Having an awful day.

Tuesday afternoon I was walking DH out to his car from our apartment, and on the step off the stoop to the sidewalk, I landed on my right ankle, skinned my right knee and ripped a hole in my jeans. Was in bed the rest of the evening, and started to feel a little better.

Yesterday (Wed) I could walk on it a bit, so I did. Up and down flights of stairs, taking it slow, and all was well...

....then....

Today, we're leaving to mail out wedding invites, and IT HAPPENS AGAIN. Same step, same ankle, same shoes (slip on vans).

I mean...what are the odds it happens twice in 3 days, when I have lived here months and never fell???!!!! Best I can gather is I was hobbling on it, and stepped off to hard, and twisted it again. Now I can wiggle my toes, but not bend my foot. Curled up (as best I can whilst elevating my foot) with some tea and a movie, til DH gets home later.

Hoping I didn't break it, as we have no insurance...

Sorry, rant over. How is everyone else?

Only 1 month till your wedding, how exciting!

Ouch! Sounds painful babes. Fingers crossed its not broken - i shouldnt think it is. Im sure you would know if you had broken it.

Just chill out, relax, have a little rest and enjoy having your feet up - hehe.
Maybe try some Arnica as its meant to help with bruising.
