Default How clutsy are you?

Because I just splashed hot(ish) coffee in my own eye while drinking it from a cup. No burn but sheesh! I've got a drinking problem apparently!

I'm quite the klutz as well, I managed to trip down the stairs last weekend and broke my toe(and now I'm stuck on crutches) and got rug burn all across my foot.

Very klutzy! A couple of months ago I missed a step and fell and sprained my ankle (the morning I was to leave for vacation!). I'm always running into things or stubbing my toes.

I once shut my ear in a car door... I don't have large ears or anything, but I somehow managed that. I spill water in my eyes all the time. We must both just be extra talented. lol.

I'm terrible too. But lucky as well: for example I fell down those stairs (like 10 of them!)

and got nothing but a couple bruises. I never broke any bone (but countless glasses, plates and other breakable items!)

oh no, Kim! Happy to hear you didn't get hurt...

Let's just say that "Grace" is NOT my middle name... I'm constantly bumping into things, falling down, doing stupid things - never got my ear caught in the door, but I do get my hair caught in the door all the time... hee hee...

*sigh*

I've fallen down stairs more times than I can count. I always have bruises on my thighs and arm from walking into desks and tables and chairs and walls........

I'm very far from graceful myself. I would have to think very hard to remember a day when I didn't run into something, trip over something or spill my coffee etc.

In the Stephenie Meyer universe, we would be worshipped as goddesses by moody vampires.

OMG I just literally LOL'ed! I've closed my hair in the car door before... but never my ear. That's hilarious!

Very ironic to log on and see this post because I JUST fell down the stairs about an hour ago and I'm still hurting!

Add me to the huge klutz club. Last winter, I was going to use some hand sanitizer and managed to get it in my eye. Yeah, that felt good. I also am always covered in bruises.

Glad to know I'm in such good company...and yes I did think I would fit right in as a replacement for Bella many times..even better than the actress!

Yep I always have bruises on my legs. At first my laser hair removal lady was like "what is this?" and now she just ignores them.

I am just lucky I've never broken anything!

Oh and I once got the hook part of a bungee cord stuck inside my eye lid (hooked like a fish). Again no real damage but man that hurt. Sigh. Unfortunately my oldest has my genes.

LOL. I dropped a pair of binoculars on my pinky toe last night, so yes, definitely a clutz here.

I'm generally not too bad of a klutz, but stairs and I don't have a great relationship.

At the end of my wedding day (which was about 9 p.m.) We made a quick detour to my parents' house to pick up a couple things that we didn't want to ship to the base in Hawaii (where we were living at the time). I was just starting down the stairs on their back deck (about 20 steps) and slipped and slid the whole way down on my left side. I spent the first 4 or 5 days of our honeymoon with a couple cracked ribs and bruises all down my left side (ribs, hip, thigh) that were ghastly black and purple and changed several colors during our beach vacation honeymoon

I bump into stuff all the time. Ill get a bruise and my husband sees it and says what happened there. My usual response is I dont know. Unless it is some really bad fall I dont even hardly notice it anymore. My husband dropped something the other day a piece of glass I think (he was cutting it for a picture frame of mine which had the glass break). Well it landed on my foot. Luckily did not break but left a huge bruise across the top of my foot and swelled up for a few days. Not fun.

This. I have bruises so often that I don't even notice them anymore. Dh will ask me what happened and most of the time I can honestly say that I don't know.

I didn't think I was a klutz - until 2 weeks ago - I managed to trip and completely wipe out and ended up with a broken foot - in cast with crutches - NOT a good way to spend the holidays!! SOOOOO mad!!
If anyone here has ever had a broken foot - share your story with me - IE - healing times, etc...
