Am so annoyed with myself.
Managed all the way to school in the snow, ice and slush this am, dropped Bluebelle off, only to twist my ankle 5 mins later. I had stepped aside to let some people pass, after one of them had skidded off of the kerb and I had said "You OK?" They didnt reply, just pushed past, nearly knocking Bashfull Bill over so I put my hand out to save him just as the ice I was treading on gave way and I lost my balance and my ankle twisted over with a crack. I exlaimed "ouch" (cos it bloody hurt), they looked back but didnt stop to help or even ask if I was ok!
BB said "comon Mummy" and started tugging me cos he was getting cold so after a few minutes to recover we carried on our way. Of course progress was then much slower as I was limping and having to stop every now and then and poor love when we got to playschool he was frozen and really upset. They wouldnt let us in till boss arrived at 9:10 (normally doesnt open till 9:15) and he cried the whole 10 mins we were stood there. I tried everything to cheer him or warm him up but by the time we got in he was inconsolable and I had to leave him sobbing his heart out
I rang later and he has settled.
So I have been with it up most of the day and friends have gone to collect kids for me thank goodness as couldnt have done that 3 mile round trip again and didnt fancy digging the car out just to risk the roads! The worse thing is my foot hasnt warmed up all day and I am now a bit concerned as I wonder if the blue is bruising after all but perhaps the circulation has been affected?

God made rainy days so gardeners could get the housework done
Best go and get your ankle checked out. Then when you are back home put your feet up and rest your ankle.
