Okay, it’s official. I am clutzy.
Last night after I had gotten ready for bed I decided to copy some files from my computer to disc. Of course, the disks were on the top shelf above my desk because they aren’t really something I use frequently. Usually, I just stand on my desk (yes, on my desk) in order to reach them. Not a problem.
And so I did…for a moment anyway…stand on my desk. And then I slipped.
I tried to just ’step down’, but one foot got tangled in the office chair. And at the risk of breaking my ankle when the it began to tip over, I knew that I was going to have to just fall. So I did.
And I crashed into the full length mirror on my way down. And it broke.
It’s important to remember here that I was ready for bed, so all I had on was a nightgown…ONLY a nightgown.
Did you know that full length mirrors aren’t really glass? At least not the cheapie ones from the big box store.
Did you know that those plastic glass shards are pretty sharp…especially when you are sitting on them?
Fortunately, I didn’t break anything, but I did get cut up just a little. Let’s just say that today…I’d rather stand.
