Concussed
I have been suffering from a rather large headache for the past few days. On Thursday I was bringing in some shoppping from my Mum's car into my block of flats. I tend to put all the bags at the bottom of the stairs and then take them up to my flat in a couple of trips. At the bottom of the stairs there is a bit of wall that juts out. When I stood up after putting the bags down I cracked my head off this part of wall - BIG OUCH!
I remained still for a few moments whilst running down a mental checklist - am I feeling dizzy, am I going to faint, is my nose bleeding? etc. Whilst the answer to these questions were no, I did discover that I had broken my glasses I use for reading/driving/computer work, cut my nose and grazed my forehead AND a lump was starting to grow!
So - although I am physically fine, apart from the headache, I am praying for money to replace my glasses and thanking God that I didn't give myself a black eye! Wouldn't that have looked attractive?

Ouch! Hope you're feeling better now. I've just had some new specs and was surprised how expensive they are these days. Will your household insurance cover them?

I don't have any household insurance! Crazy, I know - just never got round to sorting out. I am definitely going to do that now though :(
