I've just slipped on ice and I'm in severe pain.
I must admit I'm liking the music. Thank you Slinky Kate.

I might of gone over on the ice but at least I didn't do it in front of the kids. They'd of been laughing at me. My family laugh at everything - to a point even if it's a serious injury. When I was only a wee nipper I was outside helping the skip lorry take a skip off his lorry. Unfortunately because we'd overfilled our skip and they were attempting to stack a smaller one (upside down) on top of ours. One of the chains came off and came straight at me at some force. How I move out the way I don't know - as I wasn't even looking at it. Had it hit me it would of killed me outright. I have the footage! it as being filmed lol.
Anyway the point of that story was that my family were in stitches for about 30 minutes afterwards. We laugh at everything because when all else fails you have to laugh.

Same when my step dad was starting up the grave digger with the starting handle and it didn't come away from the drive shaft - at least not until it shattered his knee. We were just fall all over laughing whilst he was shouting at us. He doesn't follow the family idea of laughing - he hates it. He can't understand why'd you laugh at someone in pain.
Mamya: For us it works. If you injure yourself badly and someone is crying with laughter you switch off from the pain and either laugh yourself or just hurl abuse at the person laughing. Either way it works. The problem with my step dad is that he doesn't see it like that - he just gets angry. It doesn't stop us from laughing though.
We do the same when something is too heavy that we can't drop or put down. I've been half way up a flight of stairs with my mum holding a cabinet and we'd just start laughing when it'd get too heavy. I'd always be the one to say something extremely funny like "Oh yeah this was a good idea, trying to get a 2 metre wide cabinet up a 1.5 metre staircase" and at that she'd just start going, and buckling at the knees. It made doing horrible stuff interesting.

I like to think that's how my mother operates but to be honest she's drained. They are going to Venice on Monday though so hopefully that will reset her batteries for a month or two. I've only got one dog to look after so it's going to be really quiet here next week. You might find that I'm on here till stupid o'clock.
