“Aren’t dancers supposed to be graceful?”


Yeah, I got asked that question a lot when I was dancing, and my answer was consistently “I am when I’m dancing”.  For those who really have spent a lot of time around me, you’ll know that I am a VERY clumsy person.  I’m always getting bruised and banged up.  (I’m pretty sure I was about 2 seconds from breaking my ankle yesterday.)  A few weekends ago my SIL was spending the night at our house with her little girl and unfortunately our office/guest bedroom was nowhere near clean enough for her to stay in.  We set up an air mattress in the loft and I decided I was going to hang up a blackout curtain to try to cut out the sunlight some.  I grabbed a folding chair and I was in the process of hanging the curtain over the rod and I shifted my weight on the seat and the chair kind of collapsed under me.  I fell and hit the tv stand (and the tv! yikes!) pretty hard. As a result I was left with this lovely bruise. 


Now this isn’t the worse bruise I think I’ve ever had, but it’s up there.  I’m going to be in trouble, and debt if our kids are as accident prone as I am!
