Oops!
Wednesday we took a two hour trip to visit with Ann and Ken in Manhattan Beach. Annie and I were roommates our freshman year at U of Illinois. We had a great visit at their lovely beach front home. Annie cooked a delicous midafternoon dinner and we sat at the table chatting until way past sunset. This happened to be the day that it snowed in Malibu and we could see dark clouds all around our little patch of sunny beach.
Finally we realized we'd better head for home so we collected our stuff and started down the spiral stairs. Unfortunately I skipped the last step and wound up making a 5 point landing on the hallway floor. Don't know how that happened ;(. I didn't think anything was broken except my pride ( I felt like such a klutz) but by the time we got home I was in a bit of pain.
Two shoulders, two knees, one shinbone, one big toe and one little finger...owies!!!
So for the next two days nurse Jim helped me out. The worst thing is my little finger, left hand so I haven't been on the computer much at all. I don't think it's broken, just badly sprained, black, blue, red and stiff. The rest of my body parts are much better. Yikes! I was lucky not to break anyhing.
Today we welcome home the cruisers who had a wonderfully warm time in the British West Indies. After we hear all about it maybe we'll decide to cash it all in and live on a cruise ship :).
