I asked her this afternoon and she said she'd do it. I said I just want you to help when my ankle gives out and she said, "No you sit in the car and I'll go in." Bless her heart. With her 1st child on the way I'm sure I'll come in handy for her on numerous occasions. :D

My friend gave me a wrap she used for her sprained ankle and it feels good just having it elevated and wrapped.

I'll definitely keep this in mind. I see swelling in the week to come trying to get things done that require walking.

Hey, being clumsy is my thing! LOL Sorry to hear about your foot. Don't try to do too much and make it worse.

Gosh Lynne, Sounds like you have a lot on your plate right now - sending you some extra "oomph" and best wishes that things will go smoothly. You are right about the volunteers for the auction, I'm sure there would be others that would offer to help out, especially if they knew about your ankle - you poor thing.

Good luck and have a speedy recovery,

Celie :)

So sorry to hear about your ankle. Do take it easy. It would be really easy to overdo it and hurt it worse.

BTW - Love the Friend help>Sprained my ankle. I'm the coordinated one in the family too. Although

been there, done that and I know how it hurts. It took mine more than 6 months to stop bothering me. I hope it stops pestering you - take care of it and be careful not to do it again. It will be very weak for quite a while.
