Hi... been a bit quiet today as I spent all morning in casualty. Got up this morning and went to check the snow on the road in front of the house by looking out of the front bedroom window. Somehow I managed to fall down the stairs. I went right over and now have a bald patch from skinning my scalp... very sore ribs and numerous other bruises. Thankfully nothing broken. :o
Before you start I hadn't been on the "falling down" juice that early, nor still drunk from the night before. ;)
I must be the only person taken to Cas. this week who hadn't slipped in the snow. :-\
OH almost fell out of the window trying to clear the snow off the sky dish.....he did get tv back though ;)
We believe you - no one else will though. Get better soon.
Don't make me laugh it hurts... despite the horse tablets. It hurts even to breathe in... ::)
Ouch!!
You can still blame the snow, though!
Take care, david, don't watch any funny t.v :)
Yes - ouch!!
Done it 3 times - when I was a few years younger.
Now watch every step, because at present age something would go = no pension for the family!!
We spent a dodgy morning dragging ladders along the conservatory roof as it was bending under the weight of the snow- OH worried more snow would fall off the roof and make it even worse. :-\ I worried for both of us and the roof. :-\
I am glad you have no broken bits Saddad but I'm afraid to say that the pain can be just as bad if not worse when there is no break. so keep taking the painkillers so you can keep moving round. No posts in the "What I did in the garden today" thread from you for a few days :( !please
Thankfully we watched all the comedy shows on I-Player last night! ;D
I did it once before (twenty years ago) wouldn't fancy it in another 20 though, Tim
Oh blimey, what a palava! Poor you. Glad you are 'ok' though and nothing broken or no stay in hospital. Do be careful!!
We've had so much snow here that my wife has spent the last week just staring through the living room window.
If it gets any colder I'll have to let her in.
;D OUCH.. ;D
take care David, i hope you did not watch, Annie Widdecom on Strictly tonight now that wouold have made you laugh ;D ;D ;D ;D.
Hope its not to long before you stop hurting.
Ow, I bruised my ribs years ago....darned painful! Take it easy and when you get better you can try the sled and a big hill instead of the stairs.
Big gentle hug..........get well again soon xxx
Thanks all.... OH had me watch "Strictly Ballroom" instead... that was bad enough :)
No water skiing for you Sadad for awhile.
I've re-read your post a couple times trying to figure out how you fell down stairs looking out the window...maybe you hit your head harder than you thought. Is someone checking your pupils regularly to make sure you don't have a sneaky subdural hematoma?
I never got into the front bedroom... walking across the top of the stairs my own "SatNav" obviously took a wrong turn... :-[
Hope you will soon be feeling better Saddad.
That sounds painful, hope you are feeling better today.
Just seen this post Saddad. I bet that hurt. I would like to know what words came out of ones mouth when you landed. Hopeyou soon feel better.
Ouchy! Hope you get better soon.
I'm confimed to the house as well after going over the top on my bike last week. Broken Ribs and damaged wrist.
I WILL NOT LAUGH AT ANYTHING! Or sneeze!
Not much breath left for an utterance?
Last time I did it, I was taking 4 trays of seed Potatoes off the stairs window sill.
No - we never did sort out the 4 varieties!!
GWS. ;) ;D ;D ;D
Next time add more water to it sadds....the things people do to get out of Xmas shopping eh ;), I'm sure your on the mend and will be out there shoveling shi....snow again soon.
I think he said he hadn't touched it??
They all say that Tim ;D
I had had a drink the night before... but not that much. I think the phrase was "Bug9er, Damm, Bla5t" Shirl..
Sorry to hear that Nick. Thanks for all the comments... but I'm not going to chuckle if that's alright with you. :)
Oh - only just took in Nick's plight. Much sympathy.
Son-in-Law did that earlier this year & had 6 fractures in an arm. As said, it is NOT for the children.
Hopefully you will be back and fit before the growing season starts.
Hope you soon feel better. Take care.
Hope you soon feel better David. Arnica homeopathic remedy is very good for bruising.
BTW have you done your Christmas shopping yet or are you just sharing the lovely muck ;).
Really sorry to hear about your fall. It sounds really painful. I hope you feel better soon.
Oh dear,hope you recover quickly.
I done that in the seventies,nasty :(
We spread the muck last week Janet...
Thank you for your comments... I'll keep taking the tablets!! :-[
Get well soon, Saddad and Nick! It's no fun when it hurts just to breathe, is it? Take care and keep warm! xxx
