Emailing Faux Pas

Yup, I did it.. Sorta like a drunk dial. I was up bright and early yesterday responding and sending emails. Well I screwed up in a huge way. I love my brother in law dearly. For the last months they borrow at least about $100-$300 a month. They always pay me back promptly. Well I was emailing a family member and I the word I used was vulture. Guess what? When the drop down menu hit to give me a list of people to send the email to, I accidentally sent it to him. I got the hurt feelings phone call late last night. Some people say there are no accidents in life. Their household brings in twice as much as mine. My income is totally dependent on how many people I can get to by a $22 steak. So I can't figure out why they must come to me monthly to borrow money. That's all. I feel horrible about hurting his feelings. This is my late husband's brother. Kenny is the one who always warned me about his brother. I appreciate very much how his brother stepped up to the plate when Kenny got sick, but I should be the one borrowing money from them, not the other way around. His wife is on SSI plus gets a settlement check every month. He doesn't work, because he was savvy enough to marry someone who has a nice fixed income. He also collects unemployment. So I just was having a bad morning looking at my finances and it came out. Sometimes I think the subconscious has more control than we know. That was more than a Freudian slip. I really don't have the balls to hurt people's feelings in public unless I am bordering on incensed. So word to the wise, when you send an email, check again to make sure who you are sending it too.
