We decided to venture out again to Pineview lake and take a swim. Matt and the kids had found a new spot to swim with a rope swing. Before we left Matt dared me to go on the swing. When we got there I took one look at it and knew it was to high for me to climb up there and swing from it. For heavens sake you had to climg about 6 ft up the tree just to reach the rope! So I go out and swim for a bit. Then I decided to get brave and go off of it. I couldn't climb all the way up the rope to the stick so off I went. 1. I found I didn't have a very good hold on the rope, and 2. My feet skimmed across the top of the water stopping me short of where I needed to be. My hands slipped off the rope and I fell into the water in the shallow part and my right ankle took the brunt of it. I swore I broke it right then and there. We went home that night and I elevated it and iced it to see how it would fair. I woke up this morning I couldn't even walk on it. Matt got off work early and took me to the dr. They did some x rays and my bones were fine. I tore the ligaments in my foot and I am in an aircast for 3-4 weeks. The best part of all of this is a manadatory 3 days off of work, and I know when I go back on monday that I wont be able to work full force and stand on my feet for 5 hours.
Pictures to come later. Right now I am on crutches so I can get around the house, or I would be couch or bed bound. Right now I am bored out of my MIND!!! I need some entertainment! LOL!
