Falling down.

Most people who know me really well know that I am a bit of a klutz. I have never met a set of stairs that I have not wanted to fall down. I have even fell down the stairs and on my way put my elbow through a glass window. That was not a fun trip. So it may come as no surprise to anyone that today I fell down, again.

I was all dressed up for church, it was getting time to leave so I was taking Yoric out for a walk before I put him in his kennel. On my way out of the patio door Yoric decided to stop on the first step, I did not realize it until I almost step on him and there I go again, falling. This time I fell backwards and I hit my head on the door-jam. I hit my head hard enough to open up a gash about 2 inches long and boy it was a bleeder. After I finished seeing stars I managed to get Yoric out for his walk and came inside, put my PJs back on and waited for my eyes to stop being crossed. After a bit I finally stopped seeing double but still had a major headache. Unfortunately, I was not able to make it to Church this morning.

I was a bit afraid to sleep right after it happened but that did not stop my body from shutting down. I had an ice pack on the egg that was growing out of the back of my head and I woke up to the sound of my phone going off. Apparently it was OK for me to sleep because I am OK now and thankfully the swelling has gone down. I hope that by tomorrow the rest of the headache will go away and I am glad that the bleeding has stopped. Ha-ha, now if only I can figure out a way to brush my hair without hurting myself.
