Ugh, and ouch. Skinner knocked me off my feet when I was leaving the dog park. The biggest ouch is feeling like an old lady. I sprained my right wrist, an egg on the side of my head, and contusions on my right knee and left wrist. The parents of the dog Skinner was trying to get to when he tripped me held him while I got myself up. DH has been taking him most times lately because he is afraid I can't handle him. Now when he gets home and sees me all bandaged and bruised, ugh. I should have seen the other leashed dog coming. He is great when free in the park, but on leash, ouch.
My food is problematic.

I’m sorry, Laura. I hope your wrists, knee, and head heal quickly.

Yikes, Laura! I hope you're putting ice on your injuries!

Iced stuff and this morning the head egg is down, just bruised. Right wrist still hurts a lot. Pretty sure it is sprained, but DH wants to take me to my doctor and see if they want to x-ray. I'll get my act together and go after I've had more tea.
I had to ask DH to hook my bra this morning. He said it was counterintuitive but figured it out.

Sorry about that, Laura. Heal quickly!

I'm sorry, Laura! Maybe time to switch to miniature Pinschers.
Emmett and EM are in Jonesboro, Arkansas this morning awaiting totality.
I've got a sunny day and I'm about to get in a run in. Matilda's on break this week, and Cupid and I have already been out.

I can report that partial eclipse has started here.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
I missed the magical moment at 11:11 (on the phone rescheduling a Dr. appt), but I got out there at 11:14 (and had checked it out at 10:45). I heard the mailman coming so I stayed on the sidewalk and let him hand deliver my mail. Then let him borrow my glasses (thanks, SD Library!) so he could see it. I swear it reminded me so much of the Oreo cookie rendering that you see all over FB that it was a little meh. Maybe the photo a friend posted from a genuine totality has now spoiled me for just being in the path?

I'm jealous of the eclipse watchers! It's so cloudy here, you can't even tell that there's a sliver supposedly missing.
