Evenin' people!
My shocker of a year as far as health and injuries goes continues right to the end. THIS time, it's a really, really badly sprianed ankle. I stuffed it walking home from work through the reserve that runs parallel to my street. I tripped over something -- I'm not sure what, but all I knew was that this was a whole lot more than just a twisted ankle. For one thing it hurt like buggery. I couldn't even limp home, I had to call mum from a few hundred metres from home and get her to help me hop the rest of the way -- it was pretty embarassing.
Anywho we got all the scans etc done straight away and got it all bandaged up. I'm on crutches for 1-2 weeks. I just hope I can at least walk for NYE.
Then to continue the drama, I was a an old neighbours Christmas party and a few hours into it I started to feel really wierd... My heart started beating fast and breathing was wierd. I told dad I needed to go lie down and just as I got to the door to go inside -- I fainted. I woke up on the couch with all these people standing over me :S
Anyway I'm feeling better now... I went to work today and just kept my leg up most of the day. My desk is in a corner so I can stretch my leg out a lot... I've got a box with a cushion on top to keep it comfy and it works very well. I had physio today and will get more tomorrow morning... There's so little movement in the ankle ATM :(
Here's a busted ankle pic:
Eyes are improving, though.
Anyway thats enough of my woes for now, Catch yez all later.
