A Big Flip and then Flop..

Call me a Klutz but I now have a possible torn ligament in my foot. I was trying to think of a creative reason for my mishap but the plain truth is quite cominical if the truth be told. My darling little girl loves to leave things laying around the house. While traveling through my house saturday night and flipping off lights on my way to my bedroom, I stumbled on something in the hallway and landed very wrong on my foot and heard a snap, crack, pop sound that puts Rice Krispies to shame. I also jarred my hip. The obstacle in my path was a lime green and purple Flip Flop Sandal that belongs to the little "Fashion Princess" herself. Sunday I took a trip to the Er with my husband ,after my children were in the care of my in laws, and went through X-Rays to my foot, ankle and hip. They drugged me with a pain pill, wrapped me up in an ace bandage and air cast and proceeded to give me a quick tutorial in Crutches 101. After making an attempt to walk with them without landing on my face they had me sign papers and sent me on my way. I was given strict instructions to ice it, keep it elevated and take the meds. How do you stay off your foot with three little monkeys running around who still "need" me for everything. Fat Chance at resting. I have been doing my best!! My darling husband has had to pick up the slack and take on my duties. Can you hear my little violins playing for him? Welcome to my World of Kids!!
Why couldn't I have least been trying a new dance move? Or skiing the French Alps ? Note to self.......Enforce a Zero tolerance for flip flop offenders.

" You Can't Marry Him"

It seems like forever since I have taken the time to Blog. I haven't even read the blogs that I usually read. I feel so out of touch with people's lives.

Saturday my daughter Kiarrah and I went to a Bridal Shower for "Auntie Frances" It was a nice little shower with Fran's close friends and family. Kiarrah got all dressed up in a party dress and lace socks and her church shoes. She even matched the party decorations with the colors she was wearing. Kiarrah is not very happy about Fran marrying Seth. She told Fran that she can't marry Seth because she wanted to marry him. She has a little crush on him. Fran's mom asked me if I though we could train Kiarrah to say that at the wedding when the minister asked if anyone objects. She is being serious. My son Dominic is going to be the ringbear at that wedding. I can't wait to see him all dressed up.
