For the millionth time my memory card and my camera are in two separate locations. And it has just dawned on me that the pictures that I THOUGHT I was taking earlier actually went off to la-la land because the memory card probably wasn’t in the camera at that point either. Duh.
I’m going to blame it on my newest head injury. NEver mind the fact that the head injury was this evening adn all of the camera nonsense occurred earlier in the day.
I opened the microwave door, bent down to get out a potholder and then stood back up — in the meantime the microwave door and actually swung back partway and naturally my head connected with it. Almost instantly I could feel the muscles in my neck seize up, so I just stood there and cried for a minute. I might have said some bad words out loud, first.
Which is all by way of explaining why I’m going to just go crawl in bed and not come out again until April. Because it is FREAKING cold here in Iowa, and in bed I don’t think I can hurt myself.
Unless I fall out.
TTFN-

p.s. My Mom. She is dredging up even MORE pictures from the past. One of her holding me when I was about a year old, and then one of Mark and me the first Christmas we knew each other. Look at the glasses! What we were thinking!
Mary says
That’s a mighty festive sweater you’re wearing in that photo too!

I keep forgetting, but last night I went downstairs for Hannah’s 4 am feeding. I try not to go too quickly, what with being half asleep and not wanting to fall, but I guess I was eager. Well… I banged my head on the door frame at the bottom of the flight of stairs. OWWWWWWW. Makes me want to work a bit harder on helping Hannah drop that feeding.
Tee hee, love that sweater you are wearing, nevermind the glasses. 🙂
Deb says
Aww man, I wasn’t the first one to comment on the sweater! Did you know that the cool and hip thing this past holiday was to have an Ugly Holiday Sweater party where everyone wears the most hideous Holiday party they can find. That one might have won awards.
Deb says
It just occurred to me, maybe I should be worried that I keep forgetting that I hit my head? 🙂

Of course Mary beat me to the sweater! With the tree behind you it looks like the sewater has lights too! I had glasses even bigger than those and they were GREEN PLASTIC frames! I looked like a bug.
Alycia says
what fun to look at – did you notice how much you resemble your mom? What a gorgeous woman!
marcella says
ouch! Your story makes me wince and my head is thousands of miles away from your microwave door. Hope it feels better soon.
You’re glasses aren’t bad at all. They are pretty small for the time 🙂
The sweater might give children nightmares though. Not the best look.
KK says
Well, I love the sweater!! And you are SO YOUNG!! And very cute – both of you.
Mary Ann (mom) says
I LOVE Alicia! She said you resemble your mom and then she said what a gorgeous woman. Not sure which one of us that was directly for, but it’s aimed at both of us.
Sadly, I feel extremely un-gorgeous these days and I don’t think that’s only due to aging.
