"Never put off till tomorrow, what you can do today."
~~Thomas Jefferson~~
This quote has been ringing in my ears since Friday!
I had just wrapped the last Christmas present & was hurrying outside to cut some fresh evergreens to put in a glass vase with cranberries & a floating candle,... like THIS ONE
when I tripped on the garage steps & fell down 3 steps!
I shattered the vase in my hand & cut it in at least 7 places.
It took several stitches to close up a few of them.
My foot & ankle got progressively more swollen &
painful but the x-rays showed no broken bones.
I may have torn some ligaments & will perhaps
need an MRI it doesn't improve by next week.
I felt like such a KLUTZ!!!!!!!
Thank goodness, most of my holiday preparations were done
however.....
Christmas Eve's dinner changed from beef tenderloin, scalloped potatoes, etc. to having my daughter pick up Chinese carry-out on their way over.
We sang "Fa Ra Ra Ra Ra" around the table & still had a wonderful time!
Needless to say, typing is difficult & slow,
so I'll just use my right hand to upload some Christmas photos
from around the house.
