Finally!

I guess not many have noticed my absence during the last weeks. I am not very active anyway. Shame on me.

But to make a long story short:

It was on July 17 that I was on the way to a bakery for some biscuits and cake when I suddenly stumbled and fell. Being in shock, I was lying in the middle of the sidewalk, no one else around, and I tried to sort out what had happened.

1. Glasses - check - everything okay
2. I need to stand up ... but I couldn't because my right arm hurt like hell.
3. What's that? A gap between my teeth? One of my incisors gone??? Help!
4. I NEED to get up and go home again to check this out. But there is blood on my bag and the pavement. Not good.
5. Finally, a car crossed the road... and passed without noticing me-only sometime later another two cars which thankfully stopped.
6. Two (young?) guys, one of them talked with me, while the other called the ambulance.
7. I was too confused to protest when they told me I had to go to the hospital for a check.
8. Emergency room. It became clear quickly that I had two minor lacerations (under my eye and at my upper lip). And a broken arm. Twice. With a dislocated elbow. The right one, of course.
9. Emergency operation, bones fixed with nails and plate.

I had to stay at the hospital for three days; since then, I have been at home. The first two weeks were difficult, but then it slowly started to get better. Still not okay, but at least I can be back at the PC for some time every day. I've already started making some icons and banners, and it works okay as long as I'm not overdoing it.

Yeah! I have missed it. And I hope to start writing again soon (not that I've written much lately ;), but it's a difference if you are not in the mood to write or if you can't write at all)

End of the story.
