Default How Stupid Am I?

Don't feel compelled to answer that question .
I'm not sure how I did it, but managed to fall over in the living room last night..No permanent damage, but I sprained my right ankle and injured my left a bit..and my left arm. People thought I walked funny before..Geesh!

Sorry to hear about the tumble and the sprain.

I just tell people the floor has it in for me when I fall for no apparent reason. I've had a few sprains from that stuff, but the pride hurts most of all.

Hope you heal up soon.

I don't see how that makes you stupid, but I'm sure sorry to hear you're in pain. I remember spraining my ankle when I was about twelve, and when the doctor said that I was lucky it wasn't "more serious", I wanted to bite him. Man, that hurt.

I'm sorry for the fall, Polar. I've nearly fallen when my pets decide to walk right in front of me and then stop.....I nearly break my neck trying not to fall on them!

I hope you can rest tonight....keep it elevated and try not to walk on it.

Oh, and you are not stupid!

Your post made me smile! I just finished picking myself up off the floor Well ok, husband dragged me up off floor, then we both fell down!

I was feeling like an idiot. And really fearing that I could not even be counted on to maintain my own safety. Glad to know the floor attacks someone other than me. I'll lick your wounds if you lick mine.

AWWW PE! From one of the master acrobats to another, you are not stupid. I almost feel like making score cards to hold up when I tumble. I know my last one was a 9!!!

Sometimes I wonder why I took the carpet out and have hardwood floors. Hard to bounce off of them!
Hope your'e not too sore tomorrow. Take care and put your feet up.

Bummer, Po! But, in all honesty, I really want to know, did you look good going down? To me, it's all in the execution, dahling— presentation is everything.
