YES I have been labeled as accident prone ( for starters)
I live in an old house with a cast iron tub......months and months ago...I was in a rush to put up a shower curtain before going to work....I hopped out of tub(almost)more like into the side of the tub and broke my pinky toe,lol...went in almost crying and told mom and gf at the time(now ex) that I had broken it.I am always saying I broke something so they ignored me,when I got home that morning from delivering pizzas,woke her and mom both and they saw my toe was as big as my big toe.funny thing it didn't hurt all night...

well today after work sat around awhile then hurried off to shower to clean up before picking mom up from work(my car died so I drive hers for now)...I dropped the soap....bent down to pick it up and whacked my forehead on a ceramic soap holder so now I have a baseball on my forehead,lol......I was like "oh TOS"...dad came running to the bathroom down to check on me,lol.....ouch......why me,lol.....I am laughing so guess oyu guys can too,no one said I was the sharpest tool in the shed,lol....going to get ice now ,at least the bright side is I now have insurance,bet I will get my money's worth,lol..have a great one,Jo

Well Jo, I must confess, I did laugh a bit. Kind of like the old comedy where a guy slips on a banana peel and falls. Not sure why it is funny, it just is.
Glad to hear you were not seriously injured. I think you need to put the non-skid on the bottom of the tub, it probably wouldn't hurt to paint yellow stripes around the sides too.
And maybe a bright orange shower curtain.
Better to be safe than sorry. Lol
Hugs, and sorry about your toe and head, chuckle.
And no more prat falls in the tub! Just get a rubber duckie like everyone else. And water wings incase you slip while the tub is full.

At least you had someone come check on you! I was in the shower a couple months ago and we had a hand held shower on the holder and I was standing there minding my own business when the whole thing shoots off the wall and smacks me right on the head at full force. I fell to the ground and screamed like a school girl with Brandi and both kids in the house...NO ONE even came to see if I was still alive! I was mad when I got out. I had a bump the size of a football on my head. Brandi asked if I was ok 30 mins after... I was a little upset and told her if I were to scream in the shower to come next time!
