    Yesterday, just at dark, I remembered I had not put the cover on my seedlings outside. So being very careful I went across the yard, got past the roots that are above ground by a tree I went under, and don't you know it, I tripped on a long stick hidden under the leaves. My left foot was holding it down and I caught it with my right foot and was down before I knew it. Of course, my right side is my bad side and that is the side that pulled. I landed on my hands and knees and the right side took the force of the fall. I am just a little sore this morning, but I woke up with a horrendous sinus headache. Aargh, I think I am going back to bed for a while since I feel to bad to do anything else right now.

    Sharon, I'm sorry. It appears that jinx is repeating itself on your body now. Take care.

    Ow! Darn sticks. Sounds like you need to wrap yourself up in protective padding like a football player before venturing out your door!

    Thanks everyone, I feel pretty good considering. I am not as sore as I was but then I didn't do much today, except the mall. But it was a very short trip. But now I need to go cover my plants and get my seedling in, so wish me luck.

    Yup, I'd send hubby out to cover up that stuff. Who would have thought that seedlings could be so dangerous! Hope you are feeling better today Sharon.

    Hope things are better today, Sharon. It's too cold to go out and play anyway. Here's to better days ahead.

    I have been digging all morning and haven't gotten hurt yet. I am on my way back out. It is a beautiful day for yard work.

    I've got your luck now Cajunbelle. While trying to fix my bed, I had the headboard fall on me. It's REALLY heavy and luckily my arm managed to block most of it from hitting me in the head. My arm has a scrape and a huge lump and bruise. It really hurts!!
