Peter & The Falling Face Deflectometer

Not a read for the squeamish.

I had donkey work last night.  I served up dinner and was about to try to refill the water buckets.  I caught my foot on something and hit the ground hard.  I think I briefly passed out.

When I came to, the left lens of my glasses was red.  My right knee hurt a lot  (lovely egg sized swelling on there now), ditto my hip and left shoulder.  Ein Volltreffer as we would say here.

I phoned the woman who runs the donkey sanctuary and told her I had to get home and could she organise someone to take over. 

Given that the wobble factor was very high, I phoned G and asked her to come to walk me home.   We managed that without me falling over.

I went to bed and spent a restless night trying to find a comfortable position to sleep.  Every time I moved, something hurt.

Consequently I'm in pain, tired and not a little grumpy.  Everything is difficult and I would dearly love an injection that would put me to sleep for a couple of days.
