I had just hit my drive & went up to the edge of the woods; I stopped the cart & as I jumped out, I stepped on uneven ground & fell. I threw my left hand out to catch myself. I knew I was hurt but wanted to finish.....my arm immediately began to swell so I didn't. I had ice in my beer cooler so my friend I was playing with packed up some ice & put it on my arm. We then set out to find my hubby who was playing on the front 9 with his friends.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>We left the course & went to the ER. After waiting 2.5 hours I was called in to be seen by triage. I was in pain, dirty, tired & ready to find an alternative. We asked & were told it would be several more hours of waiting. We left.........</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>We went to a 'doc in the box' but it was closed on Sundays. I told hubby to just take me home. We went home & got cleaned up, built a splint, took motrin & went to bed. On Monday morning, I called my family doctor & after explaining what happened, they slipped me in that afternoon. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>After x-rays, they sent me to an ortho specialist to get another look......he saw the same thing - 2 breaks. So here I sit with a hot pink cast & the chore of learning to function with one hand...... </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8325381749475315349-4688783401887013650?l=steelaladyssimplelife.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Sheilahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09210871115056027288noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8325381749475315349.post-29580310966312456682009-03-05T04:54:00.000-08:002009-03-05T05:05:31.282-08:00<span style="font-family:lucida grande;">The weather is improving & I am so excited about it! </span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:lucida grande;">I had kind of a busy day planned but quickly my plans have changed.</span> I was planning to drop the dogs off at the Vet & meet a friend for a round of golf. She has called & cancelled so now I will drop the 4 legged babes off, go to the gym then head to a closer course. Wow, the change in plans sounds better for me!<br /><br />Not meeting a friend also allows me to spend some time 'working' today & looking for another 'real job'.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8325381749475315349-2958031096631245668?l=steelaladyssimplelife.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Sheilahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09210871115056027288noreply@blogger.com1
