A little while ago I slipped on an icy porch step, and landed heavily on the concrete slab. I was able to twist while airborne, so I didn't hit the (concrete) steps. That would have been kind of bad.
I think I did fracture my pelvis, though. Right leg thinks it's got a bad poker hand; it wants to fold.
So, the One Word?
BOOM!
And here's a video clip to go with it, from Avengers: Infinity War.

Friends are everything. I couldn't have done it.
Marley, the canine waif from Afghanistan, whom WE helped save, has a Facebook page! Please drop by to see how happy he is today.
Below are my recent releases on Kindle -please excuse their presence in the body of the blog. I haven't the energy to get them up as 'buttons' in the sidebar. You can click on the covers to go to the Amazon links.
Jane, it was really a funny moment. Especially since Denali The Happy Husky, who witnessed it, wore two simultaneous expressions:
ReplyDelete1) "Oh, crap, Dad's airborne!"
2) "At least he's not going to fall on ME!"
You're always in our thoughts and prayers.
Awwww, friend. I've been praying for you since I read about your fall. Dude, what ARE we going to do with you??? ;)
ReplyDeleteYes, keep praying. That's the best answer. I so appreciate your honesty and your humor. and yes, I really, truly will keep praying for you. Hugs, friend.
Jeanne, prayers are really at the top of the list!
DeleteHugs, too.
LOVE this word, but so sad about your fall!
ReplyDeleteA word should be personal, and this is... It brought me real joy because beyond a fall, there are so many ways this could be applied! God loves a good challenge, it seems. :)
Take care of yourself! So grateful, always, for your wit and perspective...
Misty, thank you so much for this. And God does indeed love a challenge.
DeleteOuch. I cannot even imagine how that felt on your already broken and beaten up body. Sorry I haven't been around lately, no excuses... just life. But Jerry and I always have you guys in our prayers. I find it a miracle by God's own hand that you're still here and fighting, still mentally with it, and still have plenty of humor to boot. You are definitely a warrior in so many ways. Blessings!
ReplyDeleteDiana, it's so good to see you here! You and Jerry have been in our thoughts and prayers.
DeleteI think that part of the reason I am still here is because I always enjoyed fighting (and love rugby), and one more fight...bring it on! Life would be boring without battle.
Well, for me.
Blessings back!
Oh ((((Andrew))))

Delete...aw, heck. It IS funny.
Yikes, not nice.
ReplyDeleteNorma, my dear friend...yeah, it did some damage.
DeletePraying for you!
