Hi everyone. Well the weekend as been accident prone for both myself and my hubby! Saturday hubby fell backwards in the garden and just missed banging his head on the brick wall at the back. Got away with a grazed elbow. It could have been a lot lot worse than that and he was on his own. I went flying on Sunday morning flat out and landed heavily on my left side (hubby says), my knees felt like they'd taken the brunt of the fall. My left one came up with a lump n next time I looked it had a massive lump. It felt like a bursa on top of the original lump. Lol anyhow can feel left hip as well as knee going up and downstairs. No bruising yet which is unusual for me I bruise dead easily, lol. Right back to the card I've done it for my number 2 brothers 65th birthday which is on Friday. Hope you like!

ReplyDeleteThank you so much Barbara. Those falls were in July and not the last one for me sadly. I fell at the end of November this time falling heavily on my right side. I ended up with a black eye which could have been worse as I wear glasses. Plus my right knee was badly hurt and my left knee got another knock. I'd fallen onto small stones that edge the paving we have outside the front door. Luckily I missed the small wall, that surrounds the garden, by a few cms with my head. I am so glad 2014 is well and truly over lol. Xxx
