Down Syndrome

Well, I went down again.

This time, walking across the kitchen without the crutch. My foot caught on the carpet, and I crashed down on the open dishwasher door.

I don't think I did any permanent damage, except to my ego.

I hate feeling feeble.

  1. It is really sucks....and hurts when we stumble and fall...thankfully it wasn't more than your ego that was damaged. Take it easy...this too shall pass :)

  2. Turns out I did do damage -- to the open dishwasher door, but its repairable, and to my leg -- fortunately, my OTHER leg. Just a scrape, though.

    I didn't think I was pushing, but perhaps I was.

  3. I have a tendency to trip for no apparent reason, so at least you have a reason right now. Not that that statement will make you feel any better, but thought I would share it. : )

    My sympathies...I am reminded of an old Italian saying I heard once;

    "ottenga via da me che siete fortuna difettosa"

    Which loosely tranlated means:

    "get away from me, you're bad luck."

    ;-]

  5. That's cute, I'll have to remember it. Or perhaps just wear a sign...
