The Fallen

 Avoiding the light from the computer doesn't mean somebody should kick electricity off. Hmm, tricksters! Well truth be told, parts of BC had suffered windstorm and first snowfall. The lights on but flickered in our place not a blackout or brown out situation. Would you believe the "flicker situation" had our TV off and computer offline for about 10-15 minutes. At least, not one hour. Maybe that's an over all "switching time and space."

S-W-I-T-C-H

So it was at 7 AM when the snowfall begins. We had about 2-3 inches of snow on the ground on the yard. I noticed that the huge old oak tree in the neighborhood had its two branches broken and the two branches hanging down from its trunk down at the parking lot.  It should be cut down or else it might cause accident. That's what happens when oak tree leaves from the branches are still attached or haven't fallen yet. Then the heavy snow could have impacted the weight and had broken the branches. Whatever. The owner of the building should know better or tenants over that building should report it to their landlord.

My sister and my brother-in-law came to visit. She just had a laser lasik surgery on her eyes because of cataract. She's only 65 years old and recently retired from work. She's always having surgery after surgery. I couldn't believe it. She said that she's not alone. Some of her co-workers had cataract too. Hmm, so it's true what I read in Medical Encyclopedia about those workers working in retail outlets using "machines." Its the blue light that can cause such eye condition: cataract, glaucoma, blindness.

My sister had two leg injury on her knees. She had two surgeries. Her two knees are made of steel now. I told you she is not alone. So many workers had those problems with legs, knees and ankles getting hurt. How many times you get injured or had fallen on slippery snowy, wet grounds? My niece also had a fall on snowy ground. I had fallen twice already on snowy ground while shoveling snow, thank God the snow was so thick and soft that I was not really hurt. I had fallen on concrete ground, I got hurt but was able to stand up. I had fallen from the stairs while moving stuff to another house. My back, butt was bleeding. OMG! I cured myself. I know how to cure myself. Besides, I can stand up despite of the hurt and pain. Yeah weird me. If I go to the hospital probably they will have me in operating table. NO WAY. I was hit by a car and had my foot numb for several days. The car's tire had run my foot back and forth and I was able to stand up but not for long and then down crying because I cannot feel anything. Oh, thinking about it was the weirdest of all. How I can stand up after those fall? 

"Tanga!" Somebody told me. When you are at work, you have to make sure that when you had a fall, you should be at the emergency room in the hospital to have record of your injury. But because I don't feel that I was hurt when I had a fall even if its bleeding. But the sight of blood really can make me nervous. Ewan. I'm still alive so maybe I have guardian angels. lol. 🙏😇


So caution, be careful out there. Make sure you have snow tires, or chains for your vehicles. It is slippery roads and highways that you have drive with caution. Drive safely and for pedestrians to be very extra careful in crossing the streets and sidewalks.

Watched the two series: THE WALKING DEAD and THE RESORT. I don't know if the episode last night for The Resort is the finale but it was the most exciting, dramatic and most mysterious event for the cast and characters of that television series. Hmm, is there something like that? Only the author or writer of that story knows. 

THE RESORT series on Showcase seems familiar? Almost same story of my novella "Spirit Of Verona." Baka ginaya ang story ko ah. Gaya-gaya, puto maya. Hmm... maybe we should have an extension of MIDWICH CUCKOOS instead, ha ha ha ha! OMG!
