We are well known for our rain here on the west coast. It usually
rains for a long time but it's relatively light compared to other
places. Last night was a different story. All of a sudden it poured
like a mid summer Florida storm. I in the mean time was worried
about some items outside so I went to the top of the deck stairs and
started down. Well I made it to the bottom however I was no
longer on my feet. Yes I took a fall the moment my shoe stepped
on the wet stair. My hip landed on the ground, but my rib and wrist
hit the concrete.
"GEORGE!!!!"
Well he came and got me back in the house and I was banished to
the bed for the rest of the night with ice.
My hip is bruised, thank god for that extra padding I have,
my rib feels fine but my wrist is sore.
So today I had to come up with light duty work.
I also couldn't do my other job because my PC has gone to the repair shop to be scolded and straightened out, so here I sit getting to know George's computer.
I decided to sit still, let my wrist heal and be a creative painter.
It's a beautiful serpentine dresser call *JACK*.
He's not done but I am for the night.
I also manage to finish a pair of wooden pillar candle holders made in India.
I got them at a yard sale recently to paint and distressed. The
plan is to take them to the community show next week but you'll
have to wait and see if I can give them up.
Here are the close ups of the accents I promised the other day
on the lingerie chest I finished. Let me know what you think.
