Today I made a mistake that lasted for less than a minute and will cost me at least a whole day to clean up.
I made a trip to the grocery store today and somehow I managed to leave my purse in the cart when I returned it. About 30 seconds later I figured out what I did and ran back for the purse that was already misappropriated. In less than a minute, literally.
The police were called, panic ensued and as of just a few hours later someone has been arrested and I have my purse and ID back. Of course the cash was gone - Merry Christmas, and I'll have to spend an as yet undetermined amount of time trying to figure out which credit cards are gone and cancelling a bunch that I should have cancelled a long time ago. But even worse than the cash, which was not a tiny amount is the feeling I have that just isn't right. It feels awful and makes me nauseous.
I'll post more as soon as I figure out how I really feel about the situation. My emotions are conflicted right now.
