    For those who need a good laugh today

    I got off work tonight early and decided to take a walk with Dude. We went down the road about 1/2 mile and then he saw a CAT. He ran and his leash got tangled around my ankle. I fell. Boy did I fall. BUT...theres more. There was a cute guy that I know who brings his little boy to our Developement center. He was walking out of his building and ran over to see if I was okay. Well, those of you who know me know that I have bad arthritis in my knees. I can't get up unless I have something to push up with. I told him I couldn't get up, so he had to put his arm around my back and use his knees to support me and help me up. The only thing I was thinking in my mind was "Thank Goodness I'm not as fat as I once was."

    I'm okay, I think. My hand is smarting from landing on it, but I think it might be just bruised. I fell on my left knee and that is swollen a little bit, but I can still move it.

    How Embarrassing!!!!

      At least the cute guy had his arm around you. I hope the knee and hand feels better real soon.

        Poor you! Darned dog, 'eh. And as Kate pointed out, you got the cute guy to put his arm around you, hmmm.... (Just joking) Hope you feel better soon. Is ice OK for your knee, or does the arthritis preclude using ice on bruises? Maybe a tube of bruise cream would be a good investment?

          ouch. Glad that fellow came by to help you up. Ice that knee and palm, elevate it and and use some compression or the swelling tomoorow will ache worse then just Arthritis does. Whatever you do don't heat it for 48 hours to allow the leaking tissues to seal back up.

                      Oh Becky! I'm sorry about your embarassing (and painful) moment. I tripped over my behemoth of a son's shoes last weekend and landed on my knees and left hand. My arm still hurts way up in the bicep area (not a good exercising kind of pain either). I feel for you. At least you had a cute guy come help you. My cute guy (son) just said "sorry...uh...when's dinner?"

                        Oh my!!! I'm so glad you're not hurt!!

                        Becky, you're not alone. Yesterday afternoon when DS and I came home, the maintenance guy was parked in my space, so I parked elsewhere. Well, after it got dark I remembered that I wanted to put my car in it's proper space, so I went outside to take care of it. I had on my brand new glasses I'd just picked up a few hours before (I lost a contact while exercising), and they are so strong they make me dizzy. Well, I got to the edge of the sidewalk by my car, and FELL DOWN off of it. Meanwhile, A car was coming up the driveway and had it's headlights on me. I can just imagine their laughter at seeing a person falling down.

                        My sister fell down a few months ago and hurt her foot so bad that yesterday they had to operate and take some bone off her chin to repair her foot. Now SHE is the queen of falling down!!

                              Now why would anyone laugh at you for falling???? I'm glad you're mending and it NEVER hurts when your hero is handsome! Well... maybe not never!
