Pink IS my color!!! (and black & blue, too!)

So the story of the day is...NO SURGERY!!!

After 3 more x-rays & about an hour waiting in the office, I ended up with a pink cast from the knee down! Still can't put weight on it for at least 2 weeks, but at least I am officially on the mend!

So the funny story from Tuesday...I went to my dr., the ortho, radiology, Wal-Mart (where I rode the obnoxious electric chair!) to pick up a prescription & came home exhausted. I spent the evening laying around on the couch & then took a hot bath (after consuming a pain pill) & went to bed. The pain pill wore off around 2 am & it hurt enough to wake me up. I hobbled on my crutches in to use the bathroom, then sat on the couch to adjust my ace bandages. After taking another pain pill and sitting on the couch for awhile, I got back on the crutches to head to bed. In the process of squeezing between my bed & the aquarium I lost my balance. I was afraid to fall on the broken ankle and panicked as I wobbled on my crutches...in the process I kicked the crutch with the middle toe of my right foot. I was tired & just wanted to go back to sleep. Wednesday morning I was in a hurry to get to work, so I got dressed, put on A shoe, & headed out. Off & on thru the day I thought, "That toe really hurts, I must have bruised it pretty bad." When I came home and took my shoe off...the toe was black & blue clear down into my foot! I am pretty sure I broke my toe! What a mess I am! Good grief!
