Clumsy? Well I don't know what you'd call it. I think it's a short from the

feet to the brain. For me I'm the same, I fell over my two feet and curb in

August. Just plain walking. Fell flat on my face. Hit my knee and right wrist.

This was in broad daylight in front of shoppers. An older man ran to my rescue

but I was sooooo embarrassed. I'm so thankful I didn't have that extra 77lbs on

me. I would have probably really damaged more than my pride. I'm still

recovering on the knee even though it was just a bad bruise. Take care of

yourself.

Sorry you missed out on some good shopping time. Probably saved you some

money, huh?

Ann, are you sure your not related to Regina? No seriously, I have days

when I get dingy and clumsy. Someone had mentioned at church that they

had fallen while cleaning it the day prior. I jokingly said that no one

else had EVER fallen at church. Prior to surgery, I must have fallen at

church at least 3 or 4 times - once really bad.

Can you afford to pay an entire battalion, though?

Your case is a lil different than theirs.

If you can, hire the 45th Infantry Battalion. That will keep my hubby closer

to home. He leaves for Afghanistan tomorrow night. PLEASE HURRY.

About a month ago, I fell at the Bible outlet store .. I tripped over the

wooden blocks that the small children sit on.. and hit my knee.. huge bruise,

and my elbow on the inside. My elbow still hurts many weeks later.. I am

wondering now if I have fractured or chipped a small bone.. I guess I am clumsy

too..

or maybe just unlucky..LOL

Peachy hugs,

I'm working on it Jac. Not looking too good though. I would bring him

Well, I know he would stay if he could. Last night, I about gave him heart

failure. He just doesn't trust me alone, and maybe that's got some merit to

it. I was sitting in my recliner, giving out puppy treats. Somehow, one of

my foster dogs (I do rescue work), and one of my dogs got into a snarlfest,

and my big foot was in the way....6 hours and 15 stitches later, I was home,

from the emergency room, and without pain medications (try getting a

prescription filled at midnight). Fred was frantic. And pissed at me for

trying to just pass it off with putting a couple of Band-Aids on it. And we

were both very thankful that He sent us to stay with me right after

he left. She took me to the hospital, and will take care of things here

while I heal. It's one of those, " When God closes one door, he opens a

window " things. I am so thankful to have her here, even if she does drive me

nuts with her 19 year old ways.

Yeah, I know you are. Maybe sharing some other's injuries will keep you from
