Rose of Sharon Jewelry

I capped off a nice long weekend by missing the last 2 steps of our spiral staircase. I hit the tile hard with both ankles. My left ankle is severely swollen and sprained. I broke 2 bones in my right ankle and they were jutting out. Arden popped them back in place. Trust me that was no fun. He got a pillow for my head and I had to lay there for a while before we could assess the damage. After a trip to the emergency room and a surgeon, I'm scheduled for repairs today. They will put pins in and then let me go home. Having both ankles out of commission has been a ton of fun. They gave me crutches but since I couldn't put my weight on my "good" foot that was a worthless effort. My solution is to crawl on my hands and knees. Italian tile looks great but is not friendly surface for knees. So enough grumping - the blog will be sitting here lonely for a while until I feel better and can catch up with all those pressing issues like bill paying.
