I Took a Helluva Fall

Tweet

If you were aware from an earlier post, the front left tire on my riding mower blew, and I finally replaced it yesterday. Turned out to be about a 20-minute project, which was nice. I honestly thought I'd run into a hiccup, but everything went smoothly. Got the grass cut and then decided to hook up the hose to the deck wash system and cleaned that. I also wanted to clean off the wheels a bit as they were full of wet grass. We'd had some rain earlier. Pulled the mower into the garage, got one foot off and my foot slid right out from under me since the garage floor becomes quite slippery when wet, and my brain simply disengaged. Up in the air I went and slammed into the ground with all my weight, which was great on an already effed up back. It took me a couple of minutes to get up and this morning when I got up, I was of course sore. It is what it is. I should've known better. I know that garage floor becomes like a hockey rink when it's sweaty or wet.
