So I've just managed to trip over myself in my stupid flip flops and bang my arm up on the side of the kitchen door... now doing that half laughing halfing sobbing thing whilst wondering how such an everyday item as a flip flop can cause such a painful incident (flip flop got flung across the room in a girly strop!)
Is it just me that these stupidly clumsy things happen too?!  |

Nope. I managed to brake my toe and fracture another bone whilst walking through my living room in the night whilst getting a cup of coffee. Stupidly I didn't put the light on and kicked the sofa leg... Hopefully it will heal in a couple of weeks!  |

Not at all.
I'd been having some "me time" a few weeks ago. I'd finished and was all relaxed and snoozy. My wand was on the floor next to the bed.
I kept my clothes/toys in a suitcase in my room, the case was open, everything on show. I hear the front door go, my son shouting "motheeeeer" as he normally does when he returns home.
I hear him coming up the stairs.
Then it hits me. My wand, the case 
I fling my legs round, bend done, grab the wand, and up putting my foot in my shoe which I hadn't spotted in my rush. Problem was the shoe was sideways and it flung me forward, I literally splatted like a belly flop, wand in hand, desperately trying to get it in the case and the case lid down before he entered my room.
He heard the splat and luckily enough was laughing so hard it stopped him in his tracks.
My toes had bent back, my knees scraped, and I thought I was gonna have heart failure!
You aren't alone! |

I tripped over the carpet runner thing entering my living room and broke my ankle. I was three sheets to the wind at the time 
My ex didn't believe i'd broken it until he saw the state of it the next morning |

And this is largely why I never where flip flops. I trip over stuff that doesn't even exist without the added hazard of death shoes.
Weirdly, I tend to be much more stable in six inch trollop shoes than flats of any sort. One of the quirks of life on Planet Heels. |

I managed to hurt my pinkie finger by accidentally whacking it on the door frame as I walked from the bedroom to the bathroom on a meet in a hotel room. Hurt like fuck. Took several months to feel right again.

I tripped over a shoe at the bottom of my stairs once, that didn't end well. It was a steel toe capped boot, I wash rising round in a hurry to get upstairs, kicked the boot accidentally, breaking my little toe, and fell face first into the stairs, breaking my nose.
That was a fun day I tell thee |

Out that is impressive! Especially to have broken your toe kicking a steel toe cap. Thank goodness you have them to protect you
Reminds me of when we went fossil hunting with my then-5-year-old daughter. She had a little rock hammer, and some safety specs. The only injury was her managing to catch a bit of the skin of her hand in the hinge on the safety specs!

I could raise myself... Ex was a dressmaker. Once went barefoot into her work room. Pin in bottom of big toe and out the top. That was fun pulling it out.
I'm a twat because this didn't happen only once! |

I stuck a 10 inch knife straight through my left palm last year when making guacamole and attempting to get the avocado stone out while I had slippery hands. I've never seen so much blood and still have the scar
Apparently A & E departments are seeing so many similar stupid accidents lately that they've called the phenomena 'avocado hand' ... |

Nope. I'm the clumsiest person I know. I regularly obtain bruises from tripping over my own feet or bumping into things... |

Dropped a glass vase while washing it. Decided I would try to catch it, but not before it turned into a lethal weapon and went straight through the fleshy but between my thumb and index finger |

last year I stubbed my middle toe on the corner of a wooden blanket box. I hit it with such force that it broke the toe as well as a couple of bones in the foot, but because of where it was all I could do was get it strapped up...I was in agony for weeks after  |

I live near the A303 and regularly used to cross it to get to the fields quicker with my dog. One day I started to cross and my dog stepped in front of me. I went flying over him and ended up flat out on the road still holding his lead. Literally my life flashed before me as cars and lorries were approaching. By some miracle I staggered to the central reservation, crossed the other side and thought, fuck that hurts. Too scared to cross back to go home as I was bleeding, I walked the long way home, 2 miles. I had fractured my shoulder..... I could have been killed! Never ever again!! |

It is very reassuring to see I am in such wonderfully clumsy company...! (I winced out loud at more than one of these tales!)
Got a corker of a bruise developing now... and am still very cross at my flip flops! |

Oh you silly sausage - need it kissing better?
And yeah once I decided to dry a wine glass whilst holding the base instead of the stem. Stem breaks and goes though my finger. 8 hours in hospital and a trip to surgery and I was sorted |
