a concussion! yikes! don’t feel too embarrassed – i got a mild concussion in january when i hit my head on the rear door of our van (in the wal-mart parking lot, no less). it was a cold day and the door didn’t open all the way (to give my head clearance) and i ran smack into it, hard! at least you have a more honorable reason for a concussion. mine’s just embarrassing 😉 glad you are recovering!!
my dad walked into a sign in a parking garage once and hit so hard he blacked out – he’s really tall. 😉 I guess the moral of the story is it happens to the best of us, eh? 🙂
Yikes. I’m glad you’re OK!!! Your menu is an inspiration–I admire your organizational skills! Off to check out your tomato soup.
