Good Wednesday morning to all my dear precious family & friends! Thought I would let you know I didn’t do a Humpty-Dumpty. Oh, you know the fairy tale, “Humpty-Dumpty had a great fall and all the witches in the land, couldn’t put Humpty-Dumpty back again.” Or something like that, never was great at fairy tales, lol! I have had several asked me what happened, my reply, “heck if I know?” Kade and I were walking up the path to the office, everything was fine. It was a little chilly but I didn’t think a thing about it. We walked up to the sidewalk and my foot hit the first paver and that is all I remember. My feet flew in the air, my rump hit the ground and my head hit the concrete border we have down both sides of the walkway. I did knock myself out but I was more concerned for the concrete border (I was afraid I might have cracked it, lol).
Kade went flying to the back door raising hell. He got their attention, they all came running out of the office. I had blood all over the side of my head, my shoulder, and down the side of my shirt. I looked like I had been in a fight with a bobcat and lost big time. Well they all panicked when they saw me and immediately called an ambulance. By this time, the ambulance company ought to have our address memorized by now. The ambulance showed up and I was in and out of it. Really didn’t want to take an ambulance ride. I just wanted to just lay on the ground because my head was killing me. The attendants raised my head up and of course, I hollered. When I hollered, they thought I might have broke my neck also. They found the gash and of course, it needed stitches. So off we go,, They wrapped a bandage around my head and put my neck in some kind of gadget that looked like a space ship had landed on my shoulders.
It seemed it took forever to get to the hospital, the sirens blasting like to have killed my head. It never seems to fail, when you are in pain, it feels like that every bump they hit sends pain shooting all over your body and I don’t think they missed a one.. When we actually managed to make it to a bed, the doctor cane in He cleaned up my head and found the gash in my head. It is about the size of your index finger. They put in 6 staples and they forgot to deaden the area, medieval torture, I tell you. They finished the staples, checked my scans and decided I hadn’t broke my neck or done any permanent damage to the old brain there. But they wanted to keep me over night for observation. Since i have had my fill of hospitals, I decided I had enough of hospital and came home. They weren’t going to do anything anyway besides give me pain pills and I can do that here.
My head is a sore but the headache is gone. I appreciate all the prayers, blessings & warm thoughts you sent me for a speedy recovery. Thank you again.
Love ya,
Lady of the Abyss

I am sure it is going to go well. It is just a bump behind my ear with some staples in it. You ought to have been around when I had a stalker burn my house to the ground. I had to jump out a two story window to keep from being burned alive. I torn up my leg, arm, hip, and ankle. All of those were healing from a truck accident, where I was hit broad sided by a drunk driver. He flipped the truck and killed one of my familiars who was hanging out the window on my arm getting some fresh air. My arm was trapped and they thought it might have to be removed and that is when I had to have rods and pins in all of the previous mentioned spots. So a little bump on the head ought to be a breeze.

I can’t even. How do I respond to that? GAH. I’m glad you survived that. This was less bad in comparison, you might think, but if you get chance (NOT NOW – HEAL lol) go back and read some of the emails I pestered you with while you were recovering. It may just be a bump, but it was a significant injury. ❤

I will have to go back and read them. My head has hurt so bad, I haven’t wanted to do anything put lay in the bed. Oh, I forgot to mention this is not the first time I have knocked myself out either. I have pulled some bone head stunts in my lifetime to say the least. That other time I knocked myself out involved ice also. Hmm, might need to stay in the house when there is ice around, you think?

Normally, no, but given the list of casualties from Sunday’s storm… I’d say buy some YakTrax for your shoes. I love mine!

Look interesting but now we all need canoes or an ark. We are all flooded out around here now. Roads closed, schools closed, government offices closed, bridges closed, heck we are about to float off. We have houses with little mounds of earth around them and they look like a little private island. All of a sudden Kentucky has turned into Key West.They got anything that let’s you walk on walk, lol!

Thank you. It is great to see you this morning Kristen. I hope you are doing fine today. I can’t help it, I have two left feet, lol! Don’t know why I fell, just fell. I like a comment I saw earlier, I needed to be put in bubble wrap. I guess I would only bounce like a ball down the hill into the pond.
