Ouch!

 

This morning Lisa challenged me to a contest to see who could lie flat on their back and rise to their feet, unaided, the fastest. She tried cheating, of course, and seeing my victory in doubt I sped up - and slipped on vinyl flooring. I went headfirst into the edge of our formidable dining room table, scraped my left shoulder, and skinned and bruised my knee. 

While the knot on my forehead was the immediate concern, the knee swelled quickly. But after some ice, rest, and then some activity, it felt okay. 

Not the best way to greet the noon hour, I can tell you that. But I was lucky. I don't think I'm concussed, and there's no serious damage. 

Lulu hurts her wrist :(

@ st francis hospital urgent care w/ Lu (scooter related wrist injury)

While Lu's weekend ended on a sour note with the wrist injury, it started out great: Kim, a co-worker from Job Current, invited her to see the Cleopatra exhibit at MPM with her and her daughter (dutch treat). Afterwards she went with them to McDonald's and then back to Kim's house to play around the creek behind her house. Lu had wanted to see Cleopatra forever and she came back raving about the whole thing. Thanks Kim!
