Falling Down

Yesterday was my day with Kendall.

I picked her up and had to stop at our church for something on the way home.

It is in the middle of nowhere.

No cell phone service, no close neighbors.

I had this thought. 

What if I fell on all this ice,

with Kendall,

and no one around? 

I was so careful.

Later in the day...

I left the shop with Kendall in arms and banking and mail

to go the post office and bank.

Not.

Being.

Careful.

I fell.

Legs out from under me, smack down on the tailbone,

Fell.

Kendall cried. 

Wallowing around on the ice,

I checked her.

Scared, not hurt.

Her, that is.

Me, on the other hand.

Instant headache, nauseated and dizzy.

It was a good hit.

JWS, on the phone, in the office, missed it.

I went back to the shop to check my wounds.

He told me about his fall and showed me his elbow.

I might or might not have said something bad to him.

In my dizzy, sick, pained state, I could not be held accountable.

Thankfully, I think a quick trip to the chiropractor might have fixed things. 

I guess I'll know later today when I can or cannot move!

Finished this penny rug last night. 

Love these little instant gratification items!

No chance to get bored with it and throw it down.

 And this one also.

Great for coasters.

 And speaking of coasters.

I found these at the hairdressers a couple of weeks ago.

He was selling them for the personal care home in town.

I was just commenting the other day that I hoped that my grandchildren would soon be old enough to make these.

I think I added...or able to sit still long enough to make them.

I am not holding out a lot of hope for the oldest two.

Dug out some scrapbooking stuff and made these boxes yesterday.

It was fun to play with paper and glue for a change.
