After church yesterday I went over to see my daughter Danielle and her girls. I tried to help her for a bit to get ready for the plumbers to redo the showers at the house. I do have to put a disclaimer in on this time with them... I do bruise easily!) My grand daughter's dog. Showy, was happy to see me and so were my 5 grand daughters. They greeted my on the stairs and I had to kneel on the stairs quickly before they shoved me down them in their enthusiasm!! I am sure I must have gotten a bruise or two then. (I love hearing the girls yell grandma grandma and run towards me!)
I then had to see all the girls new dance moves, twirling dresses, and hear all the latest news! While this was taking place the little girls took turns climbing up into my lap. They did this my grabbing hold of my knees and pulling themselves up into my lap. My knees are absolutely covered with little finger print size bruises!!! Gotta love those little cuties even if they do give me bruises!!! I also happen to be the biggest Klutz in the world... And I don't think that is an exaggeration! As I walked down the hall I hit my arm on a door knob really hard!!! I have a large swollen bruise on my left arm. I have a large swollen bruise on my leg... I am not quite sure how I got that one. I do remember saying ouch a few times, however, I did not expect to have so many swollen bruises!!! I have been a Klutz most of my Life! When I was walking home from school one day I got my sweater caught on someone's mailbox and about landed on my face! Another time, again, walking home from school and tripped on the uneven sidewalk. I didn't put my arms out to help break my fall instead I was too busy trying to keep my books from getting harm!!! Lol I broke a rather large piece of bone off of my elbow. Thank goodness it was my right arm so I got out of some homework!!! I have always sported many bruises at a time. As you know I am ADHD and have not always had good impulse control! I climbed a tree once and jumped from the tree to the roof. I made it with no problems!!! The problem came in when I was trying to get back to the tree from the house. As you can imagine all did not go well! I jumped from the house to the tree and slid right off the curved limb I had landed on! I was sure that I was going to die! Everything seemed to go into slow motion as I hit several branches on the way down. My guardian angel was able to get the elastic of my shorts caught on a branch! I had scratches and bruises everywhere! Just like I do now! My pain pills are kicking in and I am relaxing enough to actually fall asleep!! (I actually did fall asleep typing the last line!!! lol I hope this post makes sense... It is late and the pain pills are working and I am so tried!!! I think I might have been half asleep when typing this!!! Hahahahahhah!!!!
