Stupid things...

I think summer is officially over in Norway but I am still holding on. I am not going to stop wearing flip-flops until September comes. :)

And, I am posting the following because in life we all do stupid things. This is my stupid thing of the week!

Kjetil and I were working out with an exercise band at home. He usually hooks it around this latch that we have one one of our doors. The thing is that the latch faces downward. He was standing with his back to the door and pulling forward, it didn't really move because he is just as tall as the latch. It looked like a good exercise and when he was done, he headed into the bathroom and I decided to get it a try.

I failed to remember that Kjetil is almost 6'2'' and I am only 5'8''...and that if I did the same, there could be problems, like it slipping off. So, I pulled forward a few times and then suddenly like a baseball bat to the back, the band hit me with incredible force. I screamed, Kjetil came running and after we got some ice on my back, I asked him to take a picture. He found it relatively funny that I wanted to picture but he obliged me. Sometimes it is fun to show bruised and welts and such to other people and this one was definitely one that needed to be shown. It kills!
