I know I've been M.I.A. for a while, I've been dealing with quite a bit recently. December 7th was my Step-Father's birthday, December 10th was my birthday, and of course Christmas & New Years. I also found a lump in my right breast on December 23rd, and in the process of ruling cancer out on Christmas Eve, was told I possibly have a brain tumor. I had to wait until after Christmas to have my scans, and while the lump was benign, the MRI of my brain was inconclusive. I am currently awaiting test results from the Endocrinologist I was referred to.
Then on January 11th, my mother's dog got underfoot as I was walking down the stairs. I managed to clear two steps and land my full weight on my left foot. My ankle buckled, and immediately swelled horribly. At the ER, I was treated by a doc who seems to think I'm a drug seeker. He ordered x-rays, slapped an ice pack on it, gave me inadequate pain medication, then discharged me. They forgot to splint my ankle and give me crutches, and I was in so much pain I didn't question it. I walked on the ankle for 3 days in agony before seeing my GP on the following Monday. She gave me a gel splint, refilled one of the medications the ER had given me, and gave me a referral to my old Orthopaedic surgeon. I was in so much pain that my mum, concerned I'd truly mangled my ankle, found an orthopaedist closer to home, and with an earlier appointment. I went in and was told I had, in fact, royally screwed my ankle. I was immediately slapped into an Aircast, indefinitely. It's been almost a month, I will be returning to the doc exactly one month post-injury to see if things are healing or if something else needs to be done.
To top everything off, I caught the flu, even though I got the flu shot. Misery is the only word I can use to describe it, but though I'm not quite well, I'm back.
Since today is Super Bowl Sunday, I bring you a team themed mani! Had to use non-indie polish because I needed the right colours. Who am I rooting for? These guys:
Colours I used:
Milani High Speed Fast Dry - White on the Spot
Milani 3D Holographic - 3D
Milani 3D Holographic - Hi-Res
OPI - Little Red Wagon
Sinful Colors - Let's Talk
Sinful Colors - Black on Black
Zoya - Ziv
That's it for now, I will return with more reviews and some exciting news in the next few days!
