Yesterday would have been my 61st wedding anniversary.
I decided to look out some old photographs to take to a meet up with a very old friend who I haven't seen for 50+ years.
As I cant bend or kneel I got a small stool to sit on while
I looked in the bottom of cupboard.
I found out, not only can I not kneel or bend, I can't lower myself onto something low, the legs won't do it.
I crashed to the floor, grabbing a fireside chair to steady myself, that fell on top of me and I lay like a beached whale, absolutely helpless.I had fallen into the door of the cupboard which was wrenched off its hinges, splintering the wood.
As I lay there wondering what to do I looked into the cupboard and saw the photos I had been going to look for. Result.
I eventually pushed the chair off, rolled onto my front and crawled to a solid coffee table and managed to haul myself up.
I then burst into tears, thinking what could have happened
I felt like a very old lady indeed.
My GD was coming for a meal and by the time she got here I was seeing the funny side of it.
It would have made a super video .
I am bruised but unhurt.
