Today's Mishaps

Tweet

The day started out nicely but things kind of got off track. We decided to ride over to Daytona today. I wanted to go to this produce vendor's store and get some fresh fruit. We got there and it was closed. No problem. I remember seeing on the flea market brochure that they have local product there as well. So we headed to the flea market in Daytona. We got there (on the other side of town) and yes, it was closed too. I looked on the brochure when we got back to the Condo and yes, it says on the back that they are only open on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Opps!! So I told hubby next stop is his choice. I asked if he wanted to go to Daytona Speedway. He said not really because that would probably entail a lot of walking. So that got x'd off the list. We ended up passing it on the way back to Ormond Beach anyway so at least we got to see the outside. LOL. Our next stop was to pick up some nose spray for him. We had stopped yesterday but the store was out of stock. Got that and we headed back to the condo. We came in and I started unloading the dishwasher so we could get something to eat. I managed to drop a glass that hit the two plates I had left on the counter for lunch and the glass shattered into a zillion pieces and the top plate also. It took a good 45 minutes to clean the mess up and as we were almost done my husband asked where the blood came from. There were a few drops of blood on the floor. Looking down at my feet we see that one sandal is covered and full of blood. I almost fainted right then. Although myt foot didn't hurt bad, the sight of so much blood on an empty stomach made me feel really quesy. I managed to find the wound/cut which was on the inside of my foot at the area where my ankle is located on the opposite side. I got the bleeding to stop and hobbled to the bathroom and rinsed off my foot. After all that I really didn't want to eat so I took my book and went out on the balcony and read my book and sipped on a Seagrams cooler. We stayed inside after all that. Tomorrow I'll see about replacing the wine glass. I don't think I'll find a single plate to replace so that will just have to be billed to us. This is the second time we have had to replace a glass. The ice maker in the door chipped a glass a couple of years ago. I manged to find a replacement at Dollar Tree so I'll look there tomorrow and hopefully find a match to this set.
