Stepping on a rake doesn't just happen in cartoons!

Look at my beautiful fall colors, tis the season. I was working dillignetly in the yard trying to get it ready for winter, when all of the sudden, out of the blue...or green in this case, a bright orange handled rake jumped up and cracked me in the eye. After I realized what happened, and the stars and chirping birdies stopped spinning around my head, I began laughing hysterically. That abruptly stopped when my vision turned to red and I saw blood pouring down from above my left eye. I was at home with 5 children (my 4 and one of their friends), Willy was at work and unavailable. None of the neighbors were home to help watch the kids so I could go get checked out. After an hour of calling around, I was able to take the girls to Mel's friends and the boys to Liam's friends. Willy later met me at the urgent care, somewhat reminiscent of our early dating days when we spend the night in the ER after I got a penny shot into my eye by our dear friend Nameless. It was a nice date, and if the stitches are crooked, its because Willy kept making the Dr. laugh with his...well, jokes, if you can call them that. At least I still have an eyebrow!

Fall Family Fun!
