22-DEC-17 Whoa!!

That is what I exclaimed as I took a spill on the clear coat of ice covering our driveway as I was getting out of the car.  It was sort of comical.  I opened the car door, planted my left foot on the (what I thought was dry) pavement, transferred my weight to that foot/leg while started to stand up and immediately fell to the ground.  My elbow is a tiny bit sore and I lost some Broccoli and Cheese soup but those were the only casualties.  (I had two quart sized plastic containers of the soup in a small shopping bag.  I think I might have crushed the bag a little when I fell because it tore open and one of the containers cracked.)  It is a shame about the soup because there are a couple of HUGE pieces of broccoli on the driveway right now.  On the bright side, I had soup for dinner tonight! For the record.....I ate the soup which didn't get spilled onto the driveway.
