So, here it is, time for my "opening" post for this blog and .....

It has been a very "trying day," to say the least. My sister had a minor heart attack last night and refused all day to go to the hospital,we know it was a heart attack because it is  not her first, she took her "nitro" and it subsided ... for now. I had been trying to talk her into going to the hospital most of the day, going back and forth to check on her, thankfully she lives across the street from me but still, more refusal! I asked her to do nothing, take it easy and go to bed, this, she did agree to. I decided to take her something to eat and as I made an attempt to step up on the curb in front of her house, I  misjudged my step and took a hard fall onto the sidewalk. I look back on it now and I am so glad it was getting dark and no one saw me fall.  I'm sure it would have been something to see with me going down and butter beans flying up into my face. I did receive some injuries, an injured elbow, a busted knee, I hit my head on the sidewalk and to make it worse, a badly twisted ankle but so far I have survived, suffering a good bit of pain but survived! I certainly do  hope  this is not going to be the "normal" activity before any of my following posts! I am going to keep this post short because as I mentioned a couple of sentences ago, I am in pain. I hope to continue this post later in the day but for now I must say .. later, may God bless and keep you til then.
