spectacular falls

i have to say that i am clumsy  i haven't always been this way  at least i like to think that  but that doesn't explain the various scars i have in various places all over my body
sorry grandchildren i am not a stoic graceful native matriarch i am more a clumsy clueless 5yr old most of the time
the reason for this blog is because i fell again outside in the dark all by myself  no one in my inner or outer circle for that matter seemed phased  lol  they were in fact quite blaise
well can't blame them    i have fallen at least five times in the last year alone i sincerely hope none of you inherit my weak damn ankles or my gracelessness
i will start with the fall the other day: about 12:30 @ nite, spring weather kinda cold kinda wet i was wearing my spiffy rubber boots.  i had taken my eagle plumes and sweetgrass to show someone of another culture i had just finished parking my SUV (yes gramma rocked a black SUV)   i was carrying said sweetgrass and plumes in my right hand and sundre items in the other  i took a stride with left foot and that foot never quite gained purchase
from my perspective the fall took a split second all of a sudden the cold wet asphalt was beside my left ear, and my hands knees and left boob hurt   then i rolled on my back  i can say with confidence that plumes DID NOT touch the ground or get wet  but they also didn't save me either did the sweetgrass lol

the fall before that was outside on the street in the dead of winter 50below  no i kid but it was coooold  i was walking to my truck right foot went to the right  left foot stayed in place right foot kept going  lol landed on left  knee and left foreman slammed the cold hard ice.  i damaged the ulna nerve  it was basically like having a funny bone for about a week   various bruises on knees

the fall before that happened in the summer @ a pow wow on PMR in july i had gone back to arbour to look for uncle cullen minding my own beeswax and i fell in a little dip in the ground a natural dip in the ground  luckily for me not so luckily for the young teens with budding romance that came to help   they were cute i remember hearing their stupid conversation before we met on the road  really?  noway?  got any smokes?  omg are u ok?   lol  meanwhile i was rolling on the wet ground holding my right ankle i try to hold onto some pride after i have fallen i just sent them 30ft down the road to the truck where kookum george was sitting waiting for me  she took me to the hospital  i got a cool brown metal cane for that one

the fall before that was @ DDCasino  i was opening my office door  i had it open and was actually kicking the door jam down  the ankle that i had my weight on gave out while i still had the other foot up kicking the door jam  as soon as i put the other one down it rolled out in the other direction  f**k did that hurt   (yes gramma swears tries not to but i do)  i don't know what kind of laws of gravity took place but i ended up with on my back with my body inside the office and my head in the hall   as i was falling i actually had the thought that surveillance would have this on tape  that one really really hurt  i crawled from the hall to my desk and cried  i got the day off and grief for missing the next couple days   don't ask they suck  lol

the time before that was @ the casino again and this was my fault i have some rockin wedges (i kinda have a shoe thing too its not real bad)  and i tried to walk across gravel in them  yah rolled out

i have had several spectacular falls  ask auntie ang about leaving me in a field in the dark when she was 8yrs old lol  i have fallen on a sidewalk in edmonton while 8mths pregnant with uncle cullen   thx to the nice gentleman that screeched on his brakes and came to help  hiy hiy  a drunken fall where i tore a tendon but didn't know because i was wearing my boots  (yes gramma was bad in her youth and wore cowboy boots)

unfortunately my death will probably have something to do with a fall  luckily i have never hit my head when i fall my knees are very scarred though  i will pray from this day forward that i don't get a brain injury but i refuse to walk around like an old lady either   maybe a bit of caution is warranted  i want to be 80 and bloggin  to you still   my babies having babies  sooooo cool i love it and i love you
