At Least I Didn't Lose a Tooth
Some people exude grace, poise and elegance...if you have been reading my little blog for awhile, you know that I am not one of those people! I was vacuuming the sofa this morning when the upholstery attachment flew off of the wand, then the wand snapped back and cracked me in the face. Blood filled my mouth as I raced to the bathroom to assess the damage. Thankfully all my teeth were still firmly rooted in my gums, but my lips were swollen and sporting a couple of nasty, bleeding gashes. So pretty! I think that if anyone asks me what happened to my mouth, I'm just going to tell them it was a botched collagen injection. That sounds a little more glamorous than, "The Dyson kicked my ass!"

Poor you!! Hope you are feeling a little better now.
Wow, you have a Dyson? You know, other wives claim they walked into a door. ;-)
(Speedy healing/god bedring!)
OMG - that sounds awfully painful!!!
Still gotta love the Dyson though. I sort of wish we had brought ours just for the memories. :-)
Astrid, yes, my mouth is fine, I'm just a touch dramatic about these things!
Keera, sadly, I do also walk into doors and fall down stairs...I'm sure people who see the constant bruises and scrapes do wonder about my home life. Once they get to know me and see me tripping over my own 2 feet, they stop wondering!
Victoria, that damn Dyson! I just got back from a doctor's appointment and I have tendonitis in my right hand, most likely from vacuuming with that damn heavy Dyson every day! It does a great job sucking up all the hair and dirt, but it has broken me! Kevin already ordered a Dyson canister vac for me--same suction, much lighter. I couldn't handle the Animal! Emily
Wow, Emily...you got beat up by your vacuum cleaner. Girlfriend, that is just sad. Perhaps it's karma for killing your camera? ;-)
Like Victoria, I have fond memories of my Dyson, but it is horrifyingly (is that a word?) heavy, isn't it? People who say cleaning house isn't good exercise never carried a Dyson up a flight of stairs!
