Linda’s SoCS prompt.
Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “trail/trial.” Use one, use both, use them any way you’d like. Bonus points if you use both. Have fun!
This week has been a trial, with many things going on, in work and personal life, but we got to the end of the week, the term and it’s time to breathe!
One thing was me and my clumsiness, and you know I seem to leave a trail of destruction wherever I go. Well, actually it’s not so much a trail as me injuring myself!
I tripped over my own feet and ended up taking the impact of what could have been a much worse landing, on my left hand. All good until I realised a moment later that I couldn’t bend one of my fingers! (The Middle One, ironically!) So I ended up with a dressed middle finger that I couldn’t bend and I looked like I was being rude to people!
Thankfully there was no break or fracture, or tendon damage that was apparent, but I have severe bruising of the finger, knuckles, general hand and ego! The swelling has gone down a lot, but it is still painful, and a little hard to type as fast as I usually do, but things are getting better.
Thank goodness for the two-week break from school!
But I Smile Anyway...

Hope your finger gets better soon. Even though maybe you should use it on certain ppl and situations as long as you have an excuse 😜

Ritu, I’m glad that you didn’t hurt yourself worse with the fall and I hope your two week break gives you healing and absolutely no slips, trips or falls.

Ouch, poor you. I’m really clumsy so I can definitely sympathise. I fell over the doormat in the local shop a couple of days ago and very nearly hit my head on the door button which was on a post by the door. Sigh. I hope your finger is all better soon. Hurray for two weeks off. Just one here, and lots of A-level and GCSE revision for the older two. Hopefully… CJ xx

I’ve done it and you can sweeten it with honey. Turmeric has anti inflammatory properties and heals too.
