Broken :(

Im not sure what I have done to deserve such terrible luck  but Im beginning to think its something cause Karma has not been nice to me at all!!  Everytime something goes positive for me its backed up with something very negative.  Maybe its the Libra in me.  Im always balancing between good and evil.  Ive been doing really well the last week or so, even taking up Zumba and really enjoying it.  I have lost enough so that my feet arent killing me and Im starting to not get so winded and even devoloping more balance and coordination.  Ive been so proud of myself.  I thought I was stalling in my weightloss a little bit and then last week weighed and had lost another 4-5 pounds in the last couple of weeks.  Tuesday night is my poker night.  After poker I was saying goodbye to my friend and he gave me a big bear hug.  He squeezed pretty tight and I commented that it almost popped my back.  With that comment he picked me up and gave me a big squeeze.  As soon as he did I knew something was wrong.  It almost squeezed the breath out of me.  My rib area hurt so bad.   I muttered out that I thought he broke my rib.  He blew it off thinking I was just talking shit.  I wasnt.  I knew I was hurt.  I drove home in pain, grabbed a couple of Tylenol and went to bed.   As soon as I woke I went to Dr.  Dr prescribed pain pills but said there wasnt anything more he could do if it was broken or just bruised.  He said if he was guessing he would think broken but probably just a crack, not broke in two.  I had my xray today and will know results by Monday.  Im certainly hoping for it to just be bruised but, who knows??   I will be in pain for at least a few weeks.  Who gets a hug and breaks a rib??  Seriously??  My Zumba career has been put on hold.  Hopefully it wont make me stall too much.  I will still be able to walk.  So I guess thats what I will do.  Im so disappointed!!!  I really loved Zumba!!!

prom
on July 11, 2011 12:18 pm
Last night I had a dinner party for a few friends. One of my gf's asked me of I would go to this prom thing in C'dale next month with her. At first I told her no and that I didnt want to buy a fancy/schmancy dress just for a silly night out. Then I got to thinking. I had a dress I wore a few years ago for a cruise. It turned into a style show. Pretty funny, actually. The dress way too big but it could be altered. Dress #1, possibility. Then I had a long black satin dress I had worn in a wedding about 5 years ago. Tried that on. Pretty decent fit and its still in style. Dress #2, def possibility. Then I reached waaaaay into the back of my closet. Black chiffon dress I looooved from 12 years ago. I wore it in a wedding when my teenage son was 2. Its gonna be a tight fit, I told my friend. I pulled it up and squished in the middle for her to help me with the zipper. She informed me I really didnt need to do that!!! It fits!!! Yea!!! I think Dress #3 may just be my prom dress. All the guys gave votes at which I should wear and all of them were conflicting votes so I think Im on my own. haha It was really fun though and it was the perfect group of supportive friends to have been able to share that with. Now, Bring on the Prom!!!! Pics to follow later!
