ACCIDENT
Sorry this is so late (9:30pm) but I had a bit of a fall today whilst out which has completely floored me, literally for a while.
Took G to Carlisle. We went to the huge second-hand book shop BookCase, had coffee there and a browse. When it got too much for G we went for lunch at Tullie House. Must stay and visit the museum properly some day.
After lunch we decicded to visit the cathedral as there are plenty of places for G to sit. Lovely staff. Not as big as some cathedrals but still interesting and a gorgeous ceiling. G sat whilst I went round with the camera. We both visited the Treasury which was very interesting.
We then decided it was time to come home.
I had parked at Damside. We went down the steps and it was just after we got to the bottom of the steps that I had my accident. It was the very uneven path, my foot just went into a very uneven bit and I literally fell, in slow motion, bouncing off the walls. I did hit my head, well my forehead and nose a little, but I could see OK, just shocked.
G was helpful but could only do so much. A very kind gentleman stopped and offered to help. He also offered to take us to the hospital as G doesn't drive. But I declined. No way was I going to spend 8-10 hours in A&E. G wouldn't be able to get home and I'd then have to drive after being too tired.
I took it steady and would have pulled in if I felt I needed too. Anyway I'm afraid once I got home, cleaned up cuts and bruises I fell asleep. Am now stiff and sore. The shock kicked in for a while but has gone again now.
Anyway hope you are all well. Stay safe and take care. I have been told by both Hubby and G that I am to stay in tomorrow, so will catch up on your Blips then.
