The stupid things we do

[Marschy]

Getting the Ezytrail ready for sale and I had the lid up to keep the tent top out of the way while I did a bit of maintenance of the electrical enclosures.

Anyway, had to get the top down which is normally a two man job, so (here it comes). I climbed up and put my torso over the top of the camper to get my body weight to bring the lid down.

Well the lid came down, a lot quicker than I thought it would, flung me off the top of the camper, I landed on my back, half way over one of those portable parasol umbrella's bases.

Now the proud owner of two fractured ribs in my back.

Could've been worse though, I could have broken my good hand that I wipe my bum with, the missus wouldn't have been happy, let me tell ya.

Ouch!!!!!
However 'worthless'

Could have had one of your drones flying overhead to capture the moment?

[Jeepers Creepers]

Clumsy bastard...... 

At least all I did was mix acid and chlorine.

[Marschy]

Starting to lose count of how many time I've broken bones. That's the third time I've cracked or fracture ribs. At least this time is low on the back and doesn't hurt when I breathe.

When I saw the doc this morning he had his stethoscope in hand and said "Give me good cough". I only found out later it's to put pressure into the thorax to pop the ribs back in place. Hurt like blazes.

Just in case you need to know Marschy, a friend, known for getting himself into predicaments had taken some Fleet in preparation for a colonoscopy.  He felt fine for several minutes so disregarded the written and verbal advice to stay close to the dunny.  Instead he took the long walk up the driveway to collect the mail.

With mail in hand he started to recognise some rumblings in his neither regions, so hastened back to the house, 150 metres or so away.  His wife, knowing what he's like was laughing as he duck-waddled towards the steps (Queenslander) trying to make a beeline for the dunny he should never have left.

At about the foot of the steps, he lost it, so to speak.  His wife's only concession, was to hose him down. There's a good chance your missus might take the same approach!

That's what I mean. You say to yourself, I shouldn't be doing this, but the cocky part of your conscience says "You can do it, what are ya waitin' for"

ooohhh. I feel for ya Marschy.

Can you still lift a beer?

[Marschy]

Haven't raised a beer to my lips in over a year. My wife has a nice bottle of red sitting on the shelf that she won't share with me, and my bad conscience is nagging me again, "Should I wait for her to go to bed then sneak a glass?". But I don't want any more busted ribs.

Thanks for the concern though, yes I can still raise a drink, and the umbrella stand is fine. LOL.
