I'm okay

Friday when I was going to pick my daughter up from afterschool I was running late. And rushing. Running even. And I slipped and fell down the stairs onto concrete and slid. Ouch. I scrapped all the skin off the palms of both my hands. Quite a bit of the skin off the back and fingers of my left hand. And I'M LEFT HANDED> nice right. And my poor face is reminiscent of when I hit my head on the bottom of the pool. My brother had to come pick me up from school. My wonderful big brother said "You're not really going back to school tomorrow looking like that. I would drop out. Maybe Mama and Daddy will let you change schools." Way to be supportive right. That's how I feel now. Like I got "STUPID" tattooed on my forehead. I spent most of yesterday laying in bed. I knew I couldn't skate. I couldn't even move my hands enough to put my skates on. And how could I possibly dance with somebody if I can't even hold their hands. So I drove Lexie to the rink, made her put on her own skates. And I sat & watched. After practice when we walked back out into the rink a little girl started staring at me. I said "I fell down." Sometimes you really shouldn't run. She said her brother let her write in his journal. And I felt better.
Tomorrow I have to go to work looking like this. I was a lot braver in high school. But I'm okay. And I get to say my face broke my fall.. cause that's got to be the coolest quote ever.

Doesn't he look just like me?

I've been getting a lot of awe he looks just like you when I show people my boy's pictures. My sister was supposed to be looking for a baby picture of me. I'm about 1 1/2 to 2 in this picture so not really a 'baby' in the sense that my brother and Nolan are in theirs. But you can see how much we all look alike. Check it out he does look just like me when I was baby doesn't he.
