"Owww - my wrist"

Okay, so I wasn't named Grace for a reason; I was out running the trail Tuesday morning and @ a mile and a half into my run, I found myself on the ground. I'm still not sure what even happened, but it was REALLY embarrassing, and it HURT!! I jumped up and quickly looked around to see if anybody had observed my cool dance moves (I didn't see anyone thank heavens) and continued on my way . . . thinking to myself OW, that hurt. On further inspection there was a little "road/trail rash" on my leg and elbow and a couple of chunks taken out of my poor arthritic hand. By last night I looked down and it had started bruising. I'm not sure if you can see it in the pictures but it's bruised a little down my wrist and in the thumb area.
Yep, "the bigger they are the harder they fall" I guess - I'm glad I don't make a habit out of things like this :)
So for all of my kids that love to tease me about "Ow, my wrist" - there ya go - it's official :)
YA-WHAAaa!!

Yikes. That looks really painful. And your poor arthritic hand looks really arthritic in the picture. I hope you feel better soon. You're going to look like a domestic violence victim for graduation this weekend...
