Ahh for the love of a tree a tooth must fall......

reminded me of some of my not so "graceful" moments which caused me to just laugh till i cried or vice-versa---does it matter??

one such time was recently when i was standing on a stone and trying not to step in the foot or so of water as i was cleaning out the pipe that runs from our spring pond (we have spring water) to our lake. my foot slipped on the stone and i slid backward and butt landed in the pond. i felt like a turtle on her back--feet and arms up in the air--no real way to get up and not about to try and turn over.....a moment of panic then just started to laugh. my dog noah, a newfoundland mix, pulled me out. needed the funny, but not the jolt to my back. it was a hot day anyway and the cold, wet butt felt pretty good
