The Up-Side

I just read a friend's blog and found out that her daughter recently broke her foot. It got me to thinking about two years ago, and where I was. I'm feeling for her having to have a cast on her leg in the heat. But, here, in my opinion, is the up-side of wearing a cast:

• You get lots of sympathy.
• You have a great conversation piece.
• People want to write cute things on it.
• You get lots of attention.
• It's okay to move slowly.
• It's okay to lay around.
• If it's your right leg, they don't let you drive.
• I was fortunate enough to have my mother-by-marriage around nearly everyday to help take care of the house, kids and all the transporation.
• Yah, I'd say you get pretty darned spoiled.
  

So, I got to thinking about my current situation (btw, this photo is from a month ago. I'm SOOOO much bigger than this now. I'm huge!). Here's the up-side in my opinion:

• Ummmmmm....wait a minute....

I know there's got to be an up-side. Just a sec. I'll think of something.

Wait! I've got it!....

Something that looks a lot like this'll be the up-side.

Fifty one days and counting.
