Broken Stuff

Image
It seems like the last couple weeks is about broken stuff. Angie was rear ended on her way to work. The car is broken. The refrigerator also decided to croak. Trying to catch up, gain back lost ground. We have a new car, very similar to the rudely smashed up car. I had it shipped from Texas. Also have a new a new fridge and backup freezer and fridge. Spring is very sprung. The pollen seems worse that usual this year. In Atlanta we complain about the traffic and the pollen, neither one is really as bad as we say.

My Achilles tendon is much better. I was weaning myself off the crutches Friday. Today I am sore, but so much better. I still have the ankle brace on; the cripple part is gone. The emotional part of the injury was much worse than the physical part. It was the first time I had ever used crutches even though I had had some bad sprains over the years. With the sprains it was a matter of moving slower and deliberately. With the Achilles injury it has been a matter of getting around at all or not and a dependence on crutches. It was about 10 days. I heal fast, but I need to remember better.
