Day 232 - Hiding My Knee

I managed to hide my skinned and scraped up knee injury from my wife yesterday in my OTB wreck. After I got home, I jumped into the shower, took off the bandaids and washed up my knee good with soap and water. After I got out of the shower, I put on a bandaid. My wife was in the bedroom and heard me and asked, "What are you doing? It sounds like you are putting on a bandaid." I flatly tell her no and change the subject. I grab a pair and throw on a pair of pajamas to cover up the evidence. She doesn't notice. I walk to the bed, trying not to hobble. It was a good fall. Upon inspecting my bike when I got home, I found I had bent the left brake lever. And I had fallen in the dirt. Looks like I might have to replace it. The brake lever that is, not my knee. So much for starting the new year out without any injuries.
