Couch Potato

That’s me today!  I had big plans for myself.  My kids were playing with cousins all day and I was able to do nothing… el zippo.  I had 3 websites to design (just write the specifications, whatever that is), grocery shopping to do, phone calls to make, and a nap to take.  But, at bootcamp this morning I had a incident with my ankle.  We were doing these jumping things on a platform of some sort and my foot landed and rolled.  I thought I was fine, and as a matter of fact, I was.  When I got home, I was off my foot for about an hour and then when I got up the pain was magnified.  I couldn’t walk very well but as time passed, it was getting worse.  I couldn’t walk on it, couldn’t move it, and I could not put any pressure on it.  So lame!  I couldn’t decide if I was more sad about missing an opportunity to get things done or having pain.  Anyhow, to make a long story long, I eventually went to a Dr. to find out that I have a broken ankle AND a torn ligament and some other stuff I didn’t understand but it calls for surgery and I am going on Friday.  So, I wallowed in my sadness and my pain after the doctors news and was on the couch reading and sleeping.  I am on crutches, can’t drive, and have a beautiful black brace.

So, if I have you caught up in my story… good.  I had to write something interesting because the truth is… (don’t keep reading if you liked the story above) there is no crazy damage to my ankle-just sprained it… BAD (I added that diagnosis).  I am supposed to go skiing in 2 weeks but I may just be a couch potato there too.  I better stock up on some good books.  : )  Oh, the worst part about all this-I can’t drive.  Don’t worry, I am praying for a miracle…
