Tripped by A Cord

That looks nasty doesn't it? Well my elbow is killing me though it's better than it was. I was getting up and walking out of the living to go cook supper. I was on the phone with my hubby. I saw that my daughter had plugged in the Nintendo DS on the floor to charge it. Gabbi grabbed it as I passed and pulled the cord tight. It went up in the air, my foot came down and the cord went between my toes. I tried to right myself but it was too late. I came crashing down elbow first into a corner of a sort of half wall that it is my living room. I dropped to the ground panting and silently screaming in pain. I told the hubby to hold on because I'd hurt myself. I thought the pain would lessen but it got worse. I thought it would go away but it didn't. The hubby was on his way home and by the time he got there my elbow was swelling and the arm around it. We decided it was best to get x-rays which we did and it's not broken just very bruised. I am feeling a bit better at the moment. It depends on how I move it. I wonder if it will turn all kinds of pretty colors? haha
