we aren't supposed to fly!

it has been a while since i have blogged. things have bee pretty busy and the year started out kind of crazy. the best was getting to visit the horns in tx , even though it was for a root canal by my wonderful grandson neal. that turned iut just fine but it was feb before the crown was on and it was all finished. the rest of feb was pretty uneventful and then on the 3rd of mar i let curiosity get the best of me. you know the saying curiosity killed the cat! well, some workmen were putting cones in the street and of course i wondered why. soooo as i was hurrying out the front door my foot came out of my shoe on the second step and i went flying onto the brick walk.
God did not intend for us to fly like that and i can attest to that. i couldn't move and am so glad that bill was home. he called the paramedics ad they delivered me to ER at kaiser. soon everyone knew i had fallen. the paramedics were friends with others i knew and the phone calls started coming the next day. anyway it tuned out i broke my pelvis and my right arm. not fuN.
the good part though it wasn't my hip! the best part is that all of my family called and i got to talk to them. now it is just taking time to heal. i will!!!!!!
bob built railings on the front porch and i Will USE THEM. will blog a picture later because tey look really great and were a lot of work. they should have been there in the beginning. of course i would have been hurrying and not used them. no more! next month will be MUCH better.

We are so glad you weren't hurt worse. I know I'm going to be one of those who fall (in my case probably often!), and I'm not looking forward to it! Can't wait to see the new rail.
We love you, and are keeping you in our prayers!
