Recovery Break

If you haven't seen my Facebook update, I'm in the hospital. I slipped in the mud and dislocated my ankle and broke my tibia and fibula in 3 places. I had surgery yesterday to insert plates and screws. Thankfully that went well. But I am still in a lot of pain. I am glad I have some pain because that means that I didn't damage my nerves. I just hope and pray it lessens soon.

I will be taking at least this week(through 2/17) off to focus on recovery and physical therapy.I may need longer than a week; I'll just have to wait and see how I feel.  No other posts-including the link up-will be made during this time. I have extended the dates available on Homemaking Link Up #28. So feel free to add more posts to last Friday's. I will choose one entry to feature whenever I get to feeling better 

I will be on bed rest for 3 weeks! I will have plenty of time to blog and fold laundry since that's the only "chore" I'll be able to do. I hate that I won't be able to get up and wash dishes, sweep, and scrub my counters. I enjoy taking care of my house. Thankfully my wonderful mother-in-law is flying out today to help us out during my recovery! 
Thank you to everyone who prayed for me! I would appreciate prayers for a quick, full recovery without too much pain. 
Thank you so much for stopping by! 
I would love for you to join us on Facebook, Twitter, or our email list!

    Oh no! So sorry to hear this. Try to "enjoy" the time you have to "rest". What a wonderful mother-in-law you have to fly out and help you all out.
    I hope you have a speedy recovery.

      Thanks! She is wonderful! :) I enjoyed my rest for about the first day. Now I'm so ready to get up and wash dishes or scrub the bathroom. I have got to fold some laundry, so at least I get to do some housework!
