It's been awhile...
You know those days when no matter how hard you try, things just don't go your way? Not the big events (thankfully) but the little stuff. You reach for your keys, drop them on the floor, then kick them across the floor when you're reaching for them. The shirt you put on has a stain, so you put on another, only to find it has a hole in it. And so on. Well, Tuesday just happened to be one of those days. So, it’s been about a whole 2 ½ weeks since my knee surgery, which miraculously went as well as it possibly could, and about 5 days after the surgery I was up and walking. So, by now I’m in physical therapy and progressing quite quickly, I’m not in a whole lot of pain anymore so sometimes I kind of blow the whole knee surgery off and think that everything is normal, bad idea!
So here’s the story….My Mom asked me to pick up some samples at the doctor’s office, no big - right? Well as I was walking back to my car, I stepped off the curb (onto my bad knee) and it gave out, causing me to fall. The only thing I could think of at the time was to put all my weight onto my left side because I didn’t want to injure my knee again and have surgery #5. So down I went. Now, I wish that’s where the story ends, but if you know me - you know that’s only the beginning. I got up as quickly as I could and jumped in my car praying that nobody saw me. Though as soon as I was in my car I realized that I was in a ton of pain, except it wasn’t my knee - it was my wrist. I drove home and by this time my wrist was little pretty swollen - called my Mom, we went to the emergency room and 3 hours later the nurse is putting a cast on my wrist….that’s right I FREAKING BROKE MY WRIST! I swear if it wasn’t for back luck lately, I wouldn’t have any luck at all.
So for those of you who care, that’s the latest with me. But this is taking entirely too long to type with 1 hand, so I think I’m going to get headed out now. Have a great day guys!
