The struggles of my day yesterday. :-(
What an interesting day yesterday.
I transfered money from my canadian account to one of my american accounts. In the process they seem to have lost my money. A few hundred, can be frustrating, however, this amount was much much larger. I spent over 2.5 hours in the bank waiting, disucssing, making calls, waiting more, and discussing with tellers, assistant managers, managers, custodians, candy container refillers, and of course making conversation with other customers too. I might have well just moved in for a while. After hours in the bank, they still have not found my money.
I teach personal power and remaining calm in this situation with all the tools I have in my mind/body arsenal was a challenge even for me. It was extremely difficult for me to understand someone's incompetance. It was hard for me to accept the answer, "we don't know, Mr. Savard, we cannot locate the funds in our system." I have the paper trail, so they know that they have it somewhere, they just don't know where. I found myself clenching my teeth.
Today is July 4th, all the banks are closed. My money is still missing in action. I am sure that it will turn up in the next couple of days, as long as it did not appear in someone's account, it would be a extra wonderful holiday weekend for the recipient. So, I realize that there is nothing i could do. So I decide that I will leave the fate of my money in the bank's hands.
I then prepared myself to go and do my show. Minutes before I am about to leave to go down to the LA Comedy Club at Trader Vic's, my 2 year old daughter was jumping on the bed and cracked her head on the headboard. Ugh. Poor little thing was crying so hard, and she wasn't cut thank god, but she was really hurt. Her forehead today has such a big goose egg on it, and the worst was the contact right between the eyes. She is beginning to get black eyes today, it is a shame that there is nothing I can do for her. It makes me feel helpless. She will survive. Will my money survive it's trip through cyberspace? Only time will tell.
Happy 4th of July to all of you.
