Clumsy

I've always been clumsy.  It's evident by the large amounts of scars on my knees.

This week has been exceptionally clumsy...

First I dropped a bowl of cereal that I was eating.  All over our couch. 

Then as I was going downstairs to clean up the cereal mess, I fell down the stairs.  I have a rather large bruise on my hip, a swollen toe, and a scraped up arm.  But I did save the baby monitor...

Then I dropped Anna's oatmeal the next morning for breakfast.  In a glass bowl.  I'm lucky it didn't break.  But oatmeal turns to concrete pretty quickly, let me tell you! 

And I tripped over the baby gate upstairs in our hallway, knocking the whole thing over and waking Anna up from her nap.

Then I dropped a full cup of water on the floor.

Then I ran into my jewelry chest in the middle of the night causing a big bruise.

And if all that wasn't enough in the last 4 days, this morning I dropped a FULL container of uncooked oats on the floor.  While Anna and Luke were standing hanging onto my legs in the kitchen.

I feel like maybe I should wrap myself in bubble wrap so as to avoid more bruises before my sister's wedding next weekend!

Or maybe I should just try to be more careful.

And then as soon as I published this, I went into the kitchen to do the dishes and lo and behold, I had forgotten to screw the cap back onto the dish soap-dispensing sponge...  What a mess!!!
