Don't ever try and separate two squabbling dogs whilst carrying two mugs of tea, otherwise you could end up falling flat on your face, as I did early on Saturday morning.
My knees took the brunt of the fall and I still have terrific bruises, black, blue & yellow, from my knees down to my ankles.
I was very lucky not to break anything.
My friend Gaynor broke her collar bone a few years ago, whilst performing almost the same trick, minus the dogs.
To help pass the time I have been busy crafting.
My new obsession? Tags!
The tags below were the first ones I made and I gave them away to friends, coincidentally I gave the pink one to Gaynor.
A few weeks ago I joined a fantastic online scrap booking site UK Scrappers and last week signed up for a Tag Swap.
The photo below is of the three tags I made for the Tag Swap, and I'm very pleased with how they turned out.

and all the other participants celebrating Pink today.
I'm so sorry to hear about that fall - take care!

So sorry to hear about your accident. We must be careful. Your tags are so creative. Good idea I think. Take care of ourself. xo Jenny
ReplyDeleteGlad you didn't break anything. A cast at this time of year would be awful! It's great you are taking it easy and let everything mend. Plus you made some great tags! ~ Maureen
ReplyDeleteMaggie, I love yout tags. So sorry you had to take a fall in order to slow down. We, women, are bad about that.

Oh Maggie, you never mentioned your fall in your recent communications. I hope you have been taking or using in some way Arnica. It was so interesting to read about your new hobby especially as I am now the proud owner of one the tags you featured. Thankyou it was such a lovely surprise to find it tucked inside the book. Have a lovely weekend.
ReplyDeleteI hope you are feeling better and on the mend. I know how it feels to get tangled up in the eight legs of two dogs! So sorry.
ReplyDeleteYour tags are just beautiful. You have quite the creative talent! And you enjoy making them...that's what counts!
Happy Weekend, Maggie!

These are fabulous, Maggie! You are going to town in a big, huge way! And with great results!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear about your fall -- I can relate to going down on the knees (ergo, my recent physical therapy for a fall back in October!). I wish you a speedy recovery. Meanwhile, so long as you can type and cut, you'll be occupied!
Hi Maggie! So sorry about your fall. Hopefully you will be back on your feet soon. Your tags are fabulous! Happy Pink Saturday. ~Marti
ReplyDeleteIt is hard being careful all the time. I know, as I have had my spills and still have pain from it. You do a marvelous job on the tags.
ReplyDeleteHi Maggie,
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear about your fall. I've had a few spills in the last few years myself, and I'm sure they'll come back to haunt me in future.

Hope you're feeling better soon.
