I looks so happy!

Believe it or not, it's easier to get around in than the less-bulky splint they put me in at the hospital. The inside inflates to support my foot and ankle, so it keeps it elevated and I can touch the boot to the ground. I can eventually walk in it once I feel comfortable. I could not touch that splint to the ground without coming unglued.

I still can't believe it's not broken. I'm icing it again right now, so I took off the boot and looked at it. It looks so messed up. Besides being swollen, everything just looks so out of place to me.

I am glad it was me and not one of the kids, though.

EDIT: Heh... I just now saw this picture:

And thought, "wow, I look miserable." (Click to see it bigger.) I didn't realize I looked like that. lol.

My friend Daniel made me smile today. He saw that one of me on crutches and said "absolutely amazing... you're obviously in pain and feel horrible, but you still look beautiful." I told him thanks, because I felt like GARBAGE in that picture. I hadn't even been able to take a shower because it hurt too much!
