10 more weeks until we meet this new little one!!! So excited!!! I was also excited about this new hand me down shirt that my sister in law gave me, too bad I only got to wear it for about an hour and now it is completely ruined unless we find a miracle solution to get the blood out of it. Yes, leave it to me to to have the weirdest freak accident happen to me this morning. I was stepping out of my car at work this morning with my hands full and at the exact moment I was standing up a huge gust of wind came and SLAMMMEEEDDDD the car door into my nose. Yes, you read that correctly. No my arm didn't catch the door, no my head didn't catch the door, no my hip didn't catch the door-- my NOSE did. Instantly causing it to GUSH blood. It really did not hurt which surprised me since the nose is so sensitive but it sure does hurt now. I leaned over and got some napkins out of my glove compartment but I already had blood all over my face, hands, and shirt. When I say it was GUSHING blood I really mean it was like a bloody waterfall. I got inside with blood in my hair,hand, on my face and shirt and two teachers helped me get in my classroom, got my stuff from me, got me a new shirt, and an ice pack (I was really hoping to avoid seeing anyone but I guess that is hard to do in a school). At this point I am crying (mainly out of embarrassment) and trying to clean my self up. Anyways, I have a new shirt on, a swollen and bruised nose (the nurse told me it could be broken because it is crooked but I am holding onto hope that she was just seeing the slight crookedness that my nose has always had). I have filled out my workers comp paper and put a call into my OB to ask what I need to do about X-rays (incase I go to the dr about my nose) and now I sit here with a weird feeling nose. It is pretty tender on one side and pretty swollen and bruised but I am clinging/hoping/praying it is just bruised and swollen.

Ouch!!! You poor thing! I'm so sorry!
I hurt for you sweetie. When I saw it last night, it didn't look as bad as I had imagined. Praying for you this morning as you get up with possibly two black eyes and a very sore nose.
No black eyes but my goodness it's sore!!!!
