Just a big thank you for your kind words when I fell. I’m feeling much better now. It turned out that I also had a concussion that did not manifest itself until Monday. I was unaware that they can take 48-72 hours to show up. I was obedient and stayed in bed for two days and I am feeling much better now. I was very confused and dizzy on Monday, so one of my friends took me to the urgent care. My pupils were dilated and I had vomited. I honestly have never experienced the fatigue that it caused before. When my brain wanted me to rest, I had to sleep. I hope none of you ever feel that way. My brain was zapped. The doctor said it could come and go for awhile. But truly I am much better.
I decided a few years ago that I would control my life, not let my health and outside influences dictate what I do. So I am back in the saddle today. I’m not rushing anything, but just following instructions. Apparently too much rest is as bad as not enough. It’s a fine line the doctor said. Love to all, Kelly

Thanks! The scary thing about falling is that it happens so fast…one second I was standing up and next thing I knew my feet flew out from under me! Boom!
Yes, I haven’t fallen in a long time, but the ice got me. It was really my fault for not changing out of my tennis shoes after the gym. So I guess it was a very big reminder of that! I bet Oliver is really getting big!
Oh, my goodness! He is not a baby anymore, he is a little boy now! You know what I mean I’m sure. He is adorable and I bet he is so smart. Thank you for sharing this with us. 🥰
I am so glad you're doing better. I managed to concuss myself several times many years before the diagnosis, but mine were never that bad. How incredibly scary.
I am definitely not a warrior, just a bit stubborn. I have to remember that I am not 25 anymore! In fact it’s been a long time since I saw anything close to that!
I understand all too well. You are an inspiration to all of us to not sit and watch the world go by. I am guilty of being a c-ouch potato! Keep Smiling
