168: the colors of youth or don’t try this unless you are a professional

Linda July 31st, 2010

For my and my daughters birthday we went to a vacation house in Pacific Beach Wa.  Lovely quiet place to go–small small small (did I small?) town and you just walk everywhere..beach is just a few blocks away.  We were playing at the play ground the first night we were there.  I was feeling sprightly and decided to jump out of the swing I was swinging on…landed mostly on my right foot–heard/felt a “pop”…and you can see the result.  Iced it, wrapped it and then proceeded as normal.  Dh convinced me to go to the Dr.  when we got home (4 days later).  I am told that I broke my ankle (or some such thing).  It really does not hurt all that much and now is starting to itch.  The biggest annoyance is the walking boot I need to wear and have my 17 year old drive me ;0(  This on top of, Scott gave me a fancy Brother sewing machine for my b-day and I can’t use it because of the stupid robo-foot I now have…ARGH!!!!!!!!!!

(the colors have actually gotten more intense and vibrant at this point–LOL).  I told Scott that next time I jump out of a swing I will use “spotters”…the little girls at work feel sorry for my ankle but think I am very cool for breaking it that way LOL!!!  Nice picture of one of my tatts huh?!
