Others you are the Coyote. I think I am going to change my name to Wile Y. Coyote, after last night's escapade.

I grabbed a bag of pellets.
Knocked a 3 pound weight on my bare toe.
Quickly set the pellets down and banged my head into the pellet stove causing a giant scratch in the middle of my glasses
backed up because the stove was hot and stumbled over a dog twisting my arm trying to catch myself.

All I needed was a box of TnT and a cliff to fall off of. Now my toe and arm hurts and the scratch in the glasses is driving me nuts.

Ouch

I got a reminder of I'm getting old. Yesterday I had 2 yards of dirt delivered. I raised the flowerbeds and cleared out an area for a small garden. That was done over a couple weeks. I figured moving that dirt would be pretty easy...I was wrong. I'm so stiff and sore today LOL
 
This morning it is a comical situation. Last night there was a lot of foul language being tossed around. Yep, glad it was the glasses and not the eye.

Been there, done that.... had 7 tons of gravel dropped in the driveway on Saturday... fortunately, my son-in-law drove up and helped me with most of the shoveling... I only had to rake it out.... figured my shoulders would be shot the next day, surprisingly, it was my legs that gave out... the backs of my calves are painful to walk about.
 
When my son was small he had asthma and we used to use a cool-steam vaporizer and a tent over his bed to ease his breathing. In the middle of the night I heard him struggling to breathe and went running into his room. I stepped on a pile of comic books on the floor and my feet went out from under me. As I fell, my elbow hit the controller for his little electric train deployed on the floor. The train came to life and headed straight for my face which was lying on the track!

Now I KNEW that little train couldn't hurt me, but I just reacted...lunged back and upset the vaporizer all over myself. I still get teased about being run over by a train.
