I fell down last night and injured my tail bone and have a huge swollen area on my left leg just below the hip joint. It looks broken, but I'm not getting that searing pain you get from a break. I need more cushions in order to sit. :redface:

Oh noes :cry:! Put some ice on it!

My right eye feels like it's been pulled into my skull, I have this headache all day long, and seems like it won't go. I believe it's because some water went deep inside through my nose last night... Haha! This sounds so Evo! :biggrin:

Hey there Evo, hope you get well soon. :)

I have a why question. Why can I never find a matching pair of socks?

My daughter refused to wear matching socks when she was a teenager and a young adult.

I remember one of the first warm days of spring. I had gone shopping on the way home from work and changed into shorts and sandals before unloading the groceries. First thing I do going out the door is ram my toe into the corner of the screen door, opening up a bleeding gash. It was almost like I put on sandals for the sole purpose of being able to hurt my toe.

I remember another first warm day of spring where we took the kids to the park for a picnic. Before we could even finish unloading the food from the car, one of boys had accidentally kicked the other one in the nose, giving them a bloody nose. While I was dealing with that, one of the daughters started screaming. I ran over to her and found out she broke her arm falling off of the monkey bars. We drove all the way to the park, just so the kids could spend five minutes injuring themselves, so we could spend the rest of the day in the emergency room.
 
Fitting to a why thread.
