• Friday, March 21, 2008 - Frost, Birkenstocks and stairs

So, as many of you know, I'm really clumsy. On Monday I took a spill down the stairs at a friend's house. They were the outside stairs and there was a heavy frost. I was wearing Birks, so had no tread on my shoes. I fell halfway down the stairs then bounced off the stairs and fell the rest of the way down a hillside. I landed at the bottom on a cinder block, on my bottom. I'm ok, nothing is broken, but I'm bruised up. I have a weird triangular shaped bruise from the corner of the cinder block. Not fun!
I must rave about a homeopathic remedy. I've been using Arnica gel for the bruising on my shin. I do believe that it is helping. It helped the swelling go away quickly and it is not nearly as bruised as the *other * area where I can't put the gel.
So, word to the wise kids...be careful when wearing slick shoes on wooden stairs covered in frost.
