We Interrupt This Scheduled Post…..

I had planned to post about our trip to Disney we took last weekend.  SG got to spend the rest of her birthday week with all of the girls in Disney. 

But….something has since come up that I need to post about.  You see, I am not one who has had many injuries.  So when I get one, it’s kind of a big deal.  And if it has a FUNNY story to go with it, it’s a really big deal.  So here it goes….

Last night, while at football practice, I thought it would be wise to do SPRINTS with the boys.  We haven’t been able to work out this week, so I really needed to do something.  I sprinted the first round and only got beat by a few kids.  The next round, Coach challenged the boys that anyone who finished after me, would have to run because I should finish last.  Well, if you know me well, I am EXTREMELY COMPETETIVE!  I was going to prove I could do it and do it well.

I took off running (faster than I’ve ever run before).  However, this time it was down hill.  I ran over a depression in the ground and lost my balance.  I came crashing down on my face.  However, I gracefully rolled on over, got up and finished the sprint.  And I wasn’t even last!  So….without further ado, here is the proof:

 

This was Wednesday night at home:

At least the broken capillaries in my eye are healing up:)  Anyway, too bad no one had a video camera.  I’m sure we’d have the $100, 000 winner!  And to top it off, my son told me “Momma- I knew you would trip because you are old!”
