Joy,

Look on the bright side - - by the time you get the cast off, the roads should be salt-free!

If you have a cat, this is a great time for bonding! :)

Seriously, though, you have my sympathy - - I broke my foot on my 35th birthday (wow! was it that long ago?) - - not fun! Hope you are better soon.

WAAAHHH!! I can't drive my van now!! Matilda is going to be abandoned = to the driveway!

(end of vanagon content... :-)

I am now the happy owner of two crutches, one big fiberglass splint and = one broken foot bone. It sucks! All sympathy greatly needed!!! Who knew = that I could break my foot, just by being clumsy and tripping on the curb??? Surely not I, especially not before I continued walking another mile and = a half to where I was going! Teach me to figure I should get exercise by walking all around town...

I have at least figured out how to carry a bowl of soup from the kitchen = to the dining room table on crutches without spilling it. And thanks to = global warming I don't have to contend with snow and ice on my crutches. And = thank goodness my Prius doesn't take two feet to drive, and it's my left foot = that I broke!=20

Yeah yeah, I know there are MUCH more serious problems in the world. = But I still want sympathy, please!!!!

Now, should I really send this email, or just quit bitching and hit the delete key??? Oops, there goes the "send" button!

Joy=20
