Re: Nasty Fall.

Just smile back and say "you should have seen the other person!"
That should stop the staring I reckon.

Good that you are getting over the shock, it's worse for some reason when older. I used to deal with things much better when younger but not these days, unfortunately.

Re: Nasty Fall.

So glad to hear you're feeling much better today Paula. You wear that shiner with pride gal - pretend you're the best kick boxer or something and give people who stare that 'what you looking at me fer?' look, while rolling up your sleeves

Re: Nasty Fall.

Thank you again everybody...xxx:
Love you all.xx

Re: Nasty Fall.

[QUOTE=pauline3;1938626]I know,I have a black eye....people were staring at me in Sainsbury’s today..

When I had a face fall I took 3 days off work , my face was black and blue and puffy eyes . My work was reception and people would try not to stare but I would just say I had a nasty fall . Sometimes concerned looks and other times embarrassed.

Glad your on the mend

Re: Nasty Fall.

Make up,has covered the bruising up quite well....Q

Re: Nasty Fall.

Doesn't look bad at all, Pauline with the makeup. I bet it's still sore though.

Re: Nasty Fall.

Thanks Tiff....yeah,it's still sore..but the main thing is...I'm over that nasty shock.....that was the worst for me to deal with.

I won't be jogging anymore..that's for sure,xx

Re: Nasty Fall.

You look ok to me Pauline.

You should see my battle scars, of which I have many on my face, hands and arms. Most of them are burns due to carelessness on my part. I don't bother to put make up on, I have never liked the feel of it on my face.

Re: Nasty Fall.

I plastered on the make up...without it,it looks like my thigh at the side ...that took the brunt as well...

Re: Nasty Fall.

That is pretty.

I was daft enough to go up the bridle path at the back of our house in November a couple of years ago after heavy rain. I slipped over and broke my shoulder very badly, my arm looked as pretty as your thigh.
