Today started out just like any other.. tired start.. trekking fast to get to work on time..I met up with Val enroute to get our bus to work and mindlessly chatted about the trials and tribulations of being a mum...and wanting to get a jumpstart on calls that may have to be addressed when I got to my desk.. I started with messages and chatted with the girls in the office and wasnt till almost noon when I decided to drop off information on my supervisor's desk.. it was then that the incident occured..I do remember my right foot stopping and then everything else kept going.forward..I was going to fall and my arms felt slow on the trigger to stop me from diving to the floor (so unable to extend out to prevent falling)I felt my face hit the floor and my glasses pushed upward while my right arm took the brunt of the trauma.. damn.. .I lay swearing my head off..hearing Andrea...in the distance.."Is that Deb.?". .."should we be wondering if she needs help?"...I knew she was joking but my stomach was doing summersaults and I felt like I was going to puke...so I couldnt say anything more constructive than F@#$k!!! I couldnt move and my left hand pounded while the right forearm lay like it was plastered to the rug...DAMN!F..K!!Gawd how freakin stupid.. what caught my foot??..WTF?????.. After a few minutes of being asked questions that now are far removed from my mind I was moved to a chair and had my arm propped up with a pillow and I was flushed and needed water or I was gonna hurl.. the pain was excruciating... and soon my Supervisor ( and friend) Kelly would ultimately whisk me to Urgent Care and sit with me for the rest of the day to find it was a minor fracture which would easily mend..( tell that to me when the pain relievers wear off..gawd Im such a wussy)...It was embarassing but I did notice that everyone in the office had rushed to see if I was okay... they are so sweet.. a great bunch of people to work with...
Other than the fact I could have thought of so many better things to do to get a day away from the office
..this wasn't one of them....Pain..Agony ..Hurt..Sore...Ouch!!
