Best Foot Forward

This weeks has been a rough one. First I sprained my ankle pretty badly playing hoops on Monday. Here is a picture of it today (Saturday), 5 days later.



I have been on crutches all week. I went to the emergency room on Monday night to get my ankle x-rayed. I wanted to be sure that there wasn't bone damage. There wasn't so I made an appointment to see an ortho on Thursday. He looked me over and told me to come back in a week. He was thorough and explained things to me in good English. I have to wear a brace for at least another week. The swelling has gone down immensely in the last 24 hours. I think keeping off it and icing it regularly has helped a lot.

On top of that J has come down with a pretty bad cold. She feels like crud but in true form barely complains at all.

We fly back to the states in 3 weeks. I'm participating in a training all this week so I really only have 2 weeks left of teaching.

Time flies when your having fun.
