Back home again

We’re home. We arrived in the wee hours of the morning yesterday, and all travel plans went without a hitch. We had a wonderful time on our visit to San Miguel and can certainly understand why so many people fall captive to its spell. I have many photos to share so I hope you won’t be bored.

I’ve had a hard time getting my New Jersey “legs” back again and maybe that’s why it happened. After successfully walking over rocky cobblestone streets and the ups and downs of the stone sidewalks, I came home only to fall pretty much flat on my face in the middle of the road while taking the dogs for a walk last night. I should know better. I didn’t have the right kind of shoes on, I was running with Bella on a flexi lead and she saw a squirrel. She took off and I let go as soon as I realized what was happening, but it was too late to save myself. I tore up my lip pretty good, banged my nose, chipped a tooth, and have multiple abrasions and bruises. ugh. I look pretty ugly right now with a swollen lip, etc. I am so lucky though, it could have been much worse. So, not exactly a pretty sight right now. I’m still not sure exactly how I managed to make such a mess of my lip and upper lip without breaking my nose ...

Welcome home, Lynne.
Much more to come (but only photos I hope and no more falls.)

About

Welcome, I'm Lynne. You know me better as a 'new' Jersey Girl. But now I've moved once again, this time to North Carolina. Here I write about my thoughts, good food, and of course, dogs.
