Again, here's a key for time and POV changes.

The previous night
/ Sunny /
"Ok, the meeting with the SecDef ran late but I should still make it to the bank before it closes" Samantha Liston muttered to herself as she briskly walked towards the elevators, sprinting the last few yards to enter the car before the doors closed. Waiting impatiently for the trip to the parking garages to end, Sunny began to mentally catalogue her schedule for the next day. Finally, the doors opened, freeing the elevator's passengers. Resuming her brisk pace, Sunny reached her car in record time, quickly stowing her briefcase and purse before getting into the vehicle herself.
Carefully, she pulled out of her parking spot and drove to the garage exit. Glancing at the car's clock, Sunny prayed that she would make it to the bank in less than 30 minutes. The drive was uneventful until the last mile and a half stretch …gridlocked traffic for five blocks. Cursing, Sunny grabbed her cell phone and called her secretary, informing her that she would be an hour late to work in the morning.

Close to an hour later, Sunny walked through her front door, tired and hungry. After ordering some Chinese take-out, she changed into her pajamas and fixed herself some Chamomile tea to relax. Soon her food arrived and she began to eat, savoring her favorite dish – Chow Mien. Once full, Sunny cleaned her kitchen and made her way to her room to read for a few minutes before going to sleep.

A bright bedroom joyfully welcomes the new morning. The sun bursts through the window, striking the innocent young woman, rousing her from her dreamless sleep. Glancing at the alarm clock, she sighs then turns the alarm off five minutes before it sounds. Slowly the woman stretches and then stands up, making her way to her bathroom.
! ERING !
An hour later, the beauty emerges, dressed professionally with not even a hair out of place. Leaving her bedroom, she enters her well stocked, kitchen and turns on the coffeemaker, breathing deeply as the delicious brew begins to permeate throughout the room. As she waits for her coffee, the woman prepares a bagel, spreading it generously with cinnamon-swirl cream cheese. Downing her pastry with a glass of orange juice, she packs her briefcase and pours her coffee into a travel mug. After putting on her jacket, she grabs her purse, briefcase, and coffee and heads out the door.
