Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving, as opposed to how I spent mine!

Hello lovelies! Do you remember that post I made a few posts back about how if there was one Polar Bear poo in the North Pole, I'd find it, slip in it, and break my bloody neck??? About how accident prone I am, and how trouble finds me? Yep, you got it!
So, on Thanksgiving I reached over (from an awkward position, I was too lazy  to take the extra step and a half!) to put the pepper away and smacked my head real hard on the oven hood. I bounced away, fell forward again and hit it hard again. As if that wasn't enough, I then fell backwards, hiting the back of my head really hard on the floor, and knocked myself out.
When I came to one or two minutes later I couldn't talk without slurring like a drunk, and I couldn't walk. I called 911, no idea HOW they understood what I was saying, but they did, and within a few minutes the ambulance took me to hospital. Long and short of it is I have spent the last few days in hospital. I still can't walk without the aid of a walking frame, but even then, not too well. My speech is better now. I'll be having physical therapy to strengthen my legs.
The moral of the story is TAKE THE EXTRA STEP WHEN NEEDED!!! Will blog again as soon as I can cos I have double vision right now, and can't see well. Be safe!
