If you have been wondering where I have been this week, I have been on bed rest. I did sneek off to the computer for a few minutes yesterday and I am back now. I'm bored with watching television, playing games on phone, and napping! Monday night after urgent care visit for my husband we went to eat at Applebee's. Coming out when I stepped down off the sidewalk, I went down. Remember I tweeked my leg the week before getting out of hubby's truck? Well I went down and was in so much pain I couldn't put any weight on my foot. So we headed to the Emergency Room. I had x-rays done and they came back pretty much inconclusive and they left me with diagnosis of sprained foot. They didn't take my complaint of this is a tendon, muscle or pinched nerve into consideration and told me to follow up with Ortho. They also said I could have a break or fracture, but because of all the swelling they couldn't see much. So our Monday afternoon was spent at Urgent Care and our night was spent at the Emergency Room. I can think of a lot of better ways to spend my time. My husband has had to take over meals and kitchen duty. How has your week been? Good, bad, so-so? Photo Credit: Pixabay, Public Domain

Not your best day! I feel some sympathy as I am nursing a dodgy ankle. Hope you are up and about soon

That does sound very painful. I hope you're able to get around again soon.

I hope you feel better quickly and you've only sprained something. Good luck with it. Our car went into the shop yesterday to have a major repair... There wasn't anything wrong with the new battery or alternator. The mechanic said the engine idle was set too low to recharge the battery so he adjusted it. He said we needed to have new head gaskets put in and thought that was everything it needed. He thought he might have it done by this afternoon but we didn't hear back from him... Hopefully, we'll hear from him on Monday. I wasn't feeling my best today but don't know what's wrong. I fell twice trying to walk to the kitchen so Pretty has been bringing me food when I'm hungry. She actually cooked this evening! She made chicken, mashed potatoes and biscuits.

This week has okay since I had a telephone interview my health doctor and balancing work at home with assisting my relatives doing house cleaning.
