What could be more attractive than a giant bruise on my upper thigh?

What could be more attractive than a giant bruise on my upper thigh?

It truly is a sight to behold....

All injured and painful, it's going to be a disgusting little sight when it finally starts to heal.

At this point... It hasn't even finished turning purple yet. I'm kind of afraid to see what it will look like tomorrow!

This is all Deputy Don's fault for putting 8 table tops on a cart and expecting me to hold them up while he makes a 90 degree turn into a door.

Of COURSE this would end in disaster with me trying to save them from falling everywhere.

Save them... I did not.

Everywhere.... They went!

Yah.....

What did he expect?? They weighed, like, a thousand pounds!

Day 1



Day 2



Can't WAIT to see what day 3 looks like....

I've got it iced and elevated tonight, it's starting to get that reddish purple color that resembles a squished black berry. You know what they say about elevating legs... Kinda like riding a bike. You never forget.... LOL

It's only painful when I bump it on something now.... The healing has begun, it's not even warm to the touch anymore. It's getting pretty ugly now, though. Yikes!

I know that hurt. Put ice on it.

The Light is shinning and she is lonely and waiting in the darkness.

    Yikes. I know a lot of people hate making out paperwork for work related injuries ( I’m one of those too) but while you may not get anything out of it financially or medically, it is very important for the company to know. What you described was a unsafe action by good ole Don. If he isn’t brought to task over it, who’s to say he doesn’t try it again and said tables land on a foot or toe and cause irreparable damage?
    Just playing devils advocate! Hope you are icing it. Cute shorts by the way
Deputy Don is our Safety guy... And, I'm on the safety committee as well. Eeek! Yah....

Those are actually my favorite comfy jammie shorts. I have a special, beat up black tshirt that I wear with them. LOL Not sure how everyone else is, but my comfy jammies are pretty well worn.

Eh, it's only a bruise. I've actually had paper cuts that hurt worse than this bruise does. As long as I don't bump it against anything, I'm ok.

I've been refraining from touching it.... It's only painful when I touch it or bump it against something. I will try the massage thing when it's not so touch sensitive. I never even thought about icing it... I'll give it a try right away. Maybe it won't end up so ugly.

    Lovely shades of purple! I can imagine how that hurts, too.
    I'm trying to recover from a fall I took last Tuesday and my mouth landed on the lantern I was holding when I went down. Not only was I injured, but I had to clean up all the blood. My lip was badly bruised and split and took more than 3 hours to quit bleeding. After several days my lip was yellow. Ugh!! Oh...and it's been peeling. Makes me look like a lizard with skin issues.
Oh my goodness! Did you need stitches? I'm glad you're on the mend now... The fact that we have to eat and talk make a mouth injury that much more painful as your mouth is in motion quite a bit of the time. As for the peeling, you can always hide that from view with a mask now!

    Yeah, that's not good.
    Although... I watch 'Mayday' (the tv airplane crash dissection show), and almost everyone in the event gets a real serious bruise- so I guess you're lucky.

    There's always a bright side. 😶❗
I haven't had one this big in quite some time. I am lucky, though... It's definitely not as painful as it looks like it would be.
