Well, today I was on the receiving end of a miracle. OK, maybe not anything groundshaking. But definately amazing to me.
I fell at work today.
How is that a miracle?
It's a miracle that I didn't seriously hurt myself given the situation and circumstances. It was the strangest, wildest fall that I've ever experienced. I'm placing a large/awkward pan on the top shelf. I step up on the bar that short people use to do said task. Next thing I know, I'm on the floor, and I'm catching the pan.
I'm still amazed that I'm not hurt.
I don't know if I can relay it to you in the same way that it felt or that it happened. All I can say is that there were soooo many strange things adding up to the fact that I didn't get hurt:
Floors slippery because they were just mopped. This enabled me to slide and end up on my back instead of actually falling down. This meant that the back of my head missed the stainless steel sink. Considering how quickly I fell, I would have at the very least knocked myself out. The first part of the fall happened so quickly that later I wondered if I hadn't partly blacked out. I can only guess that instinct took over instead of actually being afraid of the fall. The last part, the pan fell from the top shelf. ( These things can hurt you falling from the top like that ) I saw it falling towards me and I first thought to protect myself with my arms. But, I caught it. I'm still trying to figure out how I didn't break my leg on the steel bar, and how I didn't really get hurt. My back is a little sore, but I'm leaning that it's more because of a 10 hour work day than the fall.
Ah well. Very strange.
I am trying to get used to my routine again. I am not jumping back into it as easily as I thought I would. I seem to be exhausted when I get home. All I want to do is sit downnnnnn. and get off of my footsies. I don't even want to stand up inside the shower.
I am currently running my foot over a plastic body massager. ( the non phallic shaped/non battery-operated type that innocents like myself use) I'm like a monkey with a toy because its about as close to the much needed foot massage i'm gonna get.
