Grace in action

In a stunning display of grace and skill, late last night I managed to break the middle toe of my left foot. I was talking about the DVD we'd just finished watching. Without paying adequate attention, I turned, caught my foot under a coffee table, lifted the foot as if to step forward, snapped the toe, and then fell. I fell onto my already sore left side, messing up my knee a little and hurting my back a fair amount. The only good news is that with stretching and sleeping mostly flat, my back returned to its normal soreness this morning. I'd feared far worse, so being in only the usual amount of pain is, in this case, quite a win.

Apparently, walking and talking at the same time is sometimes too much for me.
