Today I start the school year. Yeah, I know, ridiculously early. But I was so ready to spend more time outside when spring came this past April… I am determined to finish a month earlier this year, and to have more breaks in the middle, so we’re starting early.
But yesterday I fell down the stairs and sprained my ankle. At first it seemed okay and after a brief icing, I walked on it. But then I sat down to use the computer for half an hour and when I got up it was stiff and painful — I guess as soon as I stopped moving, it had a chance to swell. I couldn’t walk all evening. This morning I can limp around, but Mark insisted that we ask a friend to come over to help so I can keep it elevated. He took the little ones to music class for me. I’m doing Oscar’s lessons now — he’s going through his math facts drill, so I got a minute on the computer.
I’m determined to stick to my school schedule lest I start the year off on the wrong foot. So to speak.
