On the mend

Here is the latest on my condition.  Thank you to everyone who has been concerned.  Especially you, Lindsey Hill, who did not even pretend to contain her laughter. :)  (Just as I would do).

Last night Kent said, "You have a beautiful, delicious, purple CANKLE.  Bwahahaha!"  This was as he was taking my sock off for me.

I think he got some pleasure in watching me hobble around because he also commented, "How does my girl who works out EVERY day get so injured from one soccer game?  You used to play everyday without any issues."

I kind of growled under my breath and then had to laugh.  This made me realize two things:

1.  I was an extremely bad ass, tough girl when I was younger   OR
2.  I am a wimpy, delicate old lady.

I like to think it is a touch of both.  But seriously, how is it possible for EVERYTHING on your body to hurt at the same time?  Especially when I felt like I was in really good shape before THE game.  I am not kidding, my shoulder blades have never hurt like this, along with my cankle.  I was even trying to remember doing some different kind of weight training that may have caused this soreness.  No such luck. 

One thing I know to be true:

NO amount of training in a gym is equal to playing a 90 minute game of Co-ed soccer (at least when you're 34 years old).

On a side note, I did not make it to Costco yesterday.  That was wishful thinking, I spent the majority of the day going nuts on the couch with ice. However, the girls and I went today, but thankfully I did NOT need the electric scooter.  Lins,they had 4 of them all lined up at the entrance and they were calling my name, but I braved on.  :)  I almost took a picture for you, but it was pretty busy right at lunch time. 

All right, I do realize my blog has turned into a minor (or major) whining session.  I promise to post some cute pics. of the kids and have only happy thoughts on the next post!  The good news is, I am on the mend!
