fell again, no visible injury

[redbird]

I fell last night, after waking up to go to the bathroom, and landed partly on my knees. The scabbed-over right knee looks no different this morning than last night, and landing on it hurt less than touching it did a week ago. But this seems worth recording.

Possibly relevant: I had shoved my feet into shoes (without socks) rather than my slippers, and they fit differently. Usually, when I wear those shoes, I put on socks, and tie the laces. My feet have been bothering me on and off for days, and this morning it feels like there might be a bit of new bruising on top of my right foot.

"Again" in this case means, twice in less than two weeks. Doctors tend to ask if a patient has fallen two or more times in the past year.

it's good to keep a record, imo. I hope you heal up soon.

I'm glad your knees didn't take any more damage.

I'm often astounded by how very much not-awake I am when I get up to use the bathroom. I haven't ever put on my shoes instead of my slippers, but it could happen. Mostly I just give the cats a second breakfast because I don't check the whiteboard to see if C has given them a first one.

Hope you feel better soonest. Grogginess does things to my balance: commiserations.
