{Slip-up}

This morning I slipped on the ice on my way to work. I pretty much looked like this old man:



It happens at least once every year.

I was talking to the husband last week about how I hadn't slipped once yet this year. I was so nervous because I was sure it was going to happen any day. I was thinking about slipping on purpose when no one would be around just to get it over with and save myself the humiliation. Well..... I didn't slip on purpose. I slipped on accident on the sidewalk near my work building. It totally took me by surprise because I did not see any ice - it was invisible.
Luckily I didn't fall into the bushes right next to me......

My first year up here in the frigid snow I slipped probably a dozen times. Thank goodness that number has decreased through the years. Maybe I should just wear extra padding ALWAYS.
Like Randy from A Christmas Story:

I think it could be a good look for me.
