Life Update: Well That Didn’t Go As Planned….

Sometimes life throws you a curveball. Sometimes hard things happen and I’m in that season right now. I was just starting to feel like myself again and out of the blue my life changed…again.

We’ve been in the middle of a pregnancy and a home remodel which literally has my life turned upside down. But two weeks ago, I fell off of our backdoor steps. My first concern was the baby but thankfully I landed on my hip and after thorough checking all is well with her. I wasn’t quite as lucky. That fall that happened in about two seconds brought my life to a halt because I broke my left leg and my right ankle.

I’ve had to wear casts for about two weeks now. I’m non-weight bearing on my leg so I’ve learned to hop on my right foot. It’s an interesting sight to see I’m sure, haha.

The pain hasn’t been as bad as I feared it would be. The first week was really tough and basically all I did was eat, sleep, and watch bad sitcom tv. But now the pain has lessened significantly and I follow up with the orthopedic doctor on Wednesday. Send a little prayer up for some good news because I’m tired of staring at my bedroom walls.

Now that I’m feeling a bit better I’ve felt like reading again. I started The God of the Woods on Saturday and I’ve made a decent dent in it. I can tell it’s going to be a slow burn but so far I’m enjoying it. Hopefully, as I continue to heal I’ll find the energy to read and blog again because I really miss it. Here’s hoping that the last half of the year will bring health and happiness to my family and yours. Thanks for coming on this journey with me.

  1. Oh no. So sorry that you damaged your legs so badly but you must have been really thankful that the baby was OK. Fingers crossed for a speedy recovery
