I Would Rather It Say She Slipped on a Banana Peel!

Usually I like to be pretty positive,
the other day started like any other,
Up early, morning coffee, some blogging,
then time for a lovely morning shower.
A while back I realized I needed one of those shower chairs
and a while back I told you how it had a slight crack in it
and had pinched my derriere in the shower,
no skin off my butt,
except actually there was,
now the battle of the shower chair continues
and it kicked more than my butt this time.
It kicked my whole body!
The battle in the shower also
affected my drawing skills too.
Like I said just brutal.
And this is what remains of the chair.
But meanwhile back in the shower,
I went down with my feet stuck in the air,
my head sort of on the back of the tub,
my stomach was probably up over the tub,
the girls were darn near smothering me,
and somehow I managed to tear my hamstring.
So if you thought I probably got up gracefully,
I would have to say I think not, okay I know not!
And as if that was not bad enough,
I had cold water pouring down on me
because I had a cataplexy spell
due to being startled when it broke,
so I don't know how long I lay there.
The good news
I did manage to get up
and get warm.
Since my adventure I have not been getting around the best.
My leg is really sore and I am amazed at the
ridiculous situations I get myself into.
Now I am going to call the 
supplier about the chair,
what are the odds this story goes over well.
That chair was supposed to help me,
it darned near killed me.
Imagine that on your tombstone,
broke chair alone in shower.
I think I would rather have it say
slipped on banana peel.
............
So how have you been?
I know I am blessed and on the mend,
and lucky me I see the humor in these situations,
but hubby has to be careful when he comes
home from work,
because when he asks
'How was your day?"
........
well he just never knows what he will hear.
Have a great week,
Be your best,
Cinner

    1. Dee even though I hurt, I do find the humor in most things. Today I called about warranty on the chair, the lady said were you using it in a tub or a shower stall. I said the tub and she said well that is the problem it is designed for a shower stall, she said she would call me back...no call as of yet. I just had to shake my head....of course you can use them in the tub....ahhhh! my leg does feel a lot better today. take care my friend.

  3. HELLO LOVE - oh my God! You poor thing - this is horrid, I feel SO badly for you. Such a scare and such possibilities for more harm. I guess I will sit ever- so carefully on my shower chair - God!

    I hope it is OK that I did give a little chuckle when I envisioned you feet in the air, boobs in your throat naked in the tub - but only for a quick moment, I swear!
    I will be praying for your full recovery and a new and better chair. Mine has a bar to hold on to.
    Love you
    Gail
    peace....

    1. Gail of course it is okay you had a laugh, I had a laugh too, funny thing is when I hurt I am one of these people that laugh and laugh....how silly is that. so of course the laughter just triggers more cataplexy. anyway I am working on getting a new chair. love you sweet friend. hugs.
