Utterly stupid. There is no other word to qualify my fall off a wall in my garden yesterday, dear neighbors. I stepped back, not looking, and not realizing I was four feet away from the ground… Ouch! This is how I ended up in the E.R. with a fractured bone, misleadingly named the “humerus”… I sure wasn’t laughing when it cracked!
So now I am punished: not much cooking, no bread making, no piano playing, and no gardening 😟! So is my husband: now he gets to drive me around for food shopping!
I am planning to stay in touch on this blog however, either by translating some of the recipes I already have on my French blog, or by posting items on topics dear to me, health or environment related.
For now, I will leave you for a cup of anti-inflammatory freshly brewed tea: pieces of ginger root, turmeric and white pepper. And I will not forget to eat almonds, nuts and green leafy vegetables to build up my calcium, as my kind daughter advised me 😊!
Take Care! My mother broke her humerus a few months ago and as you allude to it is not very humerous.

So true. Yet as I was in the E.R. waiting alongside other people, I thought about the victims of the attack in Manchester and told myself my pain was nothing really. Thank you for your support, Jillian!

I’m extremely sorry to hear that. I wish you a speedy recovery and am very sad that I don’t live closer as I could could take over gardening duties for the duration. Take care and rest up!

I am going to take it easy for the next few days; my arm did not appreciate the ride to the store today, in spite of my husband’s careful driving: too many “slow bumps” on the road 😖…
