Clumsy

I have just discovered that I am extremely clumsy.

Some might mistake this for lack of co-ordination, but I assure you it has very little to do with my ability to catch and throw a ball, and a lot more to do with my lack of attention and forward thinking.

Over the past few weeks I have managed to....

  • Fall dramatically of a chair (in front of a class of yr. 7's I might add). I had really impressive bruises and a really sore back. Ouch.

  • Bump my head on the monkey bars, after successfully flipping off of them.

  • Hook myself with a fishing hook, after we had finished fishing.

  • Stacked, tripped and stumbled numerous times.

  • And the most clumsy of all, flip over a mettle grid gate, and smack the crown of my head on the gate.... gee was that stupid or what? I can't begin to describe the headache.
... I always have these unexplained bruises... and I have no doubt that they came from one of my clumsy moments. Just pinpointing which bruise came from what particular moment is the hard task.
