Thankful

Guess who just got out of peeling potatoes?

Putting up some outdoor lights when a horrible little shrub of unknown nature accosted me in a most vicious way. I fought valiantly but, alas, the shrub won and vanquished me from my perch (ladder).

I thought to myself ROLL except I was a few milliseconds too late as I was already horizontal with one arm beneath me making an odd left turn. While I’m in pain, it could have been much worse. I find out Tuesday wether I will need surgery or not.

  1. Oh Linda, you SO don't need that. Not now, not this season, not any time. I hope no surgery is required and that you are right-handed. But ouch! That had to hurt a LOT. Take care and let the Boy Scout do his good turns for you! (You have a smile like the sun -- even in pain.)

  2. First, apply ice on the affected area to prevent swelling and minimize pain.
    Only then, go for an X-ray. That way, you'll have a clear evaluation of the damage, if any.
