Oh geeze, I could write a book:

1. cut my thumb while carving a pumpkin - 2 stitches
2. cut my finger while carving a pumpkin - 4 stitches
(I don't even BUY pumpkins any more)
3. cut my finger on the serrated edge of an aluminum foil box - 4 stitches
4. Was sitting cross legged in a car w/ no seat belt, car hit ditch, I flew into windshield - several stitches in face, hairline fracture in jaw, broken foot
5. swam into the side of a pool and broke my nose
6. fell down the stairs sideways (over the stairs, not down them, IOW) calling out to my dog and landed on the basement cement floor - concussion
7. dropped a hammer on my foot while trying to carry too much stuff - broken foot
8. motorcycle accident - they figure I put my leg out trying to break my fall. Several broken leg bones, 3 surgeries, 100+ stitches

Probably several more I can't remember off the top of my head. I am an accident waiting to happen and the MOST uncoordinated human on the planet My father cries when he thinks of all the $$$ he spent on ballet lessons.

The best though was my brother. He was holding his breath to get rid of the hiccups. Passed out, split his chin from the outside all the way to inside and chipped a tooth. He was about 9 and is in his 40's now and we still remind him of it
