I got a free cherry pie out of the whole thing. I'm not part of the litigious society we live in. I didn't know my ribs were broken 'til they turned up post-trauma and healed in a scan I had. I wondered why I was so sore and it hurt when I coughed or to take a deep breath.

I believe in Karma.....they still haven't fixed the place where I tripped (March 14th).....tree root raising pavers.

So, you can imagine all you want.......but you're wrong Nancy!!!
