There IS a difference!

Did you know (and of course you did, you smarty pants, you!) that when I'm doing daycare, I am going to have to have some seriously diligent record keepign abilities? Not only for the kids I'm doing care for, but for all of my expenses! I need to learn about this NOW, as much as I can!

What's funny about this is because I might be close to the least detail oriented person in the whole universe.

However, I CAN be taught.

My boss would not believe it if he read that, since I'm in chonic trouble for my lack of ability in the Little Details Department. And I mean it- there is always something I've overlooked or forgotten no matter how hard I look at something before sending it out. It is almost comical. I actually came across an email from him from 9 months ago, praising my work and my learning. Yeah, all that praise got eaten up by the Formatting Devil, who lives in Excel Hell. BUT I digress.

When it's something I CARE about, I can be taught. I, the most type b person in the world (cept for when it comes to being late to anything, which sends me into a panic and takes a lot of effort to settle myself down from), am going to have pristine record keeping abilities soon.

I am going to learn from my mother. My parents have owned their own business as long as I can remember and she is the single most organized human I know. Okay, my older sister is too. *I* did not get that particular gene. I must have swapped that gene for the "boobs" gene which I have and they don't (nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah!). I am going to ask my mom and I'm going to take notes and I'm going to be good about it all the time. It will feel good.

See? It makes a difference. You'd think that I'd be an ace at work since I hyperventilate over keeping Boss happy, but that kind of caring isn't the productive type. : )
