Injury Update

Dec 11, 2015 | Rita

desktop computer  news

As you all know I have been down for the count with my injury and had hoped to be caught up by now but sadly that was not the case. However I just spend the day writing and editing about twenty articles that will be posting over the course of the next couple of weeks that will bring me back up to speed.

I wanted to update you on my injury and then let you know a little about what will be coming soon. As you can see from the photo my foot is healing well. That bar at the bottom of the shopping cart can be rough and when someone isn’t paying attention it can really hurt someone else. So when you are in the store pushing a cart PLEASE don’t push it like it in the Indy 500 and you don’t care who happens to be in the way.

I am finally able to walk fairly normally on it and can even get in and out of the Jeep with little help. There is nothing worse than being confined to one space. This injury has resulted in other issues but the doctors here feel that things will resolve on their own without the need for surgery. One of the screws in my ankle was knocked out-of-place and it still hurts like the dickens but what can you do.

Coming Shortly

As for what is coming soon, there are several articles that I have ready for you. They include but are not limited to:

  • Lily Jade Diaper Bag
  • Willamy Collection
  • Ant Man
  • Christmas Classics
  • Family Get Together
  • The Year the Turkey Hit the Ceiling
  • Newsletter Changes for the New Year
  • Zales
  • Birthday’s Close to Christmas
  • The Santa Sit Down
  • The Croods
  • and so much more!

    I can still see the swelling, but it does look a lot better. Don’t think you can get going, yet—let it heal all the way!

      Yeah there is still plenty of swelling and if I am up on it for more than an hour or so it is really swollen. That is the injury to the screw on top of the poor circulation. I am letting it heal as well as I can and taking it easy as much as I can with everything else going on.

    I’m glad that you’re healing, but very sorry you’re having to go through this.

    I’m glad you’re healing. I can’t imagine your pain, I’ve been hit by one of those cart bars before and without any prior injuries, it hurt like crazy, so it must be agonizing for you. I don’t know why stores don’t go to the dollar store, get some of those foam tubes (for swimming) or the hardware store and get the foam pipe covers and cover those bars. It would be so cheap, would wear well in the weather and would stop these all too frequent injuries. Maybe you could suggest it to the store mgr.?
    Wishes for a speedy recovery.

      That is a wonderful idea and I will suggest it to someone. Not sure that it will do any good but you would think they would do something about those things.

    so sorry this happened to you. I still looks pretty painful, I’m glad it is a little better.

      Thank you. It is painful but it is much better than it was.

      You’re right and I am working on doing that as much as I can.
