hadn't walked for the last few days, partly very busy, partly way too hot, so was looking forward to a nice long walk this evening.
but while in the kitchen cooking in the late afternoon, i slid on one of mookies bottle caps on the floor and BOOM! down i went! THUD! on both knees. on the hard oak floor. thankfully we don't have something like slate, ceramic, etc. thankfully i think they're only bruised. but hubby thought it best for me not to walk too much til tomorrow in case. have been icing them and think i got very lucky.
also landed on my left wrist in the cabinet that was open. thank goodness it was open! if i had done it while the ligament was torn in it a few years ago, it would've been bad news. left elbow, shoulder that i screwed up earlier in the week from lifting my bag out of the back seat of the car, and SI only a little worse. yes, got off lucky, i think, but will know better tomorrow.
it was a quite spectacular fall! hubby thinks it registered on the seismographs
with a fall like that, anyone wouldn't gotten hurt. not just us delicate flowers
