it was close.
For those of you who don't know, last week I fell off a roof 14 feet onto a solid slab of concrete while at work. I landed on my left foot which then collapsed. I looked like one of those typical chalk outlines you see in a murder mystery movie or TV show. As I was falling into the kitchen of the cafeteria, those preparing the food were yelling "Call 9-1-1, Call 9-1-1."

I got my first ride in an ambulance. The doctors are amazed that I don't have a single broken bone --- only some bruises and some swelling. It truly is a miracle. TTFN. Dave
 
Oh David,
Take care, you truly must have had angels on your shoulders.

Now we all know the best get well presents would be pins! ;)
 
Dave,
that must have been really frightening for you. Glad to hear that you are ok and nothing was broken.

Guess it's true what your mother used to say, "Your head hard as a rock. "
No, wait, "Only the good die young"
No,how about .. "God Don't want me and the devil is scared of me"
Or...
"In my experience there is no such thing as luck" ...(Obi Wan Kenobi in Star Wars)


I am sure there are plenty more.

But I am really glad to hear that you are ok. Now stay off the roof! Peggie

David...you must have a special friend up "there" w/ a large hand to slow your fall....but once is enough..lets not push your "luck"...

Sure glad you came out of it so well...
 
Tell us you weren't emulating the "Flying Figment?" We are very happy that your body and spirit are intact! Your guardian angel was truly watching over you. Caroline and Roger
 
David,

First of all...OUCH!

Second of all...I'm so glad you are okay. You will have some new pins in your hands before long!!
 
David,

I am so relieved to hear that you survived your ordeal. Take care. It wouldn't be the same without you.

I have sent you a personal get well wish, but wanted to post here too. So glad the Lord saved you from serious injury. Hope your swelling goes down and your up and about in no time.


Hugs
Cindy
 
I thank all of you for your concern and well wishes.

I went to the doctor today and tried to get him to order some R&R at a certain Orlando destination, but he's grounded me. I was supposed to fly to Denver this weekend and that's cancelled as of today. (I probably wouldn't have enjoyed limping around Disney in pain anyway.)
So I guess I have to wait til March for the next Disney fix.
 
Dave, I'm glad to hear you are okay. I see the "tag fairy" heard about your little adventure LOL!
 
Dave, Glad to hear you are OK. While I'm sure it is painful it sounds like it could have been ALOT worse. Must be all the positive pin karma!
 
Now David,

Tell the truth, you were make believing you were Peter Pan flying from one roof to another to listen to childrens stories.

I am glad to hear you didn't break anything and are doing ok, we'll have to have a meet soon.

{{{BIG HUGS}}}
