An End of a Beginning

It’s been getting on to a year and a half since I looked down one evening and saw a wet patch in the carpeting under one wheel of my computer desk chair. My first puzzled thought was to wonder when I’d had some water at my desk to spill it. A paper towel couldn’t sop it up. Then, I noticed other, smaller wet spots starting to show scattered across those bits of the carpet in my “computer room” that weren’t covered in books I’d run out of space in my bookcases for. Concerned for those books I started clearing the floor, but had to stuff what I was moving into the remaining open space in my bedroom, and then the guest bedroom. More wet spots kept showing up.
