   Tuesday night I was playing “monkey in the middle”, aka “keep-away”, with my 2 girls. They are both competitive but the youngest takes the cake. Emily through the ball to me and I missed it and the ball hit the ground. So it wasa race for the ball between Grace and I. Somehow I tripped over my own feet and landed on my chest and my cellphone in my pocket was between the ground and my chest. Ouch! I’m still in pain. I don’t know if I cracked a rib or just bruised them. It does not really matter as either way I am hurting. I felt bad as I knocked Grace down when I fell, but she was OK. At least it is on the side so it only hurts when I sit down, get up, sneeze, cough, or laugh.
   The best part was my oldest making fun of me while I was down. She thought I was faking, as it is within the realm of possibility with me to be funny. While I was down she here sister “be careful with Dad Sissy he is old and fragile”. By the way Grace made sure she got the ball before she came back and checked on me. I guess that make me monkey in the middle when we play again, maybe in a few weeks or months.
Haha! That’s a good one. Nice!
