Sooo much pooping

[HennyPenny]

After completing the London Marathon without so much as a blister, yesterday I managed to tear my calf muscle doing PE with my Year 2 class! Serves me right for not wearing my trainers and for not realising that I am far too old to be chasing around without warming up first.

 

Got to go back to the hospital for physio on Tuesday - thank goodness it's half term - hope it gets better soon. In the meantime I've got to sit here all day with my leg on a bag of frozen veg. Bored with daytime TV - anyone got any funny stories to cheer me up? :(

 

Thanks

[Looney]

Ouch sounds painful At least the frozen veg should be cooked by tea time

 

I'm at home doing work (well, I was, honest ) - I started at 6.30am and have just realised it is 1pm, I'm starving and I'm still in my PJs!

 

No funny stories I'm afraid unless someone is about to knock on the door to be greeted by me in pyjama bottoms, oversized white t-shirt and everything else hanging loose (more of a nightmare than a funny story )

 

Hope you feel more cheery soon xx

Our chooks try to come into the house at every opportunity, slipping & sliding on the laminate floor. One made it half-way up the stairs yesterday... it was bed time after alll...

Hope you are feeling better, & that it is a sunny half-term so you can enjoy some sun on your bones while you are resting your poorly calf.

I dont know, the things some of us teachers will do to get off the last day of a half term...

Hope it mends quickly!

[Egluntyne]

Bad luck. Take it easy and I hope it mends quickly.

[Mrs Frugal]

Take it easy and I hope you're soon much better. Typical that it's nearly half term too, isn't it.

[Nicola H]

Hope you feel better soon Henny Penny.................

Thats Sods Law Henny Penny!

 

Hope you feel better soon & its a great excuse to get lots of pampering.

Get someone to cook a nice dinner or order a take out, as your feet are up im sure a willing somone will massage your feet and paint your nails

 

Just when you get a week off you end up spending it housebound

I always get ill just in time for the school holidays too!

Poor you, I know wxactly haw you are feeling, I had 3 months with my foot in the air after having my big toe fused (twice in 2 weeks as the plate had moved and it all had to be done again as an emergance)

[Karen & co.]

As i write we have discovered a new use for our girl Buzz- rice hoover-upper!

3yo has splilled his rice on the floor, so we have brought chook inside & she is merrily eating up all the mess!!!!!!

She has never had rice before, & can't get it down quick enough.

Great use of chicken Jules - they are nearly as effective as dogs at clearing up spills aren't they?

Hope you are up and about again soon!

[Lesley]

You don't need us to cheer you up HP - aren't you married to Richard?

[Kathy C]

I hope you will feel better soon Jules.

 

Year 2 - you're brave! I couldn't cope with the knee highs, I was always afraid of falling over them.

Morecombe and Wise videos got me through when I broke my arm and ribs

Yes, Snowy I am , thanks!

[HennyPenny]

Thanks for all the kind wishes!

Lesley's right, Richard is doing his best to keep me amused and I'm working hard on resting my leg and eating chocolate!

 

He took me to Wales over the weekend which was lovely - well, apart from the times he forgot I needed help to get out of the car....hobble along the road.....crawl up/down stairs etc etc!

[Lesley]

Ooooh! I well remember all that HP - when my leg was till in a full length plaster cast, Carl managed to drive off one day, leaving my crutches leaning against the side of the car

We arrived at a restaurant for a family get-together and I had to lean on Carl and my Dad all the way to our table on the far side

 

......... and Carl used to help me off the back seat of the car so fast sometimes (in the middle of town) that my skirt used to end up around my neck

 

....and he'd help me into the shower and sit me on a plastic chair borrowed from the garden........... but forget to come back for me

 

...... but, I couldn't have managed without him, bless him

 

Glad to hear you're doing well - go easy on the chocolate or you too could end up with an extra 3 stone to lose!

I'm sure I could find you lots of annoying puzzle games online of you want.

Hope its better very soon

OUCH! Total sympathy from someone who's done exactly the same injury running the mothers' race at school. It's all the more embarrassing (not to mention irritating) when you're normally fit and able to get about, isn't it?
