Life is unpredictable.
Life is precarious.
Walking is just continually falling without falling down.
I feel like my life is a question mark that doesn’t often turn into an exclamation point.
One thing that happens in my mind is the ever popular “what if” or “if only.” “But it didn’t happen that way” I have to keep telling myself. Reality is.
Then again, perception is reality. So, is reality real or just what I perceive?
Happy Saturday. The car didn’t make it to the collision repair place yesterday. That sucks. And is unsurprising. The towing company was super busy yesterday and they couldn’t make it happen for my car to get to the collision place. And now it won’t get there until Monday at the earliest. Probably Tuesday because we are supposed to be getting big snow starting tomorrow (Sunday) lasting through late Monday. So again, towing companies are going to put low priority on moving my damaged vehicle a long distance when they can move more cars short distances. Why couldn’t I get in a crash on a Tuesday? And during a thaw. Thanks universe. 🤓
The accident could have been much worse. Luckily the other driver tried to avoid me and I tried to avoid her. We hit left fender to left fender. No airbags were deployed. I didn’t take any pictures because it was bitterly cold and windy and I was probably a bit in shock. And as my friend SM pointed out, near death experiences (even ones like this that weren’t so near deathy) take a while for the body to process. And that’s what I am doing, processing.
And working on the Alice film. I think I have gotten about two thirds of the captions from the film and made up text boxes for them. And I tried to get one into iMovie. Took some trial and error. And I think I will have to do it a few more times to make it second nature (for now). It isn’t that hard, but it does take multiple steps which take time. Which I have a lot of just now.
Thank you LF for the apples and the visit! My socializing for the day (week?) is accomplished!
WordPress is messing around again. Now it isn’t working as expected on my iPhone. Not a huge deal, but still frustrating. Maybe I will need to change blogging platforms at some point.
Augustus for President: I didn’t follow through with my friend about the badge. Turns out that their printer was not working so I printed them out the badge inserts. And gave them another badge holder, just in case!
And it is pretty definite that I won’t be starting the trip on February 11 as anticipated. Life is that way sometimes.
Still Life
