I do hope that you are starting to feel a lot better as you read this a day or two later. I've heard of people wearing "killer heels" but it seems that those were just "killer shoes", that had conspired with the Friday pants and come up with a cunning plan to topple you! Shoes have to fit well or they are treacherous. <br /><br />BushladyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-32277583212778772412017-01-07T14:23:58.228-08:002017-01-07T14:23:58.228-08:00Carolyn, good point.

It must be so disappointing. But, you get full marks for trying. That counts! <br /><br />Brr...near freezing temperatures! Hope the orange crops, etc., aren't faced with the threat of freezing. We've had some nights where our citrus growers have had to water the crop to prevent damage on cold nights. <br /><br />Enjoy your lunch out with Middle Son and wish him a happy birthday from me. <br /><br />I will call the doctor on Monday, if the shoulder doesn't feel better. Not much they can do if it is a hairline fracture, except tell me to keep the shoulder immobile and take pain meds. until it heals. <br /><br />I am going to donate those shoes and pants, I think! :D Don't want to tempt fate by wearing them again! :D<br /><br />Hope you enjoy your weekend, Nathalie.Blesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16369267622517848850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-88045901093590904982017-01-07T12:21:20.747-08:002017-01-07T12:21:20.747-08:00Thank you, Suzanne.

My knee and shoulder are still painful, but there isn't any visible bruising, which surprises me, since I tend to bruise easily. I think, a couple of days of icing and some gentle movement will help. I took a pain reliever (Tylenol or acetaminophen, our version of Panadol which is what I used to take in Sri Lanka) before I went to sleep and that helped. Might take another one during the day if I need it. <br /><br />Those shoes are going in the next batch of donations! Maybe the pair of pants, too! :DBlesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16369267622517848850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-78873322935712401682017-01-07T10:44:58.799-08:002017-01-07T10:44:58.799-08:00Oh no!

Tiger balm stinks and stains clothes but it works so well. It's the only thing that really helped Greg when he had a bad crick in his neck several years ago. This reminds me that I ought to have a container of it in my pharmacy, I don't know what he did with the one he had.<br /><br />Rest and enjoy the weekend! And also... don't wear those shoes anymore, if they're too big it could very well be that they caused the fall. You are so lucky you didn't fall through the glass door! Good thing you could open the door for your gardener, it must have been scary for him too to witness this from the other side of a locked glass door!<br /><br />I had to cancel my crabbing outing today because of bad weather (although it looks fine now, just overcast and everything is wet and the temperatures are dropping) so I'm really disappointed about that. Tomorrow, Middle Son is coming to visit me and I'm taking him out to lunch to celebrate a couple of things, one of them being his 21st birthday. We're going to have temps in the 30s in Central Florida for the next couple of nights, yikes! I hope my in-ground pineapple plants make it!<br /><br />Have a lovely rest of your weekend. Hope your shoulder feels better soon.

My Mum's neighbour fell into a glass display cabinet and Mum said her face was a mess, stitches all the way down! So although you were unlucky, you were also very lucky, especially to have your gardener friend there to help you.<br /><br />I would definitely steer clear of those pants on a Friday and maybe the shoes aren't quite the right fit either?<br /><br />Poor DD I bet she wonders what you're going to tell her next when she rings you! :)<br /><br />Have a lovely, stumble free day and I hope the shoulder and knee are back to normal soon.
