This is not good. I was stepping off a curb at Target onto a rock and fell. Breaking a bone on the right side of my right foot. Luckily, we hadn't gone in yet and Zach was still in his carseat. I painfully drove to my parent's house and they helped for the rest of the day. Josh is picking up Zach there now. It's the kind of cast you can sign.
I'm out for 8 weeks. 8 WEEKS!!! That's like a year in Mommy time!!! Out until the end of June. That's right, for Zach's 2nd birthday I will be significantly limited. My mom will do the Gym class in the morning with Zach and and starting next week his swim class. We'll work basics like how I can cook out along the way. Good thing I had crutches. I was very thin in college and that meant various foot and ankle issues.
Zach had swim last week. At almost two he has to be in a class with one year olds that are closer to one then two. He was the only one who cried the whole time. The next time he comes he'll bring the shovel and rake he clung to all last summer. I was embaressed last week even as I understood that he was scared and why but I was looking forward to being the one to comfort him into swimming fun. That's not going to happen.
Can you imagine parenting while in a cast? We'll see how much help Grandma and Pop are.
