wow! another broken leg

So it's been 16 years and now I have another broken leg. I didn't have to have surgery which is a good thing, but.... It's alot different 40 vs 24.

40? 24?
3 kids 0 kids
tri-level house stayed at my parents or my apartment: no stairs
husband boyfriend (who has become my husband)
work at school desk job with a computer
laundry, cooking, cleaning, etc who cared if my apartment was messy?
40 year old bones 24 year old healthy bones

Thank God I have so many wonderful people in my life. Mom just finished all our laundry & Gram Vicky made us dinner last night.

Six weeks could be a long time.

ps of course it had to happen the day before the seasons first storm!

too long

So it's been entirely too long. I am finding that there are days that I don't have check my email. Not really a good thing, just can't muster up the care to move over to my computer. This working thing? huh. no really sure about it.

The last 2 weeks I have been EXHAUSTED. Week before last the boys had half days. But I still have to go back and doing crossing guard, and the PTA put on a book fair. Since I am pta president I was there nearly every day until 4, leaving the three boys at home. Something that I hate to do for more than a day. Let alone 5 days.

This week? Normal days, but I was the substitute in the cafeteria. No problem, right? uhhhhh, no. not in the slightest. It is amazing how many people do not enforce manners in their houses. I can tell you what kids had for lunch when they talk. They don't grab napkins, they spill chocolate milk and it goes for 5 feet! (Don't even know how that works!) They talk, and they talk loudly. THey gave me a microphone. It helps cuz otherwise I sound like the wicked witch of the west trying to talk over them.

It was very nice getting my first paycheck last week. I haven't had a real, more than just spending money paycheck in 13 years. I could get used to this. Just means that I have to get used to a few other changes in my life too. We'll see how that goes.
