Two weeks and four days after my ankle injury...I CAN WALK. Okay...let me back up and tell you how I got here. One week after my fall, I saw my family doctor and he put me in a walking boot. I felt like I could do anything in that boot. I could walk without crutches. And, btw...walking in crutches is no joke! It's so hard when you have legos, and barbies, and crayons, and shoes scattered all over the house. Mami can not have crutches...One evening Marcus left w the kids to visit his mom so I could rest. Well, I got up, hobbled on my crutches to the kitchen and made a bowl of frosted flakes and then realized "uh, how am I gonna hold my crutches and my bowl of cereal and make it back to my room???" So I ate it standing up at the kitchen counter....Boo! Anyway...so with the walking boot I have free hands. And I can drive my pickup because it's a standard transmission. So, me, the busy body, took off. I was running errands, chasing (limping) after kids, and doing my normal routine. And in the evenings my foot would swell. So my running around lasted for about...two days. I had to rest. And now, fast forward to today. I can bear weight. Bruising for the most part is gone. And the swelling is minimal. I can now see the bones in my foot. As to where a week ago...my ankle joint was buried somewhere underneath the swollen tissue. So...PRAISE THE LORD. I am almost normal. I can't wait to run. I can't wait to wear a shoe on my left foot. I can't wait to kick a ball. Or wear some sexy heels. (hey, I am a girl) My recovery is coming along nicely.
Oh and another new piece of info....I think I got a part-time job! I say "I think" because I interviewed and the manager and I hit it off great. She gave me all the 'criminal background' paperwork and then said, "well, I have to wait for this to come back, then we'll look at getting you on the schedule." HUH? Is that the same as, 'welcome to our team!' Idk. But I'm claiming it as mine. So soon I'll be a part-time employee...doing what I already do, and getting paid to do it! Sweet. I'll exaggerate more...when I know for sure that I'm actually employed. Heehee.
Kids going wild in my house tonight. Husband playing Wii. Mami in a walking boot. Guess who moves faster?

Utility sink is larger than the standard sinks which are employed within the kitchen. Bar sinks can be applied for a large selection of purposes including bathing pet and washing shoes. Utility sinks also has a nice searching appearance.
