Slam!

Boy, do I feel like an idiot today. Yesterday I was sweeping up pine needles and cleaning up after the Christmas tree, when my husband called for "Help!" from the kitchen. Being a good wifey, I got up from using the pan and brush and jogged, not shuffled, to the kitchen...and promptly went ass over tea kettle in the process. As I was turning to go through the doorway, I hit a pile of pine needles, and came crashing to the ground. I managed to wrench my back, land HARD on both my knees, and something from deep within my abdomen kind of went 'sproing'. The funny thing is that at the time all I could think of was "Good thing I'm not pregnant anymore, because that would have REALLY sucked!" Great thinking, stupid brain.

Needless to say, I spent the rest of the evening laid up with a heating pad and Advil, again. Today I'm functioning ok. A status report lists my back as still hurting, my right wrist throbs a bit, my knees are complaining, and deep within my abdomen, in the general uterine area, I ache...again.

Today, I lift my head to the heavens and say "Ok...I get it. " I have been officially given 'something to cry about'. No more wining posts from me. :)

  5. My husband wanted my help hanging a calendar. He did run to my aid, but after I (painfully) got up, the first thing I did was hobble into the kitchen to tell him how high to hang the dang calendar. At least he didn't slip on something when he was running to help me. That would have sucked.
