Good Morning,

A trip to the store and somr chores around here this morning, then no plans for the rest of the weekend.
I am sure I will find stuff to do, I always can.
I hope everyone has a great weekend, it is suppose to be in the 60's for the next 5 days.
Life is good.

Good evening Crystal and the rest of Illinois!
Crystal.....LOVE the new pic! You are SO beautiful!
Finally got upstairs after 2 days away. Wish I had a laptop......would make the time go by quicker. Nothing much on TV and guess what???? I was looking forward to catching up on Criminal Minds and they play the SAME shows each weekday! Urrrr. So, after Monday, I saw all they had to offer. Wednesday we watched "Face Off" on SyFy and it is good.
Anyway.....here's what is up. Doctor on Wednesday said that I need surgery to realign the ankle. I said, "what about the knee?" He said come back for an MRI and we will see. Went today for an MRI and although the knee has some damage, he does not think that surgery on the knee is warranted. Hopefully, all the rest I will be doing for the ankle will heal the knee. SO, a little bit of good news there. The new splint I have now is called a "bulky" splint and it is plaster and LOTS of cotton. It is HUGE and HEAVY! I will have one just like this after surgery for 2 weeks then will graduate to a regular cast. Surgery is on Monday at about noon or 12:30. Should be outpatient so I will be home by Monday night. I HATE how insurance companies make us do this. I would feel MUCH better in overnight since we live about a half an hour away. Oh well.
The family is doing bettter about taking care of me. I sent Todd to the store for cottage cheese and other protien things and keep a cooler by my chair. I am also going to make sure to get at leat 3 protien drinks in each day to help with healing. Gotta make the best of it. I have decided that this is just the "break" I needed from work. Since I can't get upstairs, I can't even work from home so I have put them out of my mind.
I am hoping for good news from Lisa. Sending good thoughts.......
Everyone have a lovely weekend! Thank for all the good prayers, energy and thoughts!

Good Evening Illinois!
Quick fly by to check on everyone. Lisa and Dawn, keeping you both in my prayers. Dawn, I was interested to hear about what happened with your ortho. appt. Will pray for a very successful surgery and you are right, put work out of your head right now and concentrate on YOU! Good idea to keep the protein drinks going to help with the healing. Lisa, hoping you have good news when you get your report back.
Everyone have a great weekend.
