Ever since I came back to work after the quarantine, there has been an indoor air cleaner sitting at the front door of our office.
The air cleaner is supposed to keep people safe by filtering the air as we exit and enter the building, but i find it ironic and funny that the air cleaner is in the office to keep people safe, because I tripped over the air cleaner and broke our arm.
I was on our way into the office a couple of mornings ago and I was carrying a pressing stack of files. I thought I was further away from the air cleaner, however I tripped over the corner and I fell on top of the stack of files. I came down in a way that caused a small fracture on the side of our arm, as soon as I fell to the ground, I knew that something wasn’t right. I could believe the pain and tingling in our arm and our hand was starting to get bigger. Just a handful of our co-workers came to help choice up the files and they could see that I was hurt! Joe gave to drive me to the emergency room so I could have an x-ray performed. I thought it was a nice idea, especially after the swelling continued to get worse and worse. After going to the emergency room, I found out that our arm was fractured, then now I have to wear a cast for the next 6 weeks. I was supposed to go ice skating with our family the next afternoon, however I had to cancel those plans for a little while.
