Hello, my favorite Tuesday peeps! The first day of October! Whoa! I’m now officially a month behind on getting my fall decorations up. I had glorious plans to do that over this weekend, but I thwarted my own plans. Remember my cracked rib from a couple of weeks ago?

Apparently, I invoked Murphy’s Law by commenting to the hubby on Friday about how my rib felt much better and that I could get the fall decorating done over the weekend. A few hours later, I was trying not to step on one of the dogs’ tails and tripped.

Thwack! I faceplanted on the hard kitchen tile floor, only this time I hurt my left ribs. I guess I wanted to even things out, eh?

I felt myself going down – this time, I didn’t do a tuck and roll (probably since I’m right-handed, and since my previous rib injury was on the right side, I did a tuck and roll on that side, so this time I just put my hands out and landed on my right wrist and left elbow then blammo! I felt my left ribs contact the floor. But I didn’t hear a snap, crackle, pop, or crunch, just the ‘thwack’ sound of me hitting the floor. But oh, the instant pain!

Another online visit to my doctor’s office had me answer a slew of questions (most of which the answers were “no,” which thankfully meant no breakage and no need to go to urgent care an hour away). Tylenol and lidocaine patches have (mostly) been my friends, though Friday night’s sleep was elusive since the pain was so great, but Saturday night and Sunday night were just a wee bit better. Once I get to the point where I’m not involuntarily yelping in pain doing things like, you know, breathing, it’ll be a good day.

Well, at least I have this many days until Christmas – if I can avoid being a klutz between now and then, I’ll actually get my holiday stuff done…heh!

Countdown to Christmas
