Well, it doesn't happen often, but I have another sporting injury. This time in the form of a sprained ankle. Hurt like a bitch yesterday, but today its OK unless I try and put weight on it or move it too much. But if its just resting its OK.
This is my first 'real' sporting injury from Ice Skating. I've fallen badly on my knee before, but that just hurt and forced me off the ice, but went away pretty quickly. Normally my sporting injuries come from Karate (such as a broken rib during a promotion test, or what I believe was a fractured toe in another promotion test, but they could not find anything on X-ray). I also had problems with my knees after last years Skiing, however that was not really linked to skiing, because it happened a few months later, though I did find I needed soft knee braces while skiing or my knees would not be able to last very long.
So for now I'm perfecting my hopping skill - not fun since it means my foot jerks, but its the only way to get around, as a) we have stairs in this house, and b) Dash likes to dispurse his toys right after they've been put away, so crutches would not really work. Though I AM glad this happened BEFORE tanthe gave birth, since right now I can't really do anything and while she is heavily pregnant, she can still brace herself on 2 feet to pick things up.
