Poor Aub...

So Yesterday started as a normal day. Get up, get the kids to school, go to Weight Watchers.... yes I'm finally trying to loose the "baby weight". Anyway we then stopped at Starbucks and had coffee with a friend then off to the gym. After the gym I thought to myself yes I'm gross and sweaty but you are out of the house and you have Target returns sitting right here that need to be done. So off to Target we go with just enough time to do Target and get home and shower before needing to get the kids. So everything was going fine and dandy till my phone rings. Of course when it rang I had to be in the bathroom with Brock, toilets flushing water running and whose number should come up but the schools. Never a good sign! So while answering the phone and trying to shuttle Brock out of the loud bathroom (he has now turned on the hand dryer) the school nurse informs me that Aubrie has probably broken her finger. So still sweaty and gross we head to the school. (Note to self ... go home and shower right after the gym.) We get to the school and this is what we find. Poor Aubrie sitting in the nurses office with a swollen finger that is all black and blue. Apparently while playing basketball at school the other team tried to pass and she jumped up to try to intercept and well ... her finger got the raw end of the deal. So off to the doctor with a grumpy tired Brock in tow. After squeezing it and wiggling it..Ow! they took X-Rays. They said that there was so much swelling that they couldn't tell if there was a hairline fracture but at least it was not badly broken and that they treat a hairline and a bad sprain the same. With a splint. So short story long...Aubrie hurt her finger and is in a splint. Oh yeah and if I haven't mentioned it enough...take your shower after the gym as I ended up spending my whole day in my gym clothes...Yuck!

Ouch - sorry Aub - hope it heals quickly. Next time get the doc to put your wounded appendage in a cast so you can get out of dishes for a few weeks.

At least you got in to your sweats. Not like some people I know around here. BTW TG should be in your neck of the woods shortly.
