Accidents will happen

It has been a strange week for me. I injured myself twice. I had started putting up picture frames in my new home. While I was putting up on frame the glass part fell out and cut my foot open quite badly. I was bleeding a lot but I wrapped a plaster around it and it stopped bleeding. Although it was a huge gash. I limped for a few hours and it was sore when walking downstairs.On Saturday morning I got up early to tidy my flat and finish my xmas shopping. I thought I would finally chuck the rest of this broken glass away. I went into passage of my flat entrance wearing my pyjamas as i opened the entrance door. I screamed in pain. I looked down and blood was poured out my leg. I was really scared I ran back to my flat into my bedroom grabbed my phone and ran to the the bathroom where blood went all over floor. I called for an ambulance. The lady on the phone was very nice. I was so scared she calmed me down explained i need to wrap the wound and press firmly with clean towel.I was so distressed when she asked me how old I was I stuttered and I couldn't actually remember for a few minutes.The ambulance came quickly. It was embarrassing i had to answer the door in my zippy from rainbow hoodie and my knickers.I couldn't put trousers on when bleeding so much. I also didn't want to damage any of my clothes by getting blood on themInitially when the ambulance crew arrived they couldn't find my wound. Eventually it was found at the top of my thigh. They asked how I managed to do that. I don't really know how I managed to do it.I had to go a&e minor by ambulance and had 3 stitches put in and felt like crap for the rest of the day.I believe these things come in three, so all I can think when will my next accident be. I shouldn't think so negatively. But I cant help it.
