I'm Just Saying............

I'm just saying it's always something....... Rosanna Rosanna Danna
Last night I went with my friends Jeannie and Susan to play bunco with another singles group, Karleen and Bev were there as well. If you know anything about bunco not everyone plays it totally the same but no matter what you goal is to stay at the #1 table. I got lucky and had a head start. I started on table 1 and once in a while I went to #2 and only once I had to go to table #3. In the end Bev and I tied for most wins and so we had a roll off and I won. It was a fun night, I had a good time, met some new people and had some good conversations. I had left my car at Jeannie's and it had been a long day I was tired when Jeannie, Susan, Karleen and I headed to our cars around 11:30. I am really not sure what happened but all of a sudden as we were crossing the street I felt myself falling forward. Now if you read my blog you know that I fell twice this winter on the ice and managed to escape with bumps, bruises, and a sore ass. Well this time I was just not quite so lucky. I thought I was catching myself but then I knew I was not going to recover. I just remember thinking this is going to hurt, then everyone says I fell right on my stomach,that I do not remember,then my chin hit the asphalt and I just heard thunk. Didn't really feel much, thought I probably scrapped my chin until I rolled over and heard Susan say "Oh Kim, Oh Kim!" I think I kind of went into shock because as they were helping me back into the house I was dizzy, sweating and sick to my stomach but I did manage to find the kitchen floor without fainting or pukeing and totally embarrassing myself anymore then I already had. After much conversation around me a call to a neighbor that is a nurse to come take a look and me just trying nog to get sick or pass out, it was decided that I really needed to go to the emergency room. Jeannie and Susan took me, they called Chris and he met us there. They stayed for a while but it was soooo busy there I kept telling them to go home they finally left around 1:30. Well the short version is after, a neck collar, because my neck and shoulder blades hurt, a neck and head CT scan and 7 stitches in my chin ,Chris and I got back to his house about 6:30am. I have to say I have one of the best son's in the world. He totally took care of me and never once complained how long it was taking that he was tired or that I ruined his weekend. I felt so bad that today he would have to take time away from his family to sleep because of me. No matter how much I feel sorry for myself, my kids constantly remind me of how blessed I really am. I have a son who is caring, kind and worries more about others then himself. He held his mothers hand as she was getting sick to her stomach as the first stitches went in(I usually am pretty tough when it comes to things like this but I think it was because it was on my face) he held my hand as we went to the car when it was finally time to go home. I love him so much, he has become my rock.

So it is always something...............at least I hit my chin and not my nose!
