The true humpty dumpty

Today, as I was leaving J's school and on the way to my car, I stepped halfway on and halfway off the curb, twisted my ankle and went down fast onto the asphalt--tried to catch myself with my hands, scraped both knees, hit my hip soundly and then my shoulder.  I mean after it was all over, I was lying DOWN on the asphalt.  Who said falling is only for the elderly?  I'm the true Humpty Dumpty in the family, although I did get up and walk (hobble) away.

Well, I will be checking on you in a day or two..
that is when I always hurt! not the day after!

You were doing quite well when i saw you, but the meds have probably wore off. Ü

I'm Stitching as fast as I can said...

Oh dear,
I do not like falls!!
Neither do you.
Neither does your Mother.
We all need to be wrapped in a nice bubble.
