Well, I'm at the emergency room.

This morning was not a good start to New Years week. I decided to go horseback riding, something I haven't done in many years, and which Mrs. Chandler warned me was not a good idea, but I refused to let her hold me back. It turned out to be a big mistake! I got on the horse and started out slowly, but then we went a little faster; and before I knew it, we were going as fast as the horse could go. I couldn't take the pace and fell off, but caught my foot in the stirrup with the horse dragging me. It wouldn't stop. Thank goodness the manager at Toys-R-Us came out and unplugged the machine. But he had the nerve to take the rest of my change so I wouldn't attempt to ride the Elephant...

Lol, my brother actually got a compound fracture falling off a
Coin operated horse. He left off the fact it was not a real horse in the retelling of the tale.

Got me! The last two sentences made me think for a moment it was 4/1/17 instead of 1/1/17.
