While leaving the house at 6:30 a.m. for the garage sale, I saw a black cat in the alley as soon as I pulled out of the garage. I chanted in my head — at least I think it was in my head — “Don’t walk in front of me. Don’t walk in front of me. Don’t walk in front of me.”
The cat walked in front of me.
Did I mention it was black?
Not quite the way to start the day; especially that early!
We are home now and we are both safe and sound. I will sit very quietly this evening; no need to tempt fate.
No ladders, no mirrors, no cracks — OH MY!
