It was at a busy intersection and I could see people laughing at me. I shuffled to the side of the road and started to cry. Worst was that it was only 3 minutes into a long cycle. Not fun. Other than that the only other time lately that I can remember was in a shopping centre, but then it was more my embarrasement at sprawling across the floor in a busy mall than any actually pain. I fell up two steps. I avoided the mall for a long time.Ordinarylifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06136274266634314394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8127613511850015325.post-71779199173702876502010-10-07T13:28:16.170+02:002010-10-07T13:28:16.170+02:00I'm glad you aren't hurt too badly.

I love having the pram with me most of the time now, it means it's not as noticable. Although I don't remember the last time I had a real fall, I am always covered in bruises from banging into things.Mummy McTavishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06971283362730213835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8127613511850015325.post-91140334105598204442010-10-07T11:07:18.766+02:002010-10-07T11:07:18.766+02:00I so know "that" embarrass feelingI so know "that" embarrass feelingMarleen Swarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06816600553786398390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8127613511850015325.post-75433008326947402332010-10-07T10:24:54.705+02:002010-10-07T10:24:54.705+02:00Poor you!

All in an effort to lose some weight.<br /><br />BUT my thing is the oven. I burn my arms ALL the time - am sporting a "beautiful" burn at the moment actually.<br /><br />You see, cooking is dangerous :)Marcia (123 blog)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15581613927187600748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8127613511850015325.post-89145493561263182992010-10-07T09:35:08.061+02:002010-10-07T09:35:08.061+02:00Eina :( Not lekker at all!!
