Either I had a bad day yesterday, or I got some new props!

Ok, here's me making lemonade with those proverbial lemons:


Yesterday, graceful swan that I am, I fell out of my mini-van and sprained my foot. You don't hear that often do you? There are some sentences that I say sometimes and I can't believe that it is something I needed to say (like telling my youngest as a crawler "Stop licking the kitty!").


Anyway, apparently I was trying to be Super Woman, because after my flight from the minivan and consequent meeting with the driveway I got back in the minivan and made the trip to the bank. BAD IDEA. I'm going to put the pain up there with early-labor pains, except at least when I was laboring I had the use of both legs to walk myself around while breathing my "hee hee heee ho's." I completed my bank transaction, my husband came home to be with the kids and I had them drop me at the Emergency Room at Brandywine Hosiptal.


It was actually a pretty pleasant ER trip! I haven't been to the ER so many times that I have lots to compare it to, but I was in and out in an hour, everyone was attentive, and for the 5-10 minutes I had to wait I loved having the time to sit and read in quiet! I think I"ll start "going to the ER" more so I can read to my heart's content!


My foot is not broken, but badly sprained. I'm sporting a very-hip ace-bandage thing, and the ultra-fashionable post-op "shoe" with the very fashion forward velcro strips. The crowning glory to the outfit, though, are my new sleek and slimming crutches!


So…back to the lemonade thing…Yes, I have a sprained foot, but if I ever want to do a medical or accident type photoshoot (or if I audition for Greys Anatomy someday), I just got my health insurance to provide me with some great props!
