I have been a klutz for many years now. I trip over tree roots, cracks in the sidewalk, and many other things! Lately, I can't seem to get out of bed in the night to make those bathroom trips without falling out of bed! I have some really awesome bruises that people comment about when they see them. The reason for this is that when I am falling out of bed I hit the night stand almost every time! I have moved the night stand further away, and put a night light on it! Nothing has worked! So the other night I fell out of bed and hit the night stand. I righted myself and then I tripped over the blanket that I had taken down with me on the first fall. The huge bruise on my arm wasn't enough for me apparently!!! At the end of my bed I have a cute wooden bench that I discovered was much harder than I realized!!! Landing on the arm of the bench let me know just how hard hat wood was! I managed to somehow end up half on and half off the bench. It hurt quite a bit and my whole left side was swollen!!! I of course wore my compression garment just in case I caused myself a little more than a bruise. A few days later I accidentally saw my stomach in the bathroom mirror (I avoid mirrors when not wearing clothes! I am definitely middle aged and gravity works!!!) and was horrified!!! My whole left side was black and purple, swollen and the last of my staples had been pulled loose!!! Here is the awesome thing about this fall... It broke up a lot of scar tissue!!! I no longer have the pain from the scar tissue in that area! The Lord used my klutz ability for the better!!! I can wear my T-Shirt of the falling stick figure saying I menat to do that today for sure!!!!! :)
