Well, I gather your sewing machine is the culprit? Hope you aren't in too much pain. OTOH, the ankle will now tell you when a hurricane is approaching.

You are correct, the sewing machine was the culprit.........it's a portable and was in the case on the floor and I tripped over it.

I don't need my ankle to tell me about approaching hurricanes or any other weather problems - my arm does that already and has ever since I dislocated my shoulder and collar bone while shovelling during the February 2003 blizzard.

Unfortunately I am in a great deal of pain, again due to my own clumsiness - I lost my balance last night on the crutches and banged it real hard - I don't have a full cast on it, just what is called a splint, a plaster cast that is only on the back of my leg and semi-supporting the ankle. I really thought I was oging to the orthopedist today to get a real cast put on - no such luck. I'm now sceduled for surgery Friday morning to put a plate in there to fix the damage. What fun.

Oh well - enough of my pity party - let us return to our regularly scheduled pain in the tuchus tropical problem........
