It’s been one of those days.

This morning our aquarium “crashed”: for some unknown reason, most of the things in our tank died and fouled the tank, putting at risk the rest of the things in our tank.

This afternoon, while on a mission to get an extra filter for the tank, I had a car accident. An elderly female driver entered from a side-street, apparently not seeing me. I was travelling at the legal speed limit, and managed to slow down quite a bit before I hit. It felt like a very hard hit, and both cars were write-offs, but fortunately our injuries were minor.

I was taken to the hospital to be checked out, and was discharged an hour or two later. I’ve got a bumped knee, sore ribs from the seat belt, and a stiff and sore centre and left neck. The doctors said there didn’t seem to be any serious issues, but I can expect to be stiff and sore for the next week or so.

As for the fish tank? We’ve done all we can for now to try and salvage whatever we can, and all we can do now is wait and see. I’m not too hopefull, but sometimes nature can surprise you with how resilliant it is.

I hope to post again soon, especially to get the August project going. I’ll have to wait and see how I feel tomorrow. For now, I’m just going to take it easy. Thank you for your patience!
