Tuesday, Week 19

Today, a lady who works at my company (she actually sits in the cubicle next to my husband) got hit by a car (they think another employee at our company was driving). She was walking from the parking lot across the highway from the office building. She was correctly walking with the cross-walk light. The driver had a green light but was turning left. So, he was clearly in the wrong. She was pregnant, due in March.

I've walked that same path countless times. If my husband hadn't dropped me off at my building this morning, I could have been walking that path around the exact time of the accident. One of Tyree's co-workers actually witnessed the accident and had to talk to the police. It makes me feel ill, the tragedy of it all. Two entire families lives have just been altered irrevocably, and all they were trying to do was go to work.

People get complacent. And, they get careless. I know I've been getting complacent about safety. There are things that you simply can't control (such as getting hit by a car), freak accidents like that. But, there are things that you can control (such as being as small as I am, playing in an ice hockey game). I need to give a bit more thought to decisions that I make. Certain risks serve no purpose. Life is fragile.

Ugh. I just found out that a water main broke at work and that the water has been contaminated. No wonder it tasted bad. I thought I was getting sick and that my taste was just off. So, I've been drinking bad water all morning... This has NOT been a good day so far. On a good note, though, it seems as though the woman at work (as well as her baby) is going to be ok. So, that is VERY good.
