Tuesday is hanging at the beach with my friends. Breakfast at Treehouse - eggs, bacon, & fruit smoothie. Gotta great some good vitamins! 1 couple is going home today & I am moving into the condo. M moves my bags & we hit the beach. Tony the juice guy comes by. We try the cucumber ginger juice. He said at Christmas that it was his favorite, so we tried it. Not bad - it's got to have some healing qualities, right? L & I drink the whole bottle before it gets warm. Next Anthony shows up. Hmm, what kind of goodies today? Vanilla cake with pineapple - my midnight snack! I love Negril - you don't have to get out of your chair all day - the vendors come to you! Lunch time....we're going to Jamaica Tamboo. I ordered a calalloo pizza & it was off the hook. I did share 1 piece! Best calalloo pizza yet! After lunch we head back up the beach and my worst fear happens. We're walking along and yapping. S says to me "watch out for that rope"! If you were in front of BarBBarn you witnessed my grace. I lifted my left foot over the rope & my right foot didn't quite make it. I caught the rope between my big toe & down I went like a ton of bricks. Oh *****....it seemed like forever....I couldn't fall on my freakin left arm. My left knee hit the sand & I threw my forearms out in front of my & shifted to my right side. M & S came running. I couldn't get up fast enough. You know that embarrassing moment - you jump up & look around to see if anyone saw you! Yep, a whole bunch of people saw it....I didn't want to get my purse wet either! M grabs my arm to see if my incision split open. The look on his face....He promised my husband that he would take care of me. I said my arm was okay, check & see if my knees & foot are bleeding. Sh*t....I had rope burn between my toes & the top of my foot, left knee & calf huge bruises... A Jamaican man runs up to see if I am alright, just embarrassed & my freakin knee is killing me. Needless to say everyone was sworn to secrecy NOT to tell my husband. He'll never let me go without him again. Arm/elbow good - didn't tear the anchor out.....Go back to the condo & get my handy gel ice pack & move it around to all my new injuries. Yeah, my family calls me "Grace" - really - tru dat! My friends have a good time the rest of the week teasing me that they are going to wrap me in bubble wrap!
Tonight we eat at Linga By the Sea. Orange ginger chicken with rice. It was good, but small pieces of chicken - back & drumstick????? Huh-back ????Hang on the porch. This is our evening ritual. Heck, we even have karaoke up there! Everyone goes to bed. I can't do my usual trippy trapping around, so I get into bed & spin tunes on my iPod with my ear buds in for a couple of hours & eat my cake!
~But you know i DID NOT spill a drop either falling!!!(grin)
