OUCH!!

I was out shovelling this morning with the scoop. The snow was heavy and I went to push the scoop up to empty it, the corner of the handle jabbed me and the pain was instant. I have either bruised my ribs or my port area. Whatever the case, it hurts like heck.


I should live in a tropical destination.

that sucks!   I wanna live in a tropical destination too!   I hate snow.  

but the good thing is that we leave for a week to go to Florida in 15 days!   whoo hoo!!!!

Don't shoot me, but I love snow. I hate extreme cold and slush.  Oh and I hate ice because I fell on the ice last night and really hurt my lower back (butt)  and banged my head.

Jet, should you call the clinic incase you damaged your port?

I went to the ER after work. They took x-rays and both ribs & port are fine. I have bruised ribs, which means limited movement for a bit.

Ouch is right!! i hope you heal fast.

Ouch is right! Not much padding there any more to absorb the impact of shovel handles, doorknobs, corners of tables and other things - right Jet? Get the feeling I am a walking klutz? I am. I always bruised easy - but moreso know - but if I run into anything it's hurts more than it did - lack of padding there too I guess. Try ice then heat to the area - wish I could reccomend motrin - but it's a no go as you know. Tylenol should be of some help. Take it easy and I hope you feel better soon!
