Lots of Fun!!
So I broke my foot today....yep, you read it correctly! Awesome huh? I was late for church (of course) I told Jason to take the boys and head down. I told him to take the car and I would just walk down. It was snowing so I bundled up and Louie and I headed down the hill to church. I was feeling pretty good about myself that we had survived the hill, just as we rounded the corner (just across the street from the church mind you) I slipped, and my foot somehow ended up underneath me and I landed right on top of it with my big arse. So it totally hurt of course and I was pretty sure I did some kind of damage so I tried to get up to walk to the church to get Jason to help me. However, when I tried to walk I totally couldn't, it felt really strange and hurt like you know what. After trying to walk, I realized I was not going to be able to make it to the church, or my house. All my neighbors were at church so I couldn't crawl to anyones house. I didn't have my phone so I couldn't call anyone, (they would have been at church anyways). So I did the only thing I could think of at the moment and I sat down in the snow and cried hysterically. Which is where a man in my ward found me with Louie at my side also crying hysterically. He kept pulling my hand and pushing my back saying, "Come on Mom, let's go." Anyways, the man in my ward helped me into his car and got Louie in the car and drove to the church and went in and got Jason. Jason drove me to the instacare and we got xrays and it was broken. I have a post tibial fracture so I have to be on crutches, I can't put any weight on my foot and I get to go see a Sports doctor to get a cast this week. Yipee. I am not sure what we are going to do for the next six weeks but it should be interesting at our house!!

Oh my goodness!!!! You poor thing.
I was sooooo lucky that my fall down the stairs didn't break my ankle, but before I knew it wasn't broken I just cried and cried and cried because I was sooo overwhelmed with how I was going to be a mom and take care of my family. And I wasn't sitting out in the snow crying hysterically. Every little detail about your story makes it so sad.
I feel so bad for you. You are right. Things are going to be interesting. I know you have lots of good friends, but make sure you think of me too if there is anything I can do for you. Please, please, please don't be afraid to ask.
Oh my gosh!! That is terrible. I hope that you are okay. I can't believe that, I would probably do the same thing too. I cried when Makenna broke her arm, so if it were me... there would be tears for sure. Let me know if there is anything you need, I don't live close, but could make the trek up that way if you need help!! I'll call you later this week and see how you are doing.
Holy Cow! That is crazy. Send your kids down to my place and we will have the greatest time!!!!!! Or maybe you should just come and I will take care of you.
Oh I am so sorry!
Natalie! That is _so_ against the rules. No post tibial fractures allowed! You rebel.
Good story. Bad news. I'm sorry it happened to you.
I'm not too far away if I can help!
Oh Jeez! I hope it healed quickly and you're out running before you know it! Good luck! :)
Where are you? I haven't heard from you for a very long time. But I think about you a lot!
