This is a picture of me and Abby after we both took a spill on the back porch. The temp dropped last night and we had some frost this morning. Abby wanted to go out so I let her out. SPLAT! Down she went. Her legs went straight out to her sides and she could not get her legs under her to get up. ( In the black square ) So I went out to help her get up. ( Help, I've fallen and I can't get up ) Just a little FYI, warm bare feet on frost makes for a very icy condition. But I'm sure that you all knew that. I just was about to her and SPLAT! Down I went. I went down on my right side. I tried to get to my knees and my right hand wouldn't stay put due to that a warm hand on frost makes ice. ( All that other stuff is me going down and then trying to get my legs under me.)
While I was flopping about, Abby got up and just watched me. She is no Lassie that's for sure!
I'm glad of two things.
1. The right side of my rump is what I fell on. Good thing I have some "junk in the trunk" So I didn't get hurt. ( A little scrape on my knees and right elbow)
2. I eat and drink a lot of dairy. Strong bones. No worries about broken bones.
Thats funny, sorry, I'm laughing. I can just imagine it. I'm glad no one was hurt.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I've got some junk in my trunk too.
I like the CSI angle. After you pointed it out I could see Abby's form and yours wallowing about. Do you remember when I sprayed my dog with mosquito dope at the cabin and when she got up there was a perfect image of her not-sprayed on the porch?
ReplyDeleteDid you get the mouse nest cleared up? See any mice? How's the chicken coop coming? Got nails?
haaaaa...very hilarious, Krissy.
ReplyDeleteGood thing you do dairy! (ice cream?)
I'm thinking you might need a nice warm bath for those achy muscles. I'm sure you will feel it tomorrow when you wake up. Be sure to get out of bed really SLOWLY.
ReplyDeleteThank heavens you are a user of dairy products!!!!
I normally don't laugh at others' mishaps... but this time, I just can't help myself! LOL! !
