Double the trouble....

Aaaand the 2nd MRI showed us...


A fracture in the heel! Yes, that's right folkies, yours truly, has a double fracture, oh, and possibly one towards the inside top of my foot right below the ankle... Jolly good! What is happening here?  Honestly, this is just getting ridiculous! (PS) I totally forgot to put my walking cast on tonight and hyped up on 800 IBU and Percocet I was walking around the house BAREFOOT! Mind you I may be 5'9/5'10, but I'm not really a "big" person.  Half a glass of wine= Me on the FLOOR!  One shotgunned beer? Peace out! A glass of champage? Au Revoir!  This is not safe guys! I could've probably done backflips under those drugs and I wouldn't have felt a thing!  Thank G-D I was without company! (Other than Boozy and Mylo, of course! But they won't rat me out... At least I'd hope not!)  If my dad saw that he'd be "P.I.S.E.D".... Someone please name this movie! ... In the comment box I'll be waiting to see who the movieholics are ;) .  So yeah, after today I definitely need a good night sleep!  

Dinner tonight was good... Could've been better but I didn't have much of an appetite.  I had some Turkey Meatloaf (faaave) and some chicken and about a bite of a salad.  What's going on here Hulia?! Get it together girl! HOWEVER, Dessert was increddddible and made my night! I was laying in bed working on my paper and feeling insanely dehydrated!  So to the fridge I went! --er, Crutched! Aaand I pulled out the fruit "wagon" and into it I went.  I sat there eating mounds of Watermelon and Rasberries along with some Honeydew and a little Mango all with my favorite little fork that I've used forever!  I know what makes me happy and fruit -- Makes this girl happy!  So my fruit and I had a lovely little soiree, all while reading about my favorites on WHFOODS Hotlinkable Free Smiley Face from Free Smileys .  If you've never checked out this site before, you MUST!  It's one of my ALL TIME FAVES and it's so much fun to read it WHILE you're consuming said world's healthiest food! I loved this so, and it totally hydrated me AND brought up my spirits! I'm so ready to "hit the hay" but thought I would give y'all an update!  I'll be awaiting a call from my podiatrist in the morning to see if another MRI is in order/ when I get to see him next!  I'm PRAYING that the words "surgery" and "cast" are no where in ear's length.  Let's keep our fingers crossed!!! 
OMG and Tomorrow's THURSDAY!!! Thank the LOOOOORRRDY LORD!Hotlinkable Free Smiley Face from Free Smileys

Julz, I'm so sorry to hear about your foot! I hope it heals very quickly.

So happy you treated yourself to some much deserved fruit though. As a fellow fruitaholic myself, I found myself drooling as you listed off the fruit.

WHFoods rocks!

Get that fruit in! And I don't know what movie that is...

Oh no, poor you!!! So sorry to hear about the fracture. I was on percocet once too and was definitely high on one pill- my friends and family had a great time watching me and I must say it was fairly entertaining to be on them as well. Haha despite the "joys" of percocet, hope you get better soon!!!!

Simple and Divine said...

Hi Julia! I just came across your blog while "googling" myself! I was trying to find out which sites were carrying my DVDs and I just happened to find your blog. :o) I soon realized, while skimming some of your more recent entries, that you had mentioned my classes and my name....that must be why your blog came up when googling my name. ANYWAY... We have all been wondering where you've been and now I know. What a bummer!!! I certainly hope that you didn't hurt yourself during one of my classes. Do your docs think it's an overuse injury? Well, rest up because we miss you and hope to see you back in class soon! email me with an update! seasunz@comcast.net
Take Care,
Seasun

ugh, my family is the same way! Well, my mom is. She is sloooowly coming around though, and will sometimes try *tiny* bites of something I make. She hasn’t been willing to try seitan yet (or veggie burgers, which is the next thing I want her to try), but she did try a soymilk shake the other day and admit that she loved it! My dad will try anything… seriously ANYTHING! He’s even eaten snake before :o/
He travels all around the world, so seitan is the LEAST odd food he’s been asked to sample!

Yeah, let’s go protest at the White House! Road Trip!!! Eh, forget the protesting; let’s just go explore DC—I love that city!
