Personal: I was a single mom. Two times over. We all survived, despite the fact that I make atrocious decisions. Then, I met a man I didn't deserve. And he loves me so much. And I love him. We lived in sin and bought a house for two years then hired a judge and officially got married(to our great delight and also the delight of our mothers), then a month later he was diagnosed with cancer. Well we survived all that and he's 100% fine now. But, we're really out of shape and really busy with kids and jobs and running just isn't my priority and there's so many other layers to all of it, but I'm running anyway. This is my failure blog now. Just to log that one run a week if I snag it.
Somehow that matters and I want that run recorded. Favorite Blogs: |

| | MRI shows a transverse fracture to the neck of the fibula, a few bone contusions, and some sprains and strains in the knee and ankle. This is good news, nothing surgical. I have a nasty infected wound on my calf, but they are watching that. with the swollen bruised calf they did a venous doppar but all was well--no clots. I will be referred to ortho tomorrow when they recheck and culture the wound. | |

| | I 'm borrowing a minivan I can get in and out of and drive. yay! Went to the downtown Y and had a nice 60 minute core workout. The Shadow helped me out with handing me medicine balls, weights, etc...I see ortho tomorrow. The wound on my calf is ummm aggressive they are going to have to do something about that soon. Cultured it today. | |

good solid hour of core at the Y
Then I went to see the orthopaedist. The fracture is stable. He said weightbearing as tolerated, start with some partial weighbearing and add from there. So I got up and walked and it startled him. It is a slow, limpy, ugly walk but I am done with crutches!! | |

| | 30 minutes of core at the Y, learning a new routine courtesy of the Shadow. Ortho says I can ride an exercise bike when my knee bends enough and if there is absolutely no pain. My knee doesn't bend enough yet..but I am working on that. Better every day. I even limp faster already today. | |

| | solid hour of core and arms at the Y, probably longer. laid on my back and lifted my legs up and down and flexed my calves. Every day is getting better, limp is better, faster and not as bad today. | |
