So I’ve got a bum leg-but that doesn’t mean I shouldn’t try to keep up, right? Figuring out how to move was difficult-and I needed the clearance of my orthopedic doctor.
The last thing I want to do is injure myself worse and not heal for a long, long time. Speaking of which, I have a fun story for you.
So Ish decided that he wanted some sardines on Sunday night. No biggie…except he didn’t open them over the sink, no, he opened the can in the middle of the floor. And it spilled everywhere. He cleaned it up-like men will do.
Fast forward to Wednesday night, when Smalls needs help getting his dinner and I’m hobbling into the kitchen on my crutches…right into the sardine oil…or what was left of it. My crutches slid, my cast hit the floor, and I heard a POP. Not.Good.
I went back to my orthopedic doctor on Friday, and he took additional images, which determined that my leg was not worse! YAY! Okay…time for my weekly workouts, y’all.
