That I may be hard to kill, but I can take a pretty good bruising. I have been laid up since Sunday when I had my annual Spring falling off of a horse. This time I fell on the road, which is a first for me, and hurts every bit as much as you would think it does---way worse than the ground or the mud. I have finally given in and called the doc for some serious meds, as nothing is touching this pain. My ribs and side hurt so bad I cannot even feel the road rash on my back, which is where I actually landed. Who can explain that to me?
Meanwhile, I have been laid up at mom and dad's house where I have been babysitting their dogs while dad has been in the hsopital in St Louis. He had tumors removed from his bladder and some chemo, and now we wait a week to see if he has cancer. SEems silly to me that it takes a week to find that out, I will have to ask Nena if that is a scientific thing or a government is ineffecient thing. They should be home tonight.
So that is why there have been no new photos to speak of--I have not been at my computer so that I could download and post, nor was I able bodied enough to take pics. I am finally back upright today though and will get back on the stick.

wow Paige, I was wondering if everything was ok, but figured you were just probably busy. Hope you are feeling better soon I've been there.
I will live, it is not my first falling off---I want to get back to the good ol days when I get pitched off a horse rather than falling off like a big dumb ass.
The doc jsut called--I am getting some pansy drugs called Vicoprophen---sounds lame. I also got a lecture about getting xrays---now you know what happens when you get xrays---all you end up with is another bill. It is not like they can do anything about cracked ribs anyway
Glad you are okay, Paige. Feel better soon.
I am glad you are okay!
Dang woman! Hope the meds make it feel better. Take care of yourself.
I'm glad you're OK, too. Sounds like you're one tough cookie.
Was in a "paige withdrawal" cause no postings BUT OMG
No wonder----- and please "listen up" and get better------your dad too

Paige, the reason it takes that long is because Pathology has to test the tissue, and a week is not bad, it took two weeks for my results.
OUCH!!!!! and you said you do this type of thing once a year?? well you have me beat! my horsey accidents seems to come in 5 year spurts.
Hope you start to feeling betting.
So which horse zigged while you zazzed??
Golly Cuz,
I sure hope you are feeling better soon. Do I need to come take care of you? You know I will if you need me. Glad to hear Dad is doing well and saying prayers for a negative on the biopsies. Give him my love. Holler if ya need me.
Well you know me Rundrums, I am an over achiever in virtually every sense. If I count things that are not my fault re: horse related injuries, it probably is about every five years.
In this case, tehre was no zig ag--just me running my mouth and leaning back turned aronud, and he walked forward. Walked may be a little tame, but he did not buck run or anything serious---I just fell plumb off.
Cute huh?
