The dust has settled...

...now that it has we have taken stock of the injuries. At the end of the day, Grammy ended up with 3 staples in her head. Carley, unfortuantely, was injured but I didn't see her injuries until later in the day. She has bruises and road rash from her forehead to her ankle. We took her in for xrays of her elbow (they thought it might be broken or fractured) but it's just swollen and sore. She can't or won't move her arm which makes getting dressed a bit difficult. Thankfully the weather has been cooler because the only button down shirts we own are sweaters.

After everyone went to bed last night and I made sure everyone was ok, I finally broke down. It was an awful day and emotionally traumatic for me. Today I'm sore from head to toe and some of the events after the fall are a blur so I'm starting to wonder if I physically carried both Carley and Grammy up the stairs. I don't know.

I'm glad everyone is recovering and soon Carley, who is more emotionally battered, will get past this.
