Yesterday, on Make Your Own Luck Day, I had all kinds of luck.
I had the luck to have a short work day, so I could leave the house to do errands for my upcoming trip to Switzerland.
I had the luck to head back into my office at 5 PM to have a Zoom call with a colleague and friend.
I had the luck to walk to the back of the office to retrieve my off-work laptop and to step into some water on the floor, which caused me to look up at the ceiling and see a huge stain and slowly leaking water.

After freaking out about my bad luck, I had the luck to find a plumber who showed up at night.
Eddy has had the luck to look like Pierce Brosnan now and like Tom Cruise when he was younger.

Eddy also had the luck to live in Venice for many years, which I had the luck to visit in 2025.
With some luck and lots of skill, Eddy figured out the source of the leak and stopped it for the night. (Before Eddy showed up, we had turned off all the water in the house but we didn’t have the luck to stop the leak.)
We’ve now got a fan blowing on the damaged part of the ceiling …
… and with luck we’ll be able to repair that easily.
Michael and I have been discussing the luck of this happening at this particular time before I leave for Switzerland, since he never goes into that room when I’m not here.
Do you see luck in my other images for today?
With any luck, the plumbing and ceiling repairs will not cost millions of dollars.
When I went to YouTube just now, I had the luck to immediately find this:

I also have the amazingly good luck to have wonderful readers like YOU!
