Monday afternoon, I went out to the garage to get some attachments for my Shop Vac. It's been pretty cold around here lately, and cleaning up the basement is a good way to stay warm and still be productive.

Well, I got about halfway to the garage, slipped on some ice, and fell down, busting up my ankle in the process.

So, now I sit here with this darn cast on my leg, just wishing I would have stayed inside. A warning to everyone, be carful out there--its slippery!

I 2nd that, ever notice the older you get the more cautious one gets, especially the part about losing ones footing. Even on dry pavement, tree leaf's and other things on the surface keep me wary and stepping lightly, especially when visting a friend in the nearby city who lives on the hill, when it's slick, that hill is a killer.

At the end of a friendly game of hockey on our pond on sunday, legs tired, lightly skating backwards, caught an edge, fell backward, hit back of head on the ice, certainly shook the cobwebs loose, have a mild concussion, am lucky that is all, took monday off, will wear helmet next time !

Sorry to hear of your injury, hope you get well soon !
