Broken Foot!


So.........my foot is broken....and has been for the past 4 weeks!  How did I break my foot, you ask?  Well prepare yourself for a tale of danger and intrigue......I broke it while watering the lawn...yes....watering the lawn.  I stepped back, rolled my foot, and apparently broke a bone.  My first broken bone!  I went into my doctor's office the other day for an X-ray to see how it is healing...so far it isn't doing much.  I believe he said something about my age...how if I were younger it would heal better....but I'm not really in that category anymore!  Thanks Jeremy! My doctor is our good friend....or was until that comment!  Just kidding he is great and has been awesome.  It sure pays to have a good friend who just happens to be a podiatrist...although he may be rethinking his association with me after this.  I have had to wheel around the house in an office chair for the past 3 and 1/2 weeks.  I told Craig I was going to be a woman of leisure...but truly it has been a complete pain in the rumpus!  I can now walk on it a little...so that's a start!   I have to wear this gorgeous walking boot for about another 4-5 weeks...I guess depending on how these "old" bones heal!

That's no fun at all. I can just imagine you rolling around the house on an office chair. Did you go to womens conference? How did you handle it?
