The fall

Last Sunday after my 10,000 step walk in the woods I dragged my left toe on the carpet and fell on the carpeted floor. It was great because I was actually able to get my left hand out in front to attempt to break the fall. The last three fingers took the brunt of it pretty much bending them all straight up.  Today on Thursday the pinkie finger finally showed some black and blue bruising. I will need to do this many many more times since it seems to be the only willful movement I have of my left arm.
