So Here I Sit

I'm back. The plan was, after completing my first 365, was to try a once a week post. Well, I gave that up and decided to wait until the New Year and start up. I have this crazy thing about when things should begin and end. Well, anyway, last week, while hiking and shooting, I slipped and fell, twisting my ankle. My husband help me back down the mountain..which was a 2 mile hike, which took us 2 hours! We went to Urgent Care to get an X-ray. Turns out it was broken! I had to wait a week for swelling to go down and yesterday they did surgery on it to put in a metal plate. Now I have a couple of months to sit and sit and sit. So what better time to restart my 365? I now have plenty of time to post photos and return the comments. By the end of my first year, I felt bad that I was not doing very well with that. Of course, I won't be back out shooting for a while, pretty hard to do with crutches, but I will be posting my favs from the past while, so ignore the dates, it is the best I can do at the moment. :)
Oh, Vicki! Wow, what a story! Welcome back and glad it wasn't worse (and that your camera is okay, lol!)

Bad luck! I always worry when we're on hikes that something like that will happen. I'm glad you had help down. Best of luck in your healing!
