5 o’clock morning
New snow
It happened so fast
Hidden ice
Very sore but ok
1pm
my sense of humor must be returning. I keep thinking I’m luckier than Ogden Nash’s “Pickled Bug”

Adventures Big and not so Big 
A fall? So sorry but must say the image was perfect. I love teeny tiny poems with well chosen words!!

And I love following your adventures and I feel like you are in the middle of my generation and that of my younger daughter. I’m in the Pacific Northwest and she is, in wouldn’t you know it, Min-burREE. I don’t suppose to make the world even smaller you are teaching at Ruamrudee?

A fall? Ugh! (Isn’t there a quite famous quote about pride going before it?…haha!) I am glad that you are okay and that your humor is returned! I hope tomorrow won’t find you sore (that’s always what happens to me when I do battle with the ice and the ice wins!)

Pride ( yes indeed thinking how clever I was to swipe huge armfuls of snow from my car ) and a Springer spaniel puppy Who thought the cascading car-snow was something he should try and catch… And me with the leash on the puppy… And then, crash! As for sore, definitely but washing down ibuprofen with a decent glass of red wine is a go to strategy that I hope will help.

This poem is short and sweet — like your recovery, I hope. In addition to the above prescription, laughter is also a fine medicine, so thanks for writing with a smile.

Thanks for the positive thought to end the day. That along with Icepacks, ibuprofen and Cabernet does wonders.

…very spikey, should have been wearing them, vicious looking, life-savers that attach to snow stomping boots.
