Seemingly Unrelated

Pumpkin Girl finally started piano lessons again.  After searching long and hard (or really just avoiding the issue), I found a very nice homeschool graduate working his way through college. Unfortunately, our music room now looks like this:

We had our very last household goods shipment arrive last week and we’re slowly working our way through it.

I was in the shower when the household goods arrived and saw them for the first time as I came downstairs.  I was happily distracted by all our long awaited storage stuff and, well…I stepped into air.  I did something to my ankle, not a sprain and probably not broken since I could walk on it, but it was definitely painful.  I had to stop wearing my favorite Dansko shoes and be extra careful picking my way through all the snow, lest I reinjure myself.  My ankle hurt for so long that I was starting to wonder if I should go have it x-rayed in my spare time (ha!), and then  I caught a cold.

Not just any cold, but a breathe-through-your-mouth, cough-up-phlegm, and update-your-will, kind of cold.  At the end of the last two days I was completely. wiped. out.  I went to bed hours early.  And lo and behold, I woke up this morning with my ankle feeling almost completely better.  Full range of motion, no more stabbing pains.  I guess it just needed a rest.

So feeling able to walk again, we went to the mall and I got my hair cut.  I came home and immediately had Philip take a picture.   It doesn’t really show off the cut, but pretend it does and tell me it’s cute.

In review:

Music room full of boxes
I fell down the stairs
I caught the mother of all colds and took to my bed
Rest made my ankle feel better
Better ankle meant a trip to the mall
I got a haircut
Comments are required requested optional but encouraged on how cute I look.
Thus, my story of seemingly unrelated events comes to an end.

More Mac and Cheese, please!

Your hair looks fabulous! Glad you are feeling better. You have to teach me how you do that typing with the crossed out words.

Ooo, no fun to get sick AND hurt your ankle. I like your new haircut, and I wish my hair was even half as pretty as yours!

When I saw the first picture of you I thought, “Wow! Lorri’s hair is getting so long.” To be followed swiftly with, “Oh, how cute is that hair cut!” The cute doesn’t end with the hair though. I love your new coat, and the scarf. . .matching and everything. . .you must be becoming a true snow dweller.
Glad to hear you are feeling better. Good luck with the boxes.

Very cute! Nothing like a new hair cut to lift the spirits.
