My first black eye


Well, I finally have a shiner.
This is the 48 hour stage.

Left eye. Daughter Sharon took the photo.
It's not much of a story, but it's the truth.

I was shopping in our local Safeway and needed some honey.

The one on the top shelf was on sale and I reached for it. I brushed the smaller one next to it and it fell, kerplunk, right on my cheek bone. Even though I've never had a black eye before, it felt like this was going to be one. I had a bottle of milk in the cart and put that on it while waiting in the checkout line.
