So, here I am again...picking up Rick at work...again. Go to step out of the car to go over to the passenger side. Immediatly step on probably the ONLY piece of black ice in the entire parking lot.

I did a rather attractive little pirouette and land on my @ss. Well..couple arthritic hip and knees with the patch of ice, as well as the serious bruise to my dignity..I could not get up to save my life. Rick came out..a couple of the guys heworks with came out. I am sitting there in tears and they are trying to figure out how to help me up

I finally got up, and gimped over to the passenger side of the car. I have a nice brush burn on my knee.

Rick did cook me dinner though. And I am just sitting here feeling sorry for myself. :-5

And, oh by the way..on top of everything..today is our 5th anniversary!! Happy anniversary to the klutz..

Happy Anniversary Marie!:D



I feel your pain! I work with ice and I'm always slipping and falling! :yh_beatup

happy anniversary Marie...sorry about the fall



if it makes you feel any better . i went to the gas station today, went inside and got a drink, came out and filled up another car that looked just like mine..the man that owned the car just stood there talking to me like nothing was amiss...........

Hey Marie, I'm sorry to hear about this and I'm glad you weren't seriously hurt. You might be a little sore for a few days though. You have to laugh about it. That's the only way to handle these things.



One time I was eating in a restaurant where the booths were up on a ledge and you had to step down to get out. I forgot and went sailing out of the booth and landed flat on my face. In my new red coat! There was no missing me! I got up, smiled and told everyone the entertainment was free. They all laughed.



And happy anniversary to you!!

a few weeks ago I was stepping out of the car next to a curb and my foot slipped off the curb as I was trying to step onto it and I fell on my knee...ouch!

we should start a 'klutzy experience of the day thread' :wah: :wah:
