Holiday blues!


Hello friends, I hope your having fun decorating for this wonderful time of year! It's a time to be happy and thankful for all that our sweet Lord has giving us! And with that being said, I'm thankful to be alive you see my friends, I took a
bad fall from my attic, yes you read it correctly I fell from my attic and thank God all I received from my fall is a busted ankle and tons of bruises! And ohhh my the pain was beyond anything I have felt in my life, at the emergency room the doctors and nurses told me to play Lotto cause I was one lucky Chica!! Lol




Another thing I'm thankful for is that I had already decorated my home for the holidays, but never got to start christmas shopping...
Ohhhh well all in good time, I'm just happy I lived to tell this story...
Happy decorating my friends!

I feel so bad for you I hurt.
how in the world did you fall from your attic and how far did you fall? my hubby took a fall from our roof top . Landed right on his back...and came away with only the wind knoxed out of him.
I will say some prayers for you Dear.

Dear Mari,
Oh my goodness I am so sorry to read you broke your ankle. You were so lucky it was not worse falling from the attic. I so understand this pain as I broke my ankle in 2006 when I stepped off the porch and turned my foot and went down on my ankle. I still don't know how I got back into the house. I was in a cast for 6 weeks that summer.

So glad your decorating is complete. I will keep you in my prayers for prompt healing and the pain be gone too.

Thank you for stopping by sweet friend. You are so kind and I always love to see you.
Get well wishes come your way.
Blessings and Hugs, Celestina Marie
p.s. no more ladders for you. LOL

Mari said...

Celeste my sweet friend, I'm so happy you dropped by, and thank you sooo much for your prayers ;-)
I had to laugh when you said no more ladders for me, cause my mom and hubster told me the same thing...lol...
Along with my busted ankle my cousin was killed the same day I fell and two days later my stepfather passed away :-( so I'm sooo depressed...

Thanks again sweetie,
Mari
