OT Kids' party was AWESOME...with a little downside

The strawberries were a big hit at the party. One of the diabetic kids did end up coming and her parents were in awe that I had so many sugar free/ low carb items. lol They have to track everything for her, so they appreciated the lifestyle. We all had a great time. The only downside was when we took down the bounce house. Hubby and I were putting it into the car and one of the giant tie down spikes fell on the top of my foot. These suckers weigh about 20-30 lbs each. My foot became swollen and bruised. I tried walking on it this morning and couldn't. The ER says it's not broken, but it is "a deep and severe contusion". The doc told me to not be surprised if the bruising moves all the way down to the arch of my foot. Grrrrrreat! Just call me GRACE! I have the oh so fashionable walking shoe and lots of pain pills. He told me it will hurt more than a break for about a week.

When I mess myself up, I go big or go home. This time, I went big AT home. haha At least I can laugh about it, otherwise I would cry. Oh well, back to our routines tomorrow. :)

Sorry about your accident. I know what you mean about being graceful, i'm not either. Glad the party was a success though. Make sure you stay off of it if it starts to swell any more than usuall.

You survived what you thought would kill you. Now straighten your crown and go forward like the Queen you are!

That's exactly what I'm doing. Hubby has been amazing about getting things done for me and letting me rest.
