08-05-25 Soft feet
I was filing all my remittances and PST when the morning was suddenly shattered by the sound of squealing tires and a crash. I leapt to my window to see two white cars careening on the street outside. Neither car was drivable and fortunately I was not parked where I was usually as they would have hit mine. I went outside to make sure they were ok and it turned out the woman who pulled across in front of the other was from out of country and driving her brother’s car. She asked me what to do so I called the police non-emergency line and requested RCMP attendance.
Just as I was finished I received a call from Rae asking if I could meet her at the arena to clarify the dressing room set up. We met with Sherri and Paul and can start loading tomorrow night. It’s good that we were there and I now know better what the layout is.
Back at the office I arrived to find an ambulance and the police. It turns out that the driver with the right of way had had fairly recent surgery and needed to have his back checked out. I spoke with the RCMP member and he said although it was clearly her fault because she was related to the owner of the car and ICBC has no fault insurance, they would both just have to pay their deductibles and get their vehicles fixed. Unfortunately, hers had to be taken away on a flat deck, and his was limped around the corner as he was almost home. I warned his friend that they shouldn’t drive it at all because the radiator had drained, but they took a chance.
The rest of the afternoon was less eventful and productive and at 5 PM. I had a lovely long pedicure appointment. I have even made an appointment for two days before I leave for my holiday. Afterwards, I start back at the office and completed the still to be bought list by day so that Rayann can schedule shopping trips for perishables the days of.
This evening, I did a little bit of puzzling and I am watching Pepsi, Where’s My Jet? It is very entertaining.
