Hey Penny, what`s with the big foot
oh you know me, I knowingly say,
ah, you tripped over some fresh air again
Yes, must have been ... Saturday.
How did you fall on fresh air?
well, its difficult thing to explain,
one minute I am just walking around
the next, on the floor in pain.
yes, it Looks extremely painful ,
its the size of a red balloon,
oh you dont have to remind me, I say,
been at hosptial all afternoon.
Did they say that it was fractured?
nah, a sprain is all they could find,
but, they asked my husband jokingly,
if I was of sound body and mind
Well, dont mind me and my big foot!
you go ahead and all have a laugh
Ok, the doctor cheekingly said
and told the rest of the staff
Last night I just couldnt get to sleep
couldnt get comfy however I tried
So I ended up in the bathtub
with my big foot placed up on the side
Its not funny having a big foot,
But then there is something to say,
for being pampered,cosetted and waited on
by my loving husband all day.

| You really do have to watch out for that fresh air, it is quite a dangerous commodity. Invisible, just waiting to trip up some unwary 40+ person. Try not to go for a matching set! Jackie <> < |

| We're not as daft as we seem, eh, Cally?! We know which way our bread is buttered - when we pick it back up off the floor and scrape the dog hairs off it, that is!! I'm blessed with a "wee dote" of a hubby, too, who is very sympathetic to my unusual proclivities - ooops! There I go again... who put that matchstick in the way?! You portrayed this EXCELLENTLY! Hope there was a glass of champagne in that warm bath to ease the pain... after all, let's celebrate... it could have been a lot worse; could have been your cheque-writing hand! LOL Kate xx |
