Pizza boxes and an ambulance!!!!

I had a couple of pizza boxes delivered to me in the last couple of weeks and so have had some yummy new products to play with. Hence these layouts.......

This is Ella when she was little ....isn't she a cutie! These are using Graphic 45 papers.

I think this is my new favourite...love the spray of flowers. Sass Lass pp's.

Ella at the beach on Straddie. Her name was washed away about 5 seconds after this photo was taken.


Some yummy new Basic Grey papers. Photo of the girls taken last year.

On another note I had a little accident on Sunday 12th.
I fell off my bike!!! And Ella fell with me!!! Actually I was strapping her into the baby seat on the back and then was trying to turn around to face the right way and my foot got caught on the bar and over we went....... my bum hit the pavers and my back hit the verandah post which is metal and not forgiving!!! For a few minutes I couldn't move and couldn't breath properly, luckily Dave was there and several other people (yes all witnesses!!!) Ella is ok just a little scrape on her arm.
They helped me to get upstairs and tried to lie on the bed but the pain was unbearable so Dave insisted/rang an ambulance and the paramedics came and took me hospital and gave me some lovely morphine on the way. (get seen to straight away if you arrive in an ambulance!!!)
Several hours later and some x-rays revealed I had severe bruising so off I was sent home with a script for some anti-inflammatories. Monday morning I had a phone call from the hospital to say that a radiologist has looked at my x-rays more extensively and I have slightly fractured one of the vertebraes in between my shoulder blades.
"Depression in the Superior end plate of T8 with a little flattening of T8. This is a recent fracture."
It will heal itself over time and just to take it easy in lifting things for a little while. I have to go back to the doctors next week. My butt is black and blue and red with a whopper bruise!!!
Hopefully everything will be ok before we go to NZ in a couple of weeks!!
Thanks for visiting.
