Yesterday I was walking Max- long story short- I broke my ankle. Yep it's broken. I'm lucky is what they say. It's a clean break, I don't need surgery- that is lucky!
Anyhow brett was in Houston on business trying to get out of the storm. While I was lying in the street in A LOT of pain. A city worker named DAVE, at least that's what the name on his shirt said, came across the street and helped me - YAE DAVE. I called blogger mom kristy who lived a block away & she came, took max home (she had to drag him in the house because he wouldn't leave me) then took me to instacare for x-rays etc. I was in shock & shaking & kind of a mess (remember I am just a little dramatic at times.) So it's been quite a day...
Well the blogger moms were supposed to go out to lunch for Wende's birthday- I am so stinkin mad that we missed Cheesecake Factory- they all came here with take out & we decorated the best we could. We had a great time while I lay half drugged on the couch loving every minute of it. Brett came home & called me-- spoiled. Yes, I am spoiled.
*thank you dave the city worker guy
*thanks jack for coming home from school, getting my RX, running around the house finding decorations so karrie didn't have to see the inside of my dirty closets
*thanks kristy for saving me off the pavement & not taking my picture even though I told you too (we are going to reenact it someday complete with one of the blogger mom's dressed as DAve)
*thanks karrie for picking up crutches & driving me home & getting me in the house & decorating & making me laugh
*thanks wende, lauri & janae for coming over & staying with me so jack could go back to school,
*everyone for bringing us dinner & spoiling me- I told brett that he could go to work today & you guys could come back ;)
*thanks lori for bringing me diet coke & donuts for breakfast.
*thanks karen for offering over & over to bring dinner tonight
*thanks becky for coming over & rick & linda for helping brett give me a blessing.
I am truly eating...
HUMBLE PIE
I feel like the luckiest, gimpy, uncoordinated gal on the block!

I was so sure you were going to say something about rugby and jack. I am in shock. I can't believe it. I am glad you have so many good friends to take care of you. I wish I was there to help.
I am glad you are blogging!!!! Get better so we can go to the Cheesecake Factory!!!!
I'm sorry to hear about your ankle. You ARE blessed to have so many friends and family helping you and looking after you. You are a great sport to let everyone come over for Wende's party after all you had been through. Fun times! Heal quickly
