What happens when you skip church!

On Sunday around 3:30 while filling the water jugs at the Old Shoppett , I was stepping off the curb when my left foot stepped in a (what felt like a huge pothole) small dip in the pavement and I rolled my ankle and fell flat on my face!

Brad and Emily were in the car. Leslie was helping me with the water. The two water jugs that I was caring went flying across the pavement. I have scrapes on both palms of my hands ( the left is worse the the right) Lucky I had on jeans so that saved my knees. My right one has three small bruises on it from the (I believe) three small rocks I fell on, and then my left ankle is HUGE and swollen with bruising on the inside and out side of my ankle,

On the way home from hurting myself Brad asked if I wanted to go to the ER and I said no, that if in the morning I was still in pain and could not walk on it then I will go, (and the last Yankees Home game was on). So that night I iced my ankle and went to bed after the game,
around 2 in the morning I had to get up beause my ankle was throbbing and I needed to use the bathroom. I kind of hopped to the bathroom, and was in so much pain that I crawled back to the bed. By this point I was in so much pain that I was making too much noise and woke up Brad with my whimpering. He got me another icepack and some codeine and said that I slept great after that!

In the morning I called the base Dr. and since I have no Dr. on base they sent me to the ER. We dropped off Emily at a friends house. I got to ride in a wheel chair! and had X-Rays done , when I saw the Dr, she said it was just a bad sprain and they put on a splint and gave me crutches. I am now able to walk on my foot I think a good part is due to the splint. Last night we took it off so I could shower and that is when I saw all the bruising on my ankle that was not there when we went to the ER.! I should be off my foot, like not walking at all, for the next two days but with an almost 3 year old and Brad working all day and Leslie at school that is not going to happen .

Before all this happened we had a wonderful day spending it with our Family ! we took the girls to get the Hannah Montana Build a bear! and got Leslie's Halloween outfit!

I will try to get the photos up later,

Pink Eye

Leslie goes to school this morning rode the bus ! it has started up again!! yeah! the only down side is getting up at 6:25 instead of 7:00 oh well .
so about 9:15 the school calls to say that Leslie has pink eye! ( in all the years she was at the CDC and the past few years of school she has never had it just about 9 years!) so as I am driving to the school calling the appt line (cant drive and talk on the phone at the same time) to them saying there are no appt today and they will see if the DR. will call in the eye drops! She did! school says that she needs to be home for 24 hours after getting the first drop in her eye so that would mean that she would be back at school about 1ish oh but school gets over at 1:15 on Weds! so two days off for Leslie! she is so happy about it, sleeping in (she likes that the most), after school was over we went back and pick up home work and the class work for today and tomorrow!

Emily was happy to have sister home from school! on Tus. she has a play group with some kids from church, so we went to that, left Leslie home with Dad, when it was time to go home Emily go so upset! she loves to play with her friends. and when we got home and had lunch I was able to get the eye drops for Leslie with out the girls so nice! I did get a few text messages from Brad! well video's from him hit the play button and the noise that came form it made me jump! Emily can hit the HI notes!
