That could have hurt...

So today I was out hanging laundry and we have this broken board on the deck RIGHT beside the laundry line. Not looking where I was going I put my foot down and fell right in!!

THANK GOODNESS there is a support beam about 6 inches down below because I stepped on that, which totally saved me from killing myself. My deck is about 15 inches up from the ground, so if I had fallen all the way through I most likely would have twisted my ankle & jacked up my knee (I have weak ligaments - I've dislocated it at least 6 times - SUPER painful).

I've been asking DH to fix that blinking board for 2 years. He says he'll do it. Then never does... I'm totally afraid of DD falling in... a 2 year old falling in would be a very, very bad thing.

:cursing:

Oh dear... I am glad you didn't fall, Jaedyn!!!

[kaylaugh]

maybe you could get an urgent care center to splint it for you...even though you escaped serious injury this time. Then scare your DH into getting off his butt and repairing it! lol

LOL Kristi!! I would TOTALLY do that if we weren't going on vacation in 5 days, lol! I have got WAY to much to do, and I'd forget that I'm supposed to be limping, lol. He'd figure me out if about 4 seconds flat, lol!!!

Oh dear... good thing you didn't get hurt. I'd be sooo ticked off at hubby... he wouldn't get supper. LOL!

I'm glad you are okay. I hope he fixes it soon.

Oh gosh Jae that sounds really bad. Im glad you were ok (probably a little sore/bruised though I bet!!)

I remember as a kid my parents were building our porch and the boards were not nailed down and I went running across because I heard the ice cream man and the board came out (a piece of plywood was there at the time where I fell through) and went UNDER the porch. My brother heard me crying and he came running too and he hit a 2x4 which was not nailed down and he hit it just right and it came up and hit him in the head and gave him a huge bump. Im sure if you were watching the scene it looked pretty funny...like the three stooges LOL

Woman, empower yourself! Got get a hammer and 4 or 6 nails and do it yourself!

I'm glad you didn't hurt yourself though :)
