Hoping for a Library Trip…

January 19, 2018Angela

… well, hoping my oldest runs to the library for me while she is spending the weekend with me. I wonder if there is a limit on how many books can be checked out? I’ve been continuing the Nancy Drew series and I can literally read 4 or 5 of those a day if that is all I was reading. But I do have other things to read as well 😊

As far as I know my surgery went well. The surgeon didn’t come and see me at all yesterday after I got back to my room. I have been here all alone as well so I don’t even know how long the surgery took. They had to put a metal plate and screws in as I broke 3 different ankle bones. I definitely have a long and painful road ahead of me.

My oldest daughter will be picking me up today and spending the weekend with me, so I’m a happy girl about that.

Trying to not stress about the fact that I have no idea what I am going to do Monday when she is back home and my 13 year old has school all morning and afternoon.

Bless your heart, I so feel for you having to heal through that. Just take your time trying to get around.

  She is truly a blessing and I am lucky she is able to help me out. I didn’t even ask or suggest it 😊

Ouch! My commiserations. If you are a library member you can download ebooks via OverDrive onto any device. Great for emergency reading 😉

Ouch is right. That sounds incredibly painful. I hope the mend is quick and pain-free. Take care!

    Just don’t rush things…If the doc says NO WEIGHT ON FOOT, that means stay down! I had extensive reconstructive surgery on my foot in 2014, and because My Better Half did not know how to work the dishwasher or the microwave, I got up on crutches two weeks before the doctor said I could and things didn’t heal right. I now need surgery again (not going to do it!) thanks to my rushing and being in a hurry. Learn from my mistakes!

    😔😔 I will remain bed ridden for as long as necessary! I have a couple people who can help me as needed!
