Despite my clutzy tendencies, it had been weeks since I had a run-in with the evil bed frame. I even thought to myself just the other day that perhaps I’d finally learned to navigate the narrow space between the bed and the wall with ease. But Sunday morning, while zipping around at top speed in a rush to get ready, the bed frame seized the opportunity and leapt in front of my path. Covered by only my fleece pajama pants, my leg smashed hard right into the sharp corner.

No doubt about it. The frame sat there for weeks, lurking, plotting, just waiting for the perfect timing – that being the start up of our shooting schedule – when any resulting bruises will be clearly on display.

I’ve been following the advice given to me the last time the bed frame and I battled. Ice and a compression wrap immediately afterwards (thanks Chloe!!) and lots and lots of Arnica. I’m using both an Arnica cream and nibbling Arnica tablets around the clock as per the directions. I wish the tablets came in a yummier variety like orange or cherry rather than the lightly sweetened pencil shavings flavor this brand reminds me of.

I will be curious to see if the Arnica makes a difference. This is the first time I’ve had to put it to the test since my question post back at the end of November. Somehow I have a feeling that despite my best efforts, the bed frame will be gloating on Saturday as I sport the mark of its handiwork for all to see.
