Damn that Grace or A Day in The Life of Me: Part 1

This morning did not start out great....I woke up about 2AM with a headache so I crawled out of bed in hopes on finding some aspirin, on my way back I stepped over one of our many dogs but just as I was in the clear the dog lifted his head up and I whacked me toe on his head!!!! Talking about hurting, the dog was fine (I am not even sure which one it was) but my foot was killing me. It is the same foot that has the hurt toe that I may or may not have broken.

After going back to bed and sleeping a few more hours I drag myself out of bed to officially start my day. I know I have mentioned I have a dog or three and they are always very excited to get up in the morning. You see because we have 3 VERY large dogs for our sanity we keep them locked up in the bedroom at night. So after I got up and washed my face it was time to take the dogs out. 

Now I an very careful when I do this...it can be dangerous when three 70-100 lbs dogs are running down the stairs. Its like a mini stampede!!!! So I let the dogs run down the stairs and I follow them when I get almost all the way down, with only 3 little stairs left, with no explanation I fall down the stairs. Landing at the bottom!!!

Yup that's right I fell down my stairs and to make matters worse all three dogs run to me and start licking my face....talk about oh so very GROSS!!!!!

But wait it doesn't end there later this morning I was walking up the stairs and I tripped going up them almost landing on my face in the process. On my way down, in an attempt to stop the inevitable, I slammed into the wall hitting the light switch. I have no doubt by tonight I will have a new bruise from the switch and I am not 100% sure I didn't break the switch. (Don't tell The BF about that....I am planning on playing dumb if it is broken.)

I really thought I was getting better at being graceful... don't get me wrong I always have a new bruise from furniture I walk into or burns from cooking or cuts from preparing to cook or walls that I swear move but I really thought the worst of it was over.....Guess not.

I should go dig out the bubble wrap again.

UGH....I Make my Life Diffucult!!!

This morning as I was getting ready for work and contemplating my day and choice of clothes, I was frustrated more so than usual due to my lack of appropriate foot wear. Since I am now spending half my week in Logan and half my week in Brigham, I have half my clothes and shoes in each location.  

For some reason, I can not imagine why, I have only high heels at my Logan home except for 1 pair of very cute bright pink flats that I unfortunately did not have an outfit to match in Logan. I do have several outfits at my Brigham home. Normally this is not a big deal but since I have a broken toe.

I stop by my private physician's office (I call her mom) to have said little toe tapped up so that it wont throb all day. As I am taking off my measly little 2 inch heels my mom makes a crack about wearing the wrong shoes today. I shrug and say they were the shoes I had available and I have court so I couldn't wear my sneakers. But really should she have been surprised by my choice of foot wear. I have always been a believer in style before comfort.

But maybe just maybe mom was right!!!! And I should have worn different shoes because even though I have been sitting at my desk or in a court room for most the day, my toe is killing me and I am thinking of buying some orthopedic shoes if it will make the pain stop.
