It seems that in my old age, I am getting more and more clumsy.
Not long after we got to the lake Friday morning, we started heading down to the pier. As I place my foot on this new sidewalk area that my parents, Kristen and Matt have worked so hard on, I think to myself, these pavers are a little slippery, I need to be careful. The thought had hardly gone through my brain, when I go tumbling down...catching myself with my right knee (now my right knee will match my left knee with the scar I have from where I fell over a year ago in the parking lot at work). Steven convinces me that we should put some New Skin on it, so after going back and forth, I finally agree to it. He barely touches my knee with the stuff before I go into orbit. That stuff burned SO bad! Just imagine putting fingernail polish on an open wound...yep it did not feel so good. He has used this stuff several times and he obviously has a MUCH higher tolerance for pain...I pretty much already knew that though. Yes, I know, I am a wuss!
Now it has started to scab and actually looks a lot worse than it does in this picture.
In case my knee was not enough...I was stepping off the back of the golf cart Friday night and I caught my left leg on something...it was dark, I'm not really sure what it was. Anyways, I am sporting a nice purple bruise on the back of my leg. Sorry no pictures of the bruise.Guess my beauty pageant days are over with these scarred up legs...
