Shaken But Not Stirred -- or Bruised But Not Broken

I caught my foot in an electrical cord and plummeted hard to the floor, hurting mostly my chest and my left shoulder, although my right knee hit, probably softening the fall a little bit.  I am really hurting but nothing was broken, for which I am very thankful.  Any movement, especially breathing, is going to be painful for some time. I have been aware of the danger of falling, realizing I am unsteady on my feet.  This, though, took me by surprise. I got up from the couch, took a step, and fell flat on my face. Thankfully, Jason was here to help me get up. I'll take this as a warning to be ever more  careful.
