Getting Old
For the whole of September and the start of October I have been ill. I feel like I have become officially old.
After guests left at the end of August both Jan and I have had the most horrendous hacking cough. Bad enough for me to have to use an asthma spray to be able to clear my lungs. Then, when that was coming to an end, I fell backwards and injured my hip and banged my head. I have never fallen in my life. Today I feel that my back problems are coming to an end, a bit like me!
I'm not really sure why I fell but I was down on my haunches checking the car tyres at a garage and it was a very windy day. I fell backwards and gave my head a really good smack against something hard. The lump has now gone as has every ounce of self respect.

Well that's no fun. Pleased to hear that you are on the mend now. I know I shouldn't laugh, as it could have been serious, but the image of you being toppled backwards by a gust of wind made me smile!
ReplyDeleteAnother first, I acted like a sail.
