The Night of Bloopers

So tonight I am not sure what was the deal but it was just the worst day ever.... if anything could go wrong it DID!!!!

So I barely make it thru my day on one leg feeding horses, making dinner, doing laundry, etc and I walk (hop really) into the bathroom to get some laundry sorted and I got that all taken care of and upon my departure there must have been a wet spot on the linoleum and swwwooooopppp my crutch slides across the floor just as I put my weight on it to move forward and boom down I went... I put full weight on my cast and my bad ankle then fell forward as I heard a pop and flat on my face.... ugggg

So i try to get up and my knee on the "good" leg is sending shooting pains thru my knee and down my leg... oh NOOOO!!! I can not get up... So what does a girl do? Lay there and cry while trying to figure out how I am gonna get myself off the bathroom floor... Then after my little pitty party of " I have fallen and I can't get up!" I rolled over on my rear end and scooted my way over into the bedroom and next to the bed. There I was able to use my arms by leaning on the bed and the knee that was killing me to push myself up. I rolled myself into the bed and layed down for quite sometime. 

After laying down for a bit, I am realizing that EVERYTHING is hurting I am sore.. So my next most brilliant idea is to get in my big huge cozy bath tub and soak for awhile and just relax.. its been a long day I need to relax, I deserve it right?! So I run the water all cozy and warm, get my leg all wrapped up in the plastic bag and tied off so I keep it dry,  and get myself in the bath and I am chillin and enjoying the bubbles and what not, then it comes time I need to wash my hair... and WHAT!?!?!? my shampoo and conditioner is GONE... my daughter must have used it in the shower earlier and did not put it back.... arrgggg so freezing cold I get out of the bath now scared to death cause I am dripping wet and don't want to slip again and trying to get to the shampoo and conditioner... so I get that and all is well back to the tub to get warm and wash my hair. All done get out of the bath and mind you 99% of the time my leg is not down in the water it is propped up on the edge of the tub, and uh oh the bag over my cast has a good amount of water in it and I touch the heel of my cast and it is sticky and wet!! The entire back of my leg, my heel and bottom of foot are wet. If feels a bit wet inside of the cast under my foot as well. UGGG!!!

So per the nurses instruction when I got the cast you are suppose to use a hair dryer on a cool setting and dry it until the next morning when you can call the ortho office..... soooo in the theme of the night what happens??? The cool setting on my hair dryer is NOT working it will only blow HOT air..... ARGGGGG what else could go wrong...  :(  I used the regular hot setting to dry the cast but could not dry inside under my foot soooo a call to the doctor is in order either way but even more so now.

After I dried the cast and got rid of all the stickiness I decided that I just needed to GO TO BED!! So taking some pain meds and off to dreamland I go!

Praying for a better day tomorrow!
