Yep!!
Leaving the bank, at 5 o clock I have no idea how but I twisted my stupid ankle and splat!! My knee hit first and it was all down hill. I felt like such a idiot! Now my ankle and my knee cap hurt something fierce!! My husband and my kids just looked on in horror then helped my goofy butt up. Ok now yalls turn! Did anyone else do something voluntary or involuntary that totally embarrassed yourself today???
Happy thanksgiving my lovely ladies!!!

What can I do next?

Gosh I hope you iced it after you got home????
Ya gotta ice it initially.
Take some Motrin or Advil, to reduce inflammation and pain and swelling.
Go to the Urgent Care, to check on it make sure there is no break or hair line break etc.

Do you have crutches?

I, have fallen over my own toe.
My Husband, thinks I am clumsy.
I was never that way, until I have had kids.
I used to be able to even sprint, in high heels, and sprint up and down stairs, in heels. Easy.
Now, not so much.
LOL

It wasn't today but I twisted my ankle right before Halloween and it was far from the first time. I am always more clumsy when I am tired--and with kids that is all the time. You can get a brace from the pharmacy if you need one (if it isn't bad enough to go to the doctor). I hope you are not on your feet all day tomorrow!

Not today - but the day is young. A few months ago I decided to be a "fun mom" and run up the slide at the park. My feet slipped out from under me, I fell on my stomach, busted my lip, then cried. Yes I actually blubbed, in front of everyone, coz it fewking hurt!

answers from Portland on

Not today, but I tripped on a curb a few years ago and landed h*** o* my knees on a busy corner. My legs both seized up from the pain, and I ended up just sitting there moaning and feeling embarrassed.

But I was lucky, in a way. A fire crew half a block away was cleaning up after a dumpster fire, and apparently one of them saw me fall. Before I knew it, two big, handsome firemen were standing over me, asking all kinds of questions to make sure I hadn't had a stroke or heart attack, and then hoisted me gracefully to my feet. A happy ending!

Hope you heal quickly.

answers from Eugene on

Do you have any Arnica cream...it's a salve in a tube. Put it on your ankle and knee and the pain and swelling will go down hour by hour. You can buy it at the health food store and many pharmacys stock it as well.

Yesterday I kept bumping into other cars when I reversed. I didn't hit them hard, but didn't know what was up with me? Hubby came home from work, and he bumped into some one elses car head on. Luckily no damages, except on his own car. Broke both head lights.

I did that the other day!.....I was walking through the gravel parking lot to pick up my husbands check, in a skirt pregnant with heels (i know i know) and i fell down on both of my knees and wrists. I had to go in there bleeding and use their first aid kit. Its an oil company so im sure they have seen worse in the field but i was super embarrassed.............my hips for some reason hurt for 3 days after that.

Oh gosh, hope you feel better. Nothing yet today but I remember when I called on the zoo hospital at the LA Zoo, I walking confident until I hit some gravel and went down. I made that sales call with bloody palms, suit slacks ripped in the knees and pretty nice pumps beat up. I replaced them all after leaving the zoo and went about my day.

There is still lots of time left today!! Enjoy your day!!
