Description
Thanks to everyone that clicked commented and made my last images a favorite. I appreciate this so much.
Well, my day basically started off terrible. I was gonna go running at the track so I jump in my car and it sounded really really bad. So, I go and look at the muffler, and find the whole exhaust system gone, but the muffler. Being that it's Sunday it was a pain to find a place to take it, a place to rent a car, etc. I finally got a ride to the airport for the rent-a-car.
Come to find out punks have been taking the catalytic converters off several cars in our neighborhood, and can sell them for probably $50 at the metal scrap shop. I guess they have three types of precious metals in them. They are easy to get off. I have a SUV so there was plenty of move room under it. I was too upset, it's going to cost me about 10 times that to fix it. My insurance will pay for the rent a car, the towing and everything after my 500 dollar deductable, but I can't believe where the world is going.
Well this is the second in my series of Chelsea-Julia fractal. I guess it fits my mood, sad, but enough hope, because I did get the rent a car, and I will get to work, and I have the money to fix it. I just hope that I can move away from the place I live without too much more problems. My lease is up in October.
Have a great week. Sorry if I don't get to comment as much as I wish I could.

This is a wonderful fractal, hon, and I'm so sorry to hear about all that happening to you! Yes, the world IS like that sigh. You need to see if you can also get an alarm system put on/in your vehicle, and have it be the kind that goes off if anyone gets too near it, or touches it. I know there are some of those kinds out there--you need to do what you can to try and make sure no one goes back and does this kind of thing to your vehicle again! (they might try again, you know) It's a pain in the butt, but it might save you a lot more trouble and money in the end....just a thought. Many hugs to you.... hugs

Get a small battalion to wait for em and give them the jitters, that'll stop any more of this behaviour :)..seriously tho' you state you do not know what this world Is coming too, I would concur with that, as it sometimes leaves me completely dumfounded at what is going on?...Nutty weather all over the globe, wars, conflicts etc..Oh well, at least your fractal is something amazing, in a crazy F'd up world...Nice one sis!

Another beautiful fractal, Marnie. Sorry to hear your vehicle got sabotaged. My Wednesday evening wasn't so good either as a huge deer jumped into the roadway and smashed up the entire front end of my vehicle when we both collided. Luckily, tho, everything is covered by insurance as it is something you have no control over happening. But, what an experience.

That is way too sad! What a shame the parents aren't making sure their kids are busily doing something constructive instead of destructive. Your are work is deep, dark and gorgeous. May the rest of your week be much better than today. Bunny

love it!!stunning design. so sorry about your problem. some teenagers locally set probably more than 20 cars on fire just for the heck of it. most of the people live in a poor area and probably nothing more than liability insurance

This is a totally awesome piece. To me it has a mechanical feel to it. No pun intended. I really like this rough and sharp design. Excellent work!!!!

Sorry for all the trouble you have had, it is the same here, I couldn't leave my car out in my drive because it kept getting vandalised, and I live in a sleepy village and supposedly in a nice area, here in the UK. So now it takes up half of my small garden, so now I cannot plant as my flowers that I really enjoy. I cannot get out much and my garden means such a lot to me. I don't know where the world is going either. After all that you still manage to create a beautiful fractal, with great depth and texture, very well done! hugs Jane xx

I had been reading about people stealing the catalytic converters off cars. I'm so sorry this has happened to you. We had three vehicles vandalized 4 X in our driveway and I've had 2 stolen. We have since moved to a gated community with a 3 car garage. You still can't leave your vehicle out at night in this neighborhood either. Our next door neighbor had all the wheels stolen off his car in his driveway one night a couple months ago. It is a sad situation and only getting worse. Anyway, I love your fractal though. I really love the colors and the sharp details. Nice job!

I'm glad my small car is low to the ground. Hopefully that will keep the thieves away. Beautiful image.
