What a party!

Yes, it was a wonderful Midsummer party! Lots of friends, lots of food, delicious strawberries....
There were quizzes and games and dancing, lots of dancing, too much dancing, too wild dancing.....
.....and here is the result of too wild dancing..... Yesterday I spend a lot of hours at the ER, x-rays, doctors and waiting.....but thank god, nothing is broken!!! And I can´t do house work, just stitching :-) .....and it wasn´t my "sewing machine foot"....... Positive thinking!!
(But I feel a little bit sorry for myself, because it hurts and the foot is blue and looks like a balloon. And I can´t walk....Poor me.....)
This little fellow made me feel better. He visited my studio for about half an hour, never seen him berfore, but he was a real cutie. Welcome back!

Here is the evidence; I can use the sewing machine.....but now I have to rest and put my leg up high, it´s even more swollen.....if that´s possible.....
The blocks are made for the 4SQS Summer Block Swap, more about that later....

Take care and be careful when dancing, that´s my tip for today....

Oh you poor thing .... I've injured my ankle before (twisted it and tore the ligaments - ouch) and it's a real nuisance. On the positive side though ... you can still stitch!! :o)
Hugs,
Joy :o)

Poor you!
I feel sorry about you but...think positive, tomorrow you will not have so much pain :) And you can't do home work... ;) And you have the sewing machine foot very well, thank you :0 And if you can't walk...Well enjoy your vacations!

My son did the same to his foot/ankle. Apparently he pulled or tore his tendon - but not by dancing. He was assisting a group of school students play football - he's a teacher.

Hoppsan så det kan gå, dansa kan vara en farlig sysselsättning. Tur det inte var syfoten så att du åtminstone kan gasa på symaskinen. Härliga block du sytt, vill se mer!! Ta det nu lugnt så foten repar på sig snabbt.

Ouch! That has to hurt. Take it easy and rest your foot and leg.

I have a good advice: You must dance regularly !!!!!!
But you had much fun...that`s important!!!

God bedring :-) Men som du skriver selv, du finner jo det positive med å få tid til litt sying.

Sandi sa...

OOPs that looks a bit sore to say the least :( Have you tried a vinegar bandage on it for the swelling??? Old wives recipe but works well for me and my family at times of need :))

Take care and happy sewing and get well soon xx
