A Funny Thing Happened...

A funny thing happened on the way down the trail my hubby, dogs, and I were hiking on Saturday. Last good hike of the summer. A popular hiking trail that even six year olds can get up and down without a problem. It took me a little more effort.

Long story short, broken left leg...really broken to the point that it now has a rod in it. Had to sit on the mountainside staving off panic for a good four hours while waiting for the angels known as search and rescue to come get my broken body.

Surgery, nice new steel rod, and what's looking like 12 weeks on crutches - at least six weeks of which are non weight bearing. Have I mentioned that my company requires me to stand for long periods of time? Have I mentioned that my two biggest trade shows are in the next month? Have I mentioned how utterly helpless I feel right now?

I'm surrounded by great friends and family who's strength I draw from but I'm really worried about how this is going to impact my small little business. But I guess...them's the breaks! (sorry, I couldn't help myself)
