The children were decked out in their finest, and polished in their performances. An Easter event combining Ukrainian tradition with Canadian touches. It was a thank you for the volunteers who help the children with homework.
I was the MC.
Rounds of applause and smiles all around and then it was time for tea, coffee, and snacks, followed by closing remarks.
That was my cue.
I rose from my chair and my foot caught on something at my feet. I was down before I could register what was happening. Head, wrist, hip, and knee landed with a thump.
I’ll be okay once the bruising quiets down. Pretty sure my ego took the biggest blow. Not a way to end an ideal day.




I’m glad nothing was broken! I can’t believe I found your blog! I remember your blog from 2017/2018 🙂
