Done.  My presents aren't wrapped but thankfully purchased.  Not mailed.  No baking not started.  Only the tree is up. And because it is... 

​​​​​​I fell from putting literally the last ornament in the top of the tree.  I broke both legs and cannot weight bear on them, not that the doctors had to tell me that, I mean how can you stand on a fracture. I bit the poor orthopedic resident's head when he was going to get me crutches. I asked if I was to switch legs to steady myself with them.  Just a check in.  I'm getting lots of rest and they put me on oxycodone. Merry Christmas.So there you have it.  Oh hit my elbow head and knees too but all that's fine. And it could have been worse, I know.

Oh no!! I am so sorry. Hugs and prayers for you. I hope you have help and I hope you can some rest. 

wow Sher, don't even know what to say.  i hope your recovery isn't too long and stressful and that in the meantime, you're able to enjoy Christmas.  big hugs to you!

Sher- that’s just horrible!!! So sad to hear that! Praying for your recovery to be quick, and hopefully not too painful!

Oh my goodness, Sharon! I am so sorry to read this. Lots of hugs and wishes for a speedy recovery!

  Wow! Hope you heal quickly!  I'd say he deserved the clapback if he didn't have enough sense when the dr said no weight bearing and it's both your legs!

Oh Sharon!  Wow, I'm so sorry to see that you fell and this happened.  Thankful you didn't hit your head or face.  Goodness, take care and heal quickly.  Hugs for you and glad you have help.

Good grief....you've left me speechless. I sure hope you have a speedy recovery and aren't in any pain

Oh my gosh that's terrible, so sorry! I can't even imagine that.....Prayers for you!

Oh Sher!  Thoughts and prayers for the quickest recovery possible.  Hugs...

Oh but I did Vicki! Lol  just mentioned the fractures.  I have bruise over my left eye, rt elbow, and on the soles of my feet, too. I can't even guess how I did both sides. And they gave me oxycodone for pain, which I decided no more than a half at bedtime if I can't sleep.  And I had the OIP staff saying I must be seen in 5 days but that they have no appts for follow-ups. Yeah, well they can figure that out. Finally got one with the doctor I wanted there on the 31st.  I swear!!

I love our cherries!  Even though I'm in a rough spot, you all made me feel better just giving me sympathy.  I value each of your comments, always 

Oh, I hope you’re getting the very best care, and also hope your recovery will be as pain-free as possible.  Merry Christmas!

Oh no!  Sharon, get your rest and don’t worry about anything. Hopefully you have others who can do what needs to be done.  Try to enjoy Christmas. I wish you a speedy and complete recovery. 

Oh my gosh.. I'm so sorry that happened to you. Be gentle with yourself, I know there is so much holiday pressure but what's important is that you take care of you. Sending prayers your way.
