Yep, these handy dandy crutches are mine to enjoy for another couple days!!! I know you're all jealous! hahaha As most of you know, I help catch grain during the harvest season and have been putting plenty of hours in this fall with the gorgeous weather we've been having. Friday night, the back tractor tire flipped up some barbed wire and since I had a few minutes to wait I thought I'd get out and grab it. When getting out of the tractor, I managed to hit the ground wrong, heard about 5 or 6 popping sounds, then my whole body was on the ground!! At first I thought I broke it because it was constant shooting pain up my leg but luckily, after x-rays Saturday morning, it is just a bad sprain but I managed to strain my tendons so I have a hard time moving my foot left and right. I am able to put weight on it, but the doctor said I needed to stay off it in order for it to heal quicker...to which I snickered!!! ME, not moving around??? I think she figured out that was going to be hard for me so she told me I either needed to use crutches when I was up and moving or she was going to put a splint on me so I COULDN'T get around!!! Needless to say - I chose the crutches!
