So What's Next?

Do you believe in coincidence???  How about ESP????   Or the importance of listening to that voice in your head?????

This post is apropos of nothing that has to do with my usual topics – I just have to write it because I find the whole thing …..well……interesting. 

In the previous post I described my mis-adventure in Nashville, TN about a month ago.  By the end of the second day on the couch, as I emerged from a drug and pain induced haze, I began to remember a strange string of coincidences that seem to indicate that the Universe knew what was going to happen.

Clue # 1

The aforementioned wallet is merely a slim credit card case that I use when I travel.  It generally only includes my driver’s license, one credit card and some travel cash. For no reason I can account for, I included my health insurance card this time.

This ended up being important since I was at a hospital out of state and they had great difficulty “finding you in the system.”  A small code on the back of the card provided the only key that worked.

Clue # 2

At the last minute, after checking the weather report for the weekend, I removed the little back dress and the pantyhose and strappy heels it would require from my suitcase .  The forecast was for rain and the reception was to be outside; the humidity of TN would make the pantyhose unbearable not to mention I didn’t want to ruin the shoes.    I exchanged that outfit for a pair of black dress linen slacks, a light, airy blouse and a pair of fun flats.

If the roads had not flooded, I could still have worn the slacks over the leg splint and been very comfortable.  There’s no way I could have worn the other outfit!

Clue # 3

For the First Time Ever I allowed a friend to take me to the airport.  I’m such a control freak that I’m always afraid someone else will forget and make me late so I never do that.  This time though she prevailed.

When I returned home in a wheelchair and a splint, she was able to pull right up and get me and I didn’t have to figure out how to retrieve my car from the airport parking lot in Philadelphia.

Spooky, I tell you…. or maybe just happy coincidences…. you pick!

Hello!

If you are visiting my blog for the first time you will wonder where all the bloggie sort of stuff is.   If you have visited my blog in the past or have subscribed to my RSS feed you are wondering what’s happened.

Well apparently when I posted the latest story about The Yarn Shop, I inadvertently hit some unknown wrong button and it eliminated all my past posts and widgets and plug-ins and all that other stuff I know nothing about.

Now it’s hard for me to admit I screwed it up but my able VA informs me that when she looks behind the scenes as only she can do, it is obvious that I DID IT.    And, she will have a royal headache if she tries to fix it (I think that’s just an excuse not to work on the weekend).  Continue Reading »
