I make mistakes pretty much every day. . . maybe even every minute.
I could make a really long list of all of the mistakes I made today starting with: turning off my alarm and sleeping straight through what should have been my 5 mile run. Then I chose "curly hair" instead of straight and it was like a downhill slope from there. You wouldn't think that pushing snooze and then using a diffuser instead of a flat iron could play such an integral part in my day, but I think that they did.
Tomorrow I am waking up early, going running and then straightening every last piece of my hair. Lets just hope that the rest of the day follows suit and that the mistakes are held to a minimum, because I am not sure I can handle one more day of wondering, thinking and stewing over mistakes I make and wondering how, if at all possible, to fix them.
People say you learn from your mistakes, and I believe that, but seriously I think that some people just learn and they don't have to make mistakes to do so.
I want to be one of those people.

You are being way too hard on yourself. Take a deep breath, and remember---you only need to do your best NOT be perfect!
haha. i have those days alot and somehow its always Shawns fault. ahah. i need to work on that. : D
Oh Ber. I hope this is just a post about you obsessing and over reacting to the little things than an actual big mistake that you are regretting. You do things so perfectly most days, that it makes the rest of us feel good that occasionally you mess up too. :)
