Most Clumsiest

Well, I've gone and done it! I've always wondered how I managed to get to my current age without any broken bones, as I've always been so clumsy. I was even voted Most Clumsiest when I was a senior in high school.

This past Thursday, I was getting up off the couch to pick up Lauren at her friend's house when I slipped on the wood floors and rolled my ankle completely over. As I was going down, I heard a loud crack! I laid there with Emily and her friend Macy starring at me lying on the ground crying. Must of been a funny sight. I couldn't get up and after about 15 minutes I scooted my way to the couch.

I propped my foot up and managed to call my friend/neighbor Angela to come over. She took one look at me and told me to call the doctor. My foot was warm to the touch and there was the beginnings of a large golf ball size knot on my foot. Next, I called my mom to take me to RediMed, so Lauren could stay home with Emily and her friend.

My mom and I went to RediMed and they were really nice to me. I had x-rays done and they discovered that I had fractured the bone between my ankle and my toe bone. YAY! So now I have to keep it basically propped up for 1 week with no pressure on it. After that week then I'm supposed to use a special shoe to walk around in. The nurse practitioner says it should take 6 to 8 weeks to heal. Which is basically the whole summer, the rest of my time off! Yuck!

So for me, no more softball, no cleaning, no New York City(might have gone with my mom and dad), no nothing!! I'm praying that since it is only a fracture it will heal quickly and I will be able to do all the things that I want to do soon!

Dance Recital Rehersal 2009

Yesterday, was Lauren and Emily dance recital rehearsal. They've been working hard all year and now they finally get to show us what they've been doing. Both girls like dance, but Emily is more into it than Lauren. She tried out for the Extreme Team again and we won't find out if she made it for a couple more weeks. The team is a more intensive program than the regular dance classes.

Anyways, yesterday we had to be at the rehearsal at 2pm sharp and I had to pick up Emily's babysitter, Alex, and Lauren's boyfriend, Jared, who couldn't come to the recital so he came to the rehearsal. Both the babysitter and boyfriend live out past Reese, so we left home at 11am to run out to my classroom, first, and then left to pick everyone up. We arrived at the Temple Theatre around 1:30pm and got everyone situated for the rehearsal, which lasted until 7pm! We were there for a long time, getting Emily ready for all her dances and once she was done with them and Lauren was done with her dance, then we could leave, so we actually left and they had more dances to go.

Afterwards, we headed to Fuzzy's for supper and ice cream! Yum, Yum! Then we took both Alex and Jared back out to my school, where they were being picked up by Alex's mom. We all had a nice time and Alex and Jared didn't seem too bored/disturbed by the length of the rehearsal:) So, tonight we have the real deal, the recital! I'm excited because my good friend, Dawn, is coming and I'm glad! Below are pictures of the girls at the rehearsal and then tomorrow I will post a few pictures from the recital. Enjoy!!
