Embroidery, Near Miss, & Hey, I painted that!
My Mom, Shawnee and I are taking an embroidery class.
It's a bit of a drive,
and at first
I just didn't think I wanted to do that after work.
150 mile round trip
after an eight hour workday?
I almost didn't do it.
But,
it's fun
and I get
150 miles
of visiting with Shawnee.
Good times.
But, we have homework!
Did I really need another obsession?
So, I made all these crazy squares,
and have been practicing stitches,
and embellishing them.
Totally obsessed!
Perhaps that was what I was thinking when this incident happened.
I got pulled over for speeding.
Those who know me,
know I drive too fast.
But,
somehow
under the radar
because
unlike JWS
I have no tickets.
He has lots,
and lots,
and then some more.
Actually he has half of the Eastern Seaboard
covered for state tickets.
I have none,
yet.
Some quick thinking
and a quick text
and
I am forever grateful that my record remains untarnished.
I really am going to slow down,
at least in towns.
I had no business going that fast in a town
and I am embarrassed.
While I was waiting for the verdict though,
I looked over
and there on the porch,
to the left of the door,
was a tavern board
I painted
many years ago.
Of course,
I got the lecture about
why was I texting
and taking pictures
while I was pulled over by a cop.
Multi-tasking,
JWS,
Multi-tasking!
