Another crazy happening with the Wilders

Hi All:

Well I have another story to tell and it is not a pretty one.  The other day we went to town to get a few items and of course Sadie always goes with us.  She loves to ride in the truck.  She might be a little bit spoiled.  Well, when we got back, as usual, Curt set up her ramp so she could walk down the ramp and out of the truck.

We always put a leash on her before she walks down.  Curt handed me the leash and as always, we walk to the RV to go up the stairs.  It is the same routine that we do all the time.  I go in first and she follows me, I put on her invisible fence collar, take off the leash and let her back outside. Well as you all may have already guessed, it didn’t quite go that way.  Yes Curt handed me the leash and I walked into the trailer with the leash on my wrist as always and as I was reaching for her collar, the next thing I knew I was on my back in the grass.  We kind of laugh about it now because I didn’t have any idea what happened and so later Curt explained it all.  He said, right when I got in the door, Sadie tripped on one of the steps and she went backward and when she did, her 112 lbs jerked me out of the RV, down the steps and flat on my back in the grass.  Needless to say, I was a bit dazed and Curt was checking every part of me to see if anything was broken.  Sadie was frantic thinking I was hurt and she was all over me.  All I knew my left hand hurt really bad and so did my right hip and my right arm.  I looked at my hand and it broke every one of my fingernails on my left hand and I knew that I would be so sore and black and blue by the morning.  I finally got up and I limped into the RV and took some Advil and layed down. Well I will show you the place on my arm that is purple and I will say my leg is purple as well as my hip, my back and my elbow. I am so thankful nothing was broken.  Curt said he heard Sadie trip and when he looked up he said it was like someone shot me out of a cannon.  He said I flew through the air and hit the ground. hahaha…we laugh about it now but at the time he was scared and I was dazed.

Today we were suppose to go to Waco but it is so hot here, so we decided to wait till next week.  Since we take Sadie with us we can’t have her in the truck if it is too hot and it is hot and muggy. We are having a friend over for supper tonight.  They have doggy daycare here but they make them have the influenzas shot and she hasn’t had that but she is getting it today.  So maybe next week we can leave her at doggy daycare when we head to Waco.

We haven’t had to work on the RV for 2 days.  That is pretty exciting. I am adding pictures of Sadie and of my arm.  Sadie pulls our bedspread off of the bed every night and puts it over herself.  She is the funniest dog.

I hope everyone is well and healthy and I thank you for following my blog.  Hopefully soon I will actually have better stories and pictures to share.

Until next time.
