Frazzled...

With Girl scout crud again. We are preparing our end of year reports and there is a 100.00 or so discrepancy between what I have deposited and what we have actually sold... of course we are MISSING 100.00.... I am so stressed out and it is making me feel crazy. I am so glad I will no longer be committing myself to Girl Scouts again. I try to help out and in the end cause myself so much stress.
As many of you already know (all 3 of you) my co leader from 2 years ago stole all of our profits from the cookie sales.... and so, I have been meticulous about depositing the money as we got it.
I am thinking it HAS to be an issue with the cookies we SHOULD have left over vs. what we DO have left over... there was so much shuffling of the cookies from one troop to another that that HAS to be where the error is... if not, I better make a lot of sales at our yard sale to give the troop the missing money.
I feel at fault and I SHOULDNT... I know I put ALL the money in the account when it was given to me. I hate this. I hate girl scouts. I hate being a volunteer. I hate handling money that isnt mine (Although I was a GREAT Bank teller back in the day where my cash balanced out EVERY day)
This is ridiculous. I wish I could go to sleep and wake up with all of this resolved. I was handling the deposits. I handled the cookie booth money.. I counted it and deposited it immediately.
There were some hands in the cookie money at the booths that probably should NOT have been in there.... but... ack. This all falls on me. Always. Even when it shouldnt.

And that's exactly why I'm not doing girl scouts anymore. I hated figuring out the money at the end of the year. Maybe you miss counted how many cookies you had or something. I hope you find it. The cookies always messed me up though ;).

Ugh! I hope it all works out for you - but I'd be letting myself get super stressed over it too - hang in there!!
