I'm a Klutz
Well, on Friday I went to the museum and as I was walking down the concrete stairs of the parking garage and I fell. I fell and twisted my ankle and bruised my coccyx (tailbone). So, this whole weekend has been a disaster. When I walk I'm ok for several steps and then my ankle gives out and the pain is excruciating. Fortunately, the Ace ankle brace I bought is helping with that and my swelling seems to have gone down. My butt is a whole other story. It's the worst pain and it's horrible not to be able to sit down comfortably. I have to lay on my side and even then it still hurts a little. I've been lugging around an inflatable doughnut, which helps some in the car but is really not all that great. I had to cancel my horseback riding lesson for Monday, which sucks because I FINALLY got the hang of cantering last week. It was exhilarating to be going that fast on my horse. Lots of fun! =) I'm majorly pissed that I won't be able to workout all week. I don't even know when I'll be able to go back to the gym. I'll make a feeble attempt to scarf veggies and salads all week.
On a sad note, I noticed that my cat has a smudgy, cloudy spot on the lens of his eye. I made an appointment with the vet for Monday. I read up on cat eye problems and it could be a harmless thing due to aging or it could be something horrible like a cataract. I've been totally freaking out, because my cat is my baby. I'm so worried about him. Also, he hates his cat carrier and I know it's going to be a fiasco trying to get him in there on Monday so I can take him to the vet. He'll probably shed me to pieces out of terror. =(
Bad weekend, bad...

Melissa, hope you get better soon. You'll be in my prayers.
...and the cat, too.
Last night Vanessa, age 5, was asking me if our fish and hamster were considered part of our family. I said yes. Within 2 minutes the kids' show we were watching on TV at that time asked her what kind of animals were part of her family. Vanessa just smiled...
Hope you feel better, that was just a nasty tumble.. and I hope everything is ok with your cat too..
and to put a funny spin on it.. that inflatable donut, just reminds me of bad boys 2.. lol
Thanks for all your concern. Things are better now. I'll be posting later today. I've been busy the past few days hobbling around.
