Miranda is sitting beside me "reading" one of the earlier Harry Potter books. Of course at only 3 yrs old she isn't reading much, but she is turning the pages and using her finger to follow the sentences.. I went thru some of the pictures that Son Alex took for me yesterday afternoon after I got back from the Dr. office, I will post a few of them. They don't show much, just the incisions and some of the swelling and bruising I still have. Alex ran his fingers gently down the outside of my ankle and he swears he can feel screw heads. I don't know if he really can or not cuz I haven't tried it.
My bright pink cast with the bandaid that Miranda got me to make it feel better.
Some swelling and bruising still.
This is the incision where the plate is. It's about 8" long and there are screws all up the incision holding the plate to my ankle bone.
This is the right side of my ankle. There are 2 screws on this side and the incision is about 4" long. I am just happy I don't have an ankle tattoo. I sure wouldn't have been happy to have something like that messed up...
I got up early this morning before hubby went into work and he helped me get into the shower... Heaven! I sat in there and just let the hot water run down my body and down my leg. It felt so good! You forget how nice those little things can be til you cant do them for awhile. Now I am good for another day
Hubby has to close the store tonight, plus he doesn't get a lunch. Poor guy! He can thank his boss the district manager for that since the district manager is the one that decided hours needed to be cut. Whenever that happens hubby, as the store manager, has to do the extra hours. The guy never gets a break 
So he left at 8:30am today and should get home around 9pm tonight. He'll be one tired guy...Not much else in the way of new stuff from here. Have a great Saturday!!
