i fell on the ice yesterday

[stilleto]

I realized I needed to bring wood in for the week. My studio is off my living room, and the wood pile is outside my studio. I didn't put a coat on and went outside to get some, but the tarp covering it was so icy and I was so cold that i just went back inside.

I put on my long, down coat, a full face ski hat, and super warm work gloves and went back outside. after wrestling with the ice on the tarp, then pulling out some wood, i went to go back into my studio but my feet had something else in mind.

The wood went one way, i went the other. it was slow and graceful and luckily the down coat and snow on top of the ice cushioned my fall. I layed there for a minute, enjoying the quiet and interesting view of the sky, and making sure my back wasn't really hurt. My daughter came out then. I had forgotten that she was standing my the french doors between the living room and my studio, waiting for me to come back in so she could open them for me (my arms were going to be full of wood).
So she peaks her head out of my studio and i'm just laying there in the snow, surrounded by wood.

"Mom, are you okay?"
"Yup"
"What are you doing?"
"Nothin'"

then she went inside and continued to watch TV.

no you wouldn't have. I did kind of fall on one butt cheek and i was worried about my hip or back, but it wasn't a hard fall.

i'm sore today, but i think it's from wrestling with the icy tarp, and some deadlifts i did on Friday.

Did she laugh?
I usually laugh when I see someone fall on. I smiled just reading that you fell.

she chuckled, but i think she was actually amused at the fact that she doesn't have a normal mother, since I just laid there in the snow.

Later, i had a horrible laughing fit that I couldn't stop (it happens a lot) because TLC kept showing commercials for a special they are doing about child beauty pagents and in the promo they show this little girl looking in the mirror and saying "I look GOOO-OOOD!" with a southern drawl that cracks me up.

I thought this was about frozen lakes. I was all set to make a joke about flotation devices.
