...And that's why I wasn't named Grace...
OUCH! I managed to slam my face into the door jamb (no I'm not drunk). I have a nice red goose egg on my forehead, which by tomorrow I'm sure will be a lovely shade of purple. :eyes:

Well, at least it's the weekend and I don't have to see anyone.

Only me I tell ya...Only me

:banghead: (literally)

I need many boo-boo kisses and hugs to make me feel better. :(

3. Sistah.
Hey, I was born on a Tuesday ("Tuesday's child is full of grace..."). Don't think THAT hasn't evoked hysterical laughter from my family over the years.

I share your klutziness. :hi:

15. Well...
I was reaching around the door (actually entrace way) to turn on the TV for the little one. Turned back to walk away and BAM right in the face, on the corner molding. Ugh, now I'm starting to get a headache, that can't be good.

Thanks for all the hugs and boo-boo kisses.

22. Ice it.
I hear it makes a difference in terms of pain and bruising later on.

It's like life is always slapping you in the face, isn't it? :hug:

14. We could be twins. My mother called me Powerful Katrina when I was a kid
and I have no idea what the hell it means except the "bull in a china shop" usually followed.

Mr. Gray says to me daily, "how are those ballet lessons going".

Strap pillows to yourself. Maybe that will work.

19. Pillows...good idea
Funny thing is, I used to be a dancer and full of grace. WTH happened? I can barely walk two feet without tripping over or banging into something. :silly:

23. Please tell me that you don't have an SO that will have to explain
your bruises! My poor husband is the sweetest guy around, but I am constantly bruised from tripping over my own two feet and I also managed to nail myself right between the eyes one night walking around in the dark!

32. Being named Grace doesn't help, believe me. I think it may have actually
been a cruel joke to name someone as klutzy as me Grace.
