Woden's Day, September 12th, 2012

What a crazy day! Stayed up late. Woke up early, got ready... Go out to leave early... FLAT TIRE... So flat that leaving it as it until I got home form work was not an option. Called AAA. They came, changed the tire. Then, as luck would have it, my sister saw my post on Facebook and offered to drive us to the bus stop. Still made it to work earlier than normal, but not as early as I had hoped. I am proud to say that I think that I handled it well.

 

First of all, when I went out the first time. I saw the moon's reflection in our bedroom window, the one that faces the courtyard, it was very pretty, as if the moon was greeting me. That was nice!

I didn't panic, I did think about just calling in, but couldn't do that, not in my own head at least... I did say a little louder than I would have liked

"You've got to be kidding me!!!"

 

Anyhow, I got to work in plenty of time to take minutes at the meeting, and I was able to get my flu shot. I cut my finger on a fish hook when I was getting the tire out, so I have an appt in 25 minutes to get my tetanus and my pertussis vaccine. Not looking forward to that... Those hurt more and I already got the flu in my right arm, which I would think that means that I cannot get the other shot there, and you should get that shot in an arm that you move a lot, to help the soreness... Oh bother! Oh well, me and My Grrrl are going to go swimming tonight, AFTER we get the tire fixed.... Send positive thoughts that it doesn't break me to take care of it!

 

Blessed Be!
