Last week blew.
Monday morning I’m climbing some concrete stairs (3 floors) to hit street level on the way to my training class. I’m all proud of myself for not taking the ‘vator and as I hit the final step my flip catches and I fly forward. The mocha in my hand lands with a kasploosh on the sidewalk and I hear the girl behind me yelp then ask if I’m alright.
Since I have a well documented history with my lack of coordination skills, I shrug it off with a “yeah, I’m fine, just clumsy” which is followed by sticking my bottom lip out and staring at the empty cup still in my hand. Damn.
Skinned toes + spilled mocha = bad way to start a Monday.
Note this is not an isolated incident, my ability to fall without cause may or may not be why my mother liked to call me “Grace” and “Clyde”.
The rest of the week sucked just as much and concluded on Saturday by not enjoying myself on date night as planned, but curled up in bed with the heating pad on my belly sleeping on and off (with the help of Rx muscle relaxers) for the better part of 12 hours while The Mc watched the Ryder Cup and attempted to otherwise entertain himself.
All bettah nah.
Other totally unrelated bit:
I found this key in the outer pouch of my purse and have no idea where it came from or who it belongs to. Mayhaps it’s the key to happiness?

Sorry about the Mocha. If you’re like me, you were more pissed about spilling that than anything else…
Don’t you just love these random little mysteries that pop up & keep us wondering…..Keeps us on our toes.

I broke a toe once wearing flip flops. That was the lords way of telling me that toe cleavage is bad. Since then I have not worn them, I have seen the light. Only sandals I wear are Keen, that protect the toes and prevent youngins from seeing my toe cleavage.
Do not ignore the waning from the lord and burn thse flip flops. Croc also fall into this category.

More proof that women (as a race) aren’t funny unless they’re falling down.
I’ll bet there were a bunch of women that were laughing really hard when you fell especially if it made it to America’s Funniest Videos.
