Title: 2012 gone to pooh
Post by: SheGold on January 09, 2012, 04:27:53 pm
 :(  Well folks I'm down for a bit... It was sleeting this morning and when I came out of my shop to go inside the house  I slipped and fell on the porch or should I say off the porch.. Hurt my foot which I landed on.. Swollen and sore no breaks.. I'm pouting big time.. I was in the middle of a portrait...  Shucks... Sheila

Really glad you didn't break anything. Just a minor set back. You will be up and going in no time. You can't keep a good woman down.  ((((((Hugggssss))))) I thought you might need that.  :)

P.S. Don't tell my wife I am giving away hugs. LOL  :D

Big, Tender HUGZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ...

Are you SURE nothing is broken? Feet are very susceptible to small breaks that may show up later.

How's the 'rump'? Bruised and battered?

Take it easy, Darlin'!

Hi Sheila, glad to hear nothing damaged, apart from your pride. You take care and get better kind of quick. Maybe a big Scottish (((((((((((((HUG)))))))))))) will help. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.
Rob Roy.

Sorry to hear about your fall.   :(  That's a bummer! But by the same token, you don't use a scroll saw with your foot!  ::) Unless you have a deadmans foot switch but, even then you can move the switch to the other foot.  ;D
Hope you feel better soon.  ;)

Good luck getting better soon. Last year I slipped down my steps and sprained my foot, I was miserable for over a week. The doctor gave me cruches for several days, they just made my arms sore. I had to keep my foot elevated and iced so I got a pillow for my workbench and put my foot up while I scrolled. My husband thought it was pretty funny, I think there is a picture someplace of it.
feel better soon.

You should always see the good part - luckily you had no finished project in your hands ;D
So now take your time. Might even be good to be forced to take a real break?

Better get hubby to fix that walk so it isn't so slick. Some rock salt or coarse sand even both will help.
Glad you didn't break anything.
Big HUG for you!

I think I have come out in sympathy with you Sheila, I fell over last night, I shattered 2 teeth and broke an inlay too. Had temp filling put in today, but got to wait till 20th Feb to get fixed properly.

Ouch!  Broken teeth hurt!  You guys have my sympathy.

Oh Sheila, I'm so sorry to hear about your fall.  Have you put your foot in a bucket of Ice Water (ice cubes and cold water) ?  It is super cold and will help take the swelling and soreness out a lot quicker then just a ice pack.  If you need to keep your foot elevated then use a ice pack mixed with cold water and ice.  


Oh Keefie, what a bummer.  I'm so sorry.  Hope the dentist will fix you up as good as new.......almost..... :(

OUCH!
Reminds me why I had them all pulled at once!
No more expensive dentist bills.
I feel for you Partner.

The pain is easing now as the painkillers I am on for my knee have taken effect. But thank you all for your kind thoughts, It won't stop me scrolling though, I've just modified Steve's Tractor parrern and turned it into a miniature clock pattern for a neighbour of mine. I'll post picture when it's finished.
