Fate and destiny again

Sometimes I " complain " that it wouldn't hurt winning some money at the Lottery . It certainly wouldn't but in situations like yesterday, I realize there are much more important things and we surely have something or someone looking over us.

Let's start at the beginning.  We have a wooden sofa, awful and uncomfortable thing
( sigh . . . ) and the stupid thing decided to break yesterday noon, so Dennis went to buy some metal bars to repair it. He also glued some other parts so after thinking about it, we decided to give it 24 hours and not using it.

We realized yesterday that the Olympics opening ceremony was on our 1st day of holidays and the closing ceremony was on our last one, so we thought we would celebrate a bit. Not able to use the sofa we put the camping chairs in front of it and had some cheese and wine.

The ceremony was nice. Almost at the end, there was a terrible noise behind me and I thought the ceiling was falling on us. I screamed like anything, Rhea ran for her life to the kitchen, Bubbles didn't know what to do and Dennis and I just looked at each other before looking behind us. It all happened in a couple of seconds. Well it wasn't the ceiling.

One of the book shelf broke and everything fell on the sofa, books and shelf as a cascading effect. That's normally where Dennis sits. You can see the chair he was sitting on last night, mine was close to it. Believe it or not, not a single book touched any of us nor the girls.

We were a bit shaken after that and we even allowed the girls to stay in our bedroom but that surely increases my believing in fate and destiny.

Today was very heavy weather again with low skies. I had a long walk with Bubbles

We passed by the kiddies paddle, but nobody was there today

Then I went out again with Rhea and she did really not bad, really enjoying herself. I think this system of taking them separately works well.




Project 365+1 - Day 226 : Silver

I wasn't born with a Silver spoon in my mouth and somehow I think I am thankful for that, as I believe life lessons are often better learnt the hard way.

This one has the silver color, not the material, lol !

Take care everybody, xxx
