As many of you know, I'm undergoing a major surgery on my ankle this week that requires tendon grafts, screws, and bone saws. It's a lot more
extensive than I ever expected, but I want it to be fixed right so I can eventually get moving again. As an active person, the past year's limitations have been very difficult. Preparing for surgery has been interesting (and a little bit expensive.) I have been prepping my house for the aftermath, during which I have weeks of bed rest and more weeks of non-weight bearing.
I thought some of you might find it interesting how I have gotten things set up.
My budget is tight, so spending money on things like this as I am preparing for
surgery was a bit stressful. Some of these purchases were expensive, but I felt like they would really help in the long run. Also, they can be put away for later if a family member or I need these items again.
This will be my last post for a little while. My daughter will let you know tomorrow or Friday how things went, but I'm going to take a few days to get a handle on things before I post articles again. The Saturday Shenanigans post will definitely be going on this weekend, but there won't be a Survival Sunday email.

Thank you so much for being my friends. Your love, kindness, and support has meant the world to me for more than a decade.
We can’t be there with our kids 100% of the time. What with work, appointments, and other responsibilities, sometimes our children are home alone.
And sometimes, emergencies strike.
Set their minds at ease, and yours too, with this printable In Case of Emergency bundle just for kids who are on their own. With simple instructions and places for you to write down information for them, they’ll have a guideline which will help them to know what to do.
The bundle contains two printable PDF copies of each of five document: a black and white copy for binders and an eye-catching, colorful copy you can hang on your fridge.
Use these printables
as a starting point to teach your children how to be safe if an emergency strikes when they’re on their own. Anyone can panic in a stressful situation, and having some guidelines written down can help.
