Good! Hopefully she'll be home and you can get her out of your hair.

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!!!!:cool:

She was even civil!

I want to thank you for your support and prayers.
I thank the Lord for teaching me what I needed to learn! (Boy, that's a hard one to choke down -but I did it!)
 
Veronica...go YOU! You handle this situation so well with someone who forgets that we are ALL human. Sometimes I want to look at people and say, "Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't realize I was speaking with Mr/Mrs. Perfect". Bless and release and no that you did right.

Just another thought...don't know when the original show was, but I'm going to guess before the January 13th...submitting it today made the $30 worth 60 points. Maybe you are going to get REALLY close to this trip and that extra 30 points is going to be what puts you over. I know it sounds silly, but God does some crazy things :) Sometimes it just takes us a long while to really understand why things happen the way they do.

Go get a good night sleep tonight...you so deserve it :)

Love this way of thinking. ;)

Veronica, you deserve a huge pat on the back - no a massge - for your professionalism in wrapping up this problem. I wish I had as much grace under pressure. Thanks for a shining example of true customer care.
God bless your heart.
 
hang in there some people are very strict about no calls after 9 pm. especially out in the country. Try to call again and then bless and release. Sometime that is all we can do. Hope it works out for you. But she is not the only customer you will have.
 
Veronica, it sounds like you handled it very well. Way to go!
 
So glad that you were able to walk all the way through this chaos, and come out better on the other side! Says alot about your character!;)
 
it just shows the Minnesota Nice that people always talk about up here. Because you do did this, and from a small town it might come back as many blessings.

I learned a lot from this experience! For business and personal.

I have come to the conclusion that is was a trial I had to do in preparation for my new bible study, which starts on Sunday, The Power of a Women's Words.

The Lord was with me, keeping my tongue in check!
