Greetings friends!
I just wanted to post a little update and apologize for not being around lately.
A wonderful doctor's visit has me on antibiotics for an infection and I made the mistake of going out and mow the back yard in the heat of the day. Well, stubborn me forgot that sun, heat and antibiotics are a no mixer for me especially on an empty stomach.
I took a tumble with the lawnmower torquing my knee falling over backwards tripping over a post landing on the concrete slab and bouncing my head off the bricks. All the while I forgot to let go of the darn thing and the blades were still going full speed. Thankfully I did not hack off any body parts but did bounce back up to finish what I was doing.
Eugene came back from where he went off to to find me in a state of confusion, exhaustion, complete and utter disarray dripping and dirty while attempting to refill the mower with gas and got me fluids and finished mowing while I cooled off and cleansed in the shower.
That's when it all hit me. The sting from the scrape of the post and splinters in my thigh brought me down in a heap and I just sat at the bottom of the tub letting the cool water splash about trying not to toss my cookies and pass out. Apparently I gave myself a concussion and am still a bit foggy today.
As I sit here with my leg elevated and ice on my knee and thigh I realize I learned a valuable lesson... I'm not as young as I use to be and not indestructible. I'm no longer the wonder woman I like to think I am and have physical limits. So no more strenuous activities in the heat of the day and when doing such, make sure someone is around in case something happens. Lesson # some billion or something...
Thanks to all that left some love and I'll try to touch base as soon as I get rid of this darn fuzziness in my head.
Much love and light to all! {{{HUGS}}
