Just a little fall

Aug 02, 2008 17:47

It happened again but it wasn't my fault, sort of.

Why I was standing there in the kitchen, talking to Vaughan when I had fruit & yogurt sprinkled with lecithin granules and a freshly brewed cup of hot coffee just waiting for my appetite, I do not know.  Why I didn't take it into the dining room, sit down & begin to enjoy it, and then talk to Vaughan, I do not know.

Instead I stood there with all that food & drink and proceeded to lose my balance as Vaughan extended his hand to touch my hair.  I leaned back to get out of his reach and fell, pulling my rollator which held my breakfast down with me.  Again I didn't get hurt but boy! did I make a mess which had to be cleaned up before I could get up, or before someone could get me up.  Someone would be Tim--with Steve's help.

So I waited there, flat on my back, staring into the vent on the bottom of the refrigerator, til T&V could sop up the chaos and run across the driveway for the neighbor's assistance.  About 20 minutes later I was upright, remaking my breakfast and thanking the Lord for His watch-care once again.

I think I need to work on my balance...

what i do
