Banged up everywhere but I am forever grateful I didnt break anything

Hugs to anyone in need
It's great to read of people voting. I sent mine through the mail a while ago. I'm pretty sure it should be fine within my state.

I'm sorry to read of your fall. I've become a bit scared of stairs, too. I had a bad fall a little over a month ago during my vacation (and went for an xray). I had a bad fall down my stairs at home, a few days ago (and went for an xray).

It sounds like you didn't get that badly hurt. I'm glad to read that. Stairs certainly hold the potential of causing severe injury. My right foot is just horrible looking. It is not as swollen today, but the bruising appearance worsens, and new bruises show up. My foot looks like one that would be in a medical student's textbook. I won't gross anyone out by posting pictures. I overdid it today. Tomorrow I'll be better. I bought a special medical boot for it. Part of my problem is that I have a high pain threshold. If Hubby hurt his foot as I have, he'd probably be in bed 24/7. Plus, I've been on the manic end, lately. That seems to increase my pain threshold even more.
