We are sore and feel rather "rough" today....got talked into leaving the house for the evening... (something that we rarely ever do... ) we were having a pretty good time...
I was getting to pet their chained dogs.. ... one large pit bull...
(she was overly jealous for my having petted the other dogs) ... I leaned down to pet her and she jumped up at me... with my face less than a foot away ... she jumped up with all of her force... (I have been punched in the eye very hard before)... the impact knocked me down (nearly "knocked me out)... She did not mean to do so ... so we were Not Mad at the poor dog... but it did hurt...
Today "nasty" headache and my entire eye-socket hurts...
After that....I tried to avoid other people there... and eventually had to get a ride home...
so much for leaving the house to go anywhere...
Light-headed and "groggy" feeling today... (possibly a minor concussion... had much worse)... it will pass
ReplyDeleteWell, at least you weren't bitten!
ReplyDeleteDear Lady Debra.... not only have his dogs (since he was a kid) always known me... the dogs were jealous ... I can only pet so many chained dogs at one time.... Most of the time if a large dog goes to bite me ... I grab its throat and fall to the ground atop of it and keep it pinned like that till some one can take it away from me .... we do Not allow one to bite me...
DeleteThat very same thing happened to me...maybe not quite as hard as yours...
ReplyDeletethe dog just raised her head up really fast while I was too close to her head (a Great Dane) and her bony head hit my cheekbone and it hurt like crazy....
Sure hope you are better soon, Stacey.
Thank you dear Lady ... just a bot of a blackened eye... not mad at the poor dog at all... a Saturday to you and yours... and enjoyed the images of your wonderful Turquoise jewelry...
DeleteGlad that you were not bitten. Yikes.
