dropped the ball


Sigh!
i missed yesterday because of a huge stroke of good or bad luck, depending on your outlook.
the good thing? only a mild concussion
the bad thing? taking a huge spill in the slick street into a pool of sodden leaf muck and mud charlie brown style (think lucy pulling the football away from him at just the right moment and pow! on his back) with dogs in tow.
nina and gigi were on their bestest behavior, (good thing) when the neighbor who witnessed the whole thing ran to help me out of the street and on to the sidewalk, the girls sat nicely with no barking, no pulling, and no jumping. they made me proud. they of course, gave me tons of kisses while i was down for the count and looking at the sky, as if to say, 'mama, what are you doing down there?' with their heads cocked to one side and in gigi's case, her little black eyebrows raised in an expression of worried concern.
so here i am today, extremely sore, no huge bruising yet, and able to hobble around and almost turn my head.
until tomorrow dear readers, i'm off to take a shot of robitussin (did i mention i developed a huge case of bronchitis this am? stress-related? cosmic joke? one never knows) before i turn in for the evening.
