What I thought would be my lazy day turned out to be very productive.
Sunday. I spent most of the afternoon in the garden—watering and rearranging potted plants, installing bamboo poles and hangers, clearing weeds, and such. The hubby went out around 2 pm attending a community meeting, so it was just me and Yongi, and well, the two boys (Brandon and his friend) on the other side.
I then worked on reinstalling the shade net. While hammering, the ladder I was on shifted sideways, and I lost my balance. Trying to land on my feet, I lost my grip on the hammer, and it flew right into me, its face landing on my forehead. Ouch🥹 It made me feel dizzy for a bit, but I was fine.
Just thankful it wasn't the hammer claw that fell on me; it could have caused bleeding, and that it didn't hit my eye, or it would have been more dangerous. So much for trying to be a handywoman, LOL!
After cleaning the mess, I went back inside our abode, and my lil boy was nowhere. When I'm out for a while, he'd usually meet me at the door. He was not on the couch, in the bedroom, or in his usual nook under the computer table. I called out his name a few times, but he didn't come. So where was he? I found him inside the utility cabinet, resting on top of the laundry basket😂
I wouldn't have checked it if the doors were not slightly open. I was absolutely baffled how he ended up in there, since the cabinet doors had magnetic locks. When encouraged to get down, he didn't budge. He was scared to jump out on his own and stayed right where he was for who knows how long.
But yeah, he made me burst out in laughter. The little mischief he is!
Anyway, checking my forehead in the mirror, I found a bump in the center, the size of the hammer's face. There's still pain, especially when touched, but I'm feeling fine—no nausea or dizziness, no headache or such. But guess I won't be holding any tools anytime soon.
Meanwhile, the day ended nicely and warmly with a fiery sunset.
It's so windy today, and drizzly too, but we will have a fine Monday nonetheless.
Cheers to a fantastic new week!
