My Drama Continues!!!

So here goes...yet another Stupid is as Stupid does moment!!!

For those of you who don't know we have a drive in movie theater in Ennis (Garrett) off of I-45, well we like to go out there, and Logan just loves it. So here goes the rest of the story!
We went on the spur of the moment last weekend to see Journey to the Center of the Earth & Wall*E, they were both good movies. We got there right at Journey was starting, and I decided I would make the 1st Concession stand run...I have to use the facilities as well. So if anyone has ever been to a drive in you know they have little fences that divide the 'theaters'. As I stepped over the little rail, my right foot made it fine, but the left foot that was a different story! I hit it on the license plate of the vehicle that was sitting on the left side of the rail. Well I noticed I had cut my toe, so I cleaned it up. As I waited in line, I got very neasuated. When I got back to the car it was already starting to swell. I had a really bad feeling. But hell we were having fun why worry.

So I sat in the car watching the 2 movies, when it was time to go, I stood up and felt lots of pain and swelling. Since I had broken my right foot 2 yrs ago I had a good feeling I had done it again. Once we got home, I took some medicine, went to bed and proped up my foot to keep the swelling down. Well that worked until the next morning, when I got up to take a shower, and it swelled back up like a.....run over oppossim on a hot summer day. So off to CareNow we go! Have you ever been to one of these???? The doctors are the smartest people EVER!!!!
She comes in and says, well if it is just broken toe all we can do it Buddy Tape it...well DUH!!!! I told her I thought it was more than that...So off to X-Ray! NOW as I stated in a pervious blog about 'specialist' like these...Come on what you do is not rocket science, hang up the damn X-Ray, it is my foot, Either the bone is broken or it is not!! So the dr comes back in and says....well you have done more that broken the toe, you did it good....OK SO WHAT DID I DO????? What ever the problem is they 1 dont know it OR 2 arent sure...so the toe is broke, the foot bone has a hairline crack in it!!!

Now fastward to Wednesday...In Dr Wong's office, this is the greatest orthopedic dr in the WORLD! He is super. He is not worried about toe, BUT the 5th metatraxial bone is broken at the joint and I am pretty sure the hairline fracture is still there. Now if you recall....foot broken 2 yrs ago; I still have the necessary hardware! My orders . . Fruits, Veggies, more Dairy....get as much calcium from natural sources as possible. Wear the boot all the time except to shower, and a little rest in the evening. Oh yeah....BTW if you get the orders NWB mean Non Weight Bearing, so i have to use crutches too....THIS KEEPS GETTING BETTER!

In 6 weeks Logan starts Kindergarten, in 5 weeks are going on vacation...well we will be off work...I guess we will be looking into a Staycation since I have to be in the boot until AUGUST 30!!!! Oh yeah we also go to the Great American Truck show every year, so I will be doing that in a wheel chairor on crutches.

I do know from the last time I used Dr Wong. The man knows what he is talking about, so as much as I hate it...I will conform to the orders of the power that be. As long as I can be better with out surgery, and by the time Logan starts football.

I will keep you posted. Oh yeah...I am still working. Since it is my left foot I can still drive and I still have some freedom. But the ladies I work with are being so helpful, they make sure I have beverage, and lunch. They have gone above and beyond...Especially K-Wils...she is the best....But the other girl...I can not say who she is since she is in my top friends and ALWAYS reads my blogs..she has not been as helpful....I guess she will not be rewarded when BOBBY CROCKER bakes for those who have been most helpful.

Love Ya E!!
