misery
I'm miserable. I know I shouldn't be I have so much to be grateful for. My love language is service. I'm stuck here, I'm in a lot of pain, I hate asking everyone for every little thing, I'm super uncoordinated (no kidding) so I am not good on the crutches. I hate this. I. hate. this. I go to the orthopedic doctor on monday I hope they cast it. I hope it stops hurting so bad. I hope I fall asleep & wake up all better. I wish I would've gotten more done this summer. Sitting here looking at the messes I've been meaning to get to is killing me. I feel heavy & sad. If Brian were here he would sing me a song on the guitar he made up about how clumsy I am. trent tells me I need one of those neclaces on tv so that if I fall again I can push a button & an ambulance will come. Sitting, is hard for me. Everyone says i need to rest. I can't I don't know how. I'm miserable.

My dear sweet Patsy. I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL!!! Wallow in your misery for a bit, but know that it WILL get better!!! I can come and sit by you and wallow with you if you like, that should be fun - two old ladies on LORATAB and feeling sorry for themselves. I just had to check out your blog after I heard that you fell. I am so Sorry! If i weren't recovering from another surgery yesterday I would be there making dinner. Call Me! Love you, Charli
Hang in there Patsy!!! Next the blogger moms will come over and keep you company!!! Keep taking the motrin and loratab and be a good girl!!! Love ya!!!!
I'm sorry you fell and broke your ankle. I feel so sorry I wish there were something I could do. Let us know if you need anything. Love you. Mom
Patsy~ I am really hoping they cast it for you on Monday too:)
I am hoping the pain is going to get better and you can get this behind you. It is hard to have to be still when you want to be moving! Hang in there:) We are up for lots of gettin it done days at your house:)
i would totally play a song on the guitar for you! only, i can't play the guitar. but that would be funny, right? and you would laugh? and for a moment, there would be no pain (well, except maybe a ringing in your ears.)
i know that this is going to be a tough trial for you. you are strong, and surrounded by some many wonderful people. get some rest, friend.
Oh Patsy, I'm so sorry that you're in so much pain and are feeling so miserable. I can imagine how hard it must be for a girl-on-the-go like yourself. Perhaps this will be a good time for you to learn how to let others serve you, and for your family to get an idea of how much you do.
Do you have any good books to read? Cards to write? Sleeping to do? If you're too uncomfortable for any of those things I would suggest whimpering pathetically and sighing often. Take care!!
Oh, Patsy. It is so hard to be in pain. And looking around at messes that you want to clean up, that's the worst!
If your love language is service (as is mine), you'll be receiving plenty of it! (Why is that so hard to do when you're truly in need? for me too.) I suggest watching lots of movies, reading good books, and trying to sleep so you don't have to see the things you wish you could do... feel better soon!
p.s. the first thing I thought of when I saw your title was the movie Misery, when the man has broken ankles (inflicted by a maniac, yes, but still...) Was that intentional? Funny, yet sad.
o yuck! sorry you are having a tough time - hopefully pain relief will come soon so you can take it easy and enjoy some down time.
Hey have you started the angry housewives book yet?? I bet you haven't because you'll be laughing if you do!!! I will come sit with you so you aren't board "K".
