First, a big thank you to all who participated in June's flowers in the house. Whether you brought your garden into your house or your camera into your garden, each and every post was picture and word perfect.
When I get to look at picture after picture of hydrangeas and true garden roses, lisianthus and raspberries, orlaya grandiflower, my new favorite flower,( thank you Denise), bits of shrubbery and handfuls of herbs I am one happy woman. And it couldn't have happened on a better day.....
Because while running errands on Monday with my tall, exuberant friend Anne we suffered a bit of an accident. She tripped, started to slip and threw all her weight and her 5'10" onto me. Me with the just healing ankle. Me with the now freshly tweaked ankle. I stumbled , I flailed, I staggered and somehow I held us both up. Too bad no one got a video of that moment. It must have been the funniest game of Twister ever seen in a mall.
I railed against fate, I complained unceasingly to GG how unfair it was, I talked loudly to myself about how unfair it was and then I got over it. GG said it was an accident.
The brace is back. Apparently I will zumba no more. At least not till after vacation. But it was just a tweak not a sprain and it was an accident. Right? See why I needed those flowers?
3 more days of work and we're off. Off to Cape Cod.
Our annual 4th of July party is cancelled. We're going on holiday.
Your plans?

Oh no. Enjoy a safe, but not so safe there isn't fun, visit to Cape Cod.
ReplyDeleteYikes! Take it easy on the Cape. Enjoy the hydrangeas. http://whoplantsaseed.blogspot.com/2012/02/hydrangeas-cape-cod-and-islands.html http://freshnewenglandhome.blogspot.com/2010/07/hydrangea-heaven-on-cape-cod.html

Have a wonderful trip and a great time. Will miss you, and will be very jealous of your time on the wonderful beach. rest the ankle, if you can. and travel safely. xo
ReplyDeleteAh, poor Jane. You will have to take it easy on holiday and be waited on hand and foot, but especially foot.
ReplyDeleteHow brave of you to sacrifice yourself to save your friend!! (I'm sure there's video of it in the mall's security office.)
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely vacation ... put your poor bum ankle on an ottoman and enjoy your time away.
Oh Cape Cod...Enjoy your vacation and do try to protect your ankle. Have loads of fun! Bonnie
