Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

Good news/Bad News

So today I had a lot to do.  Tomorrow I am going to have 7 people stay over tomorrow night.  I decided that I wanted to get the house ready today because I don't want to be exhausted tomorrow night when we party.  

The good news: DD went down for a nap and slept for 5 hours.  I got the house spotless.  I got dinner simmering on the stove.  DD woke up at precicely the time I had 10 minutes to spare.  She was in a good mood.  DH walked in the door and took out the trash without being asked. 

The bad news:  As I was bringing DD down the stairs I stepped in a puddle of melted snow at the bottom of the stairs, slipped,  felt my ankle pop,  DD and I both landed hard.  DD hit her bum pretty hard but was more freaked out by the sudden landing than anything else but in my attempt to protect her head,  I scraped my arm from wrist to elbow and I can't put weight on my left foot.  So while I won't be exhausted partying tomorrow I won't be able to walk either.  The party tomorrow is a theme party and we are supposed to go in costume.  A big part of my costume was a kick assed pair of red stilettoes.  Guess that's not going to happen now.  Oh well.   I will bring the shoes and I can show people what I was supposed to wear.

  • Oh no... thats awful. THat has happened to me a few times. I miss a step sometimes and end up spraining my ankle.. make sure to take some ibprofen, elevate your ankle and put ice on it.. even when your sleeping.. hopefully the swelling will be down before your party tomorrow and maybe you can walk by then! Goodluck!

    We all have to dress like Rock Stars.  I am going as Bif Naken.  I have bought a thousand temporary tattoos.  Tomorrow night I will have a full set of sleeves. lol
