car doors

[juanita]

Despite what they show on tv, car doors don't open when you pull the handle and slam your shoulder into them. Our car doors were frozen shut this morning after our very strange weather here last night. I had to climb in the back hatch of my mini-van, then climb over the 2 back seats with the boxes I've been hauling around for my son. I got the driver's door open without too much problem and then tried to open the passenger door. I hit that door and it went nowhere. My arm just smashed into my side and I almost cried. If it had been the left arm where I had the lumpectomy I would have called in to work and gone straight to the hospital. It hurts like heck, but had some good laughs about it today. I did talk to the school nurse who also works in my pcp's office. She gave me things to watch for etc.... So I'm taking ibuprofen for the pain, it numbs it but doesn't get rid of it all. At least I can laugh about it now.
