I’m so clumsy…
Tuesday, November 6th, 2007
It’s a miracle I haven’t killed myself yet.
Honestly, I’ve injured myself in so many ways over the years, due to a combination of klutziness, lack of caution and a short attention span. Y’all probably know about the back–blew out two discs had to have emergency spinal surgery. This summer I had the mallet finger. I started physical therapy today for the rotator cuff…the problem there started when I electrocuted the stuffing out of myself right after we closed on the house. (Stuck my wet, paint-covered finger into an open electrical outlet and blew myself across the room.) The physical therapist confirmed for me today that the electrocution probably caused the muscle inflammation, covering my entire shoulder, my clavicle, going up the back of my neck. 8 weeks of therapy to start.
So what happens when I get home from my first therapy appointment? (Which I went to after flying back from a quick trip to Florida this weekend?) I come home, drop my bags, then turn around to go back out and get the mail…slip on the door mat inside the front door, go stumbling out the door and fall down the front steps off the porch, landing flat on my face, cutting myself up and spraining my ankle.
My family has decided that I need to just wrap myself in bubble wrap whenever I leave the house.
Which wouldn’t have helped my sprained ankle today since it happened right outside the front door.
Le sigh.
