Stupid School System!!!
 

We had a two hour delay today and it should have been cancelled. Took me 25 minutes longer to get to school the roads were so bad. I was so anxious to get on the highway but when I did it was horrible. I couldn't see any pavement. The highway was snow and ice packed and it was like driving on a road with pot holes all over it. Very dangerous.

When I got home, I stepped out of the bus and fell, my back and hip hit the first step so I am in a lot of pain right now. Hopefully the Tylenol will kick in here in a few minutes. I'm afraid to lie down, afraid I won't be able to get back up.

Called my Mother to let her know she needed to cancel tomorrows Dr. appointment and she said the roads were not that bad, but hasn't been out of her house for 3 days. I told her we can schedule it for next week and she said she wasn't rescheduling. She just wouldn't go at all. So.....I politely told her I needed to go take some Tylenol, hung up and cried.

I'm not having a good day at all.:(

I hope you're okay! Do you get "injury in the line of duty" days off? (We did in NYC).
If you do take them and rest up. That's a terrible way to start your week.

Mom is too funny! Just ignore what she says. She'll go to the doctor.

Anyway, a big hug to you and I hope you feel okay!

{{{Janet}}}
I hope you didn't mess yourself up too bad in you fall.

As for Mom... well she's only hurting herself. If she chooses to act like a toddler at her age there's not squat you can do about it.

Janet - gosh I hope you are ok. That's horrible to start your Monday off w/ stressed out nerves then to physically get hurt on top of that.

Id cry too - so lots of hugs to you. :( I do hope tomorrow is better for you.

I'm sure Mom will come around and realize she's just being silly. Maybe she needs you to Mother her and just tell her this and that. :p Reverse rolls now.

Please hang on climbing outta that bus next time ok?

I very often fall down half the stairs. The first words outta my mouth as I yell is "Im sober ~ Not my fault!!!!". Usually at that point hubby see's what type of shoes Im wearing then gripes at me for that. :p My excuse is Im just in too big of a hurry most the time to slow down and pay attention So....make sure those shoes you are wearing are good and solid so ya don't slip. I already know you're sober, LOL!!!

You're right Sheryl, I'm sober, but I sure as heck wish I wasn't!!! I am hurting so bad. I sure hope it's better by morning. It all happened so fast. I just stepped out of the bus..I thought it was just snow, but it was solid snow/ice and my feet just went out from under me. I hit the back of my hip, very big knot about as round as the size of a cereal bowl and also hit my upper side/back. My shoulder blade is hurting more now, but when I slid, I must have tried grabbing the handrail on my way down. I wanna be drunk so bad right now!

Maybe you should go get checked out by your doctor Janet. It sounds like you hit pretty darn hard. Did you notify work that you fell?

Ever do something and say 'Ohhhh that's gonna leave a mark?'. I say this often and well I think of you now.

Maybe soaking in a hot tub w/ epsom salts will help? Pain killers work too!! :D

Do hope you feel better real soon!

I agree, you should definitely get checked out by a doctor, just to be sure!

I hope you feel better soon. A hot bath sounds like just what you need! *hugs*

Janet try taking alieve that is usually good pain reliever better than Tylenol. I agree with the other ladies go to dr. tomorrow if you are not feeling better.

I am so sorry that you had a bad day, hugs to you and like Sheryl says you have to be the mommy now. Just yes your mom to death and do what you have to do. She has no choices...

Hope your feeling better in the morning..

OhMyGosh Janet, i hope you are ok! I agree with the ladies, you should go see your Dr. Dont leave it, and think "it will be ok" it sounds like you got hurt bad. I also agree with the other ladies that you have to be the mommy now, you have to look after yourself right now, and do what you have to do.

Good luck, and hope you feel better soon!!

How ya feeling this morning Janet?

Janet, hope you are okay!!!! Sometimes I wish we got more snow to make things more exciting in the winter, but the type excitement you are having, I think we're okay missing. Hope you can get round okay today and that you feel much better very, very soon!!

Oh Marilyn, you sure don't want this kind of excitement....lol.

I'm feeling better this morning all. Thank you all for the well wishes. I think it must have scared me a lot too, because yesterday after it happened and this morning I've just been a bit of a crier. Now I feel better.

The only thing sore is my right cheek....LOL Well it's more like if you put your hand between the "you know' and the belly button...and then slide it around to the back (upper cheek region) that is where it hurts and where the knot is. The rest of me seems to be fine.

I did take a nice hot bath and just soaked for quite some time. I really was afraid I wouldn't be able to move this morning...but hey...I'm tougher than I thought I was.

Oh and Mom did call to check on me and apologize so all is well. My feelings were just a little crushed for awhile but all is good.

Janet so happy to hear that you are feeling better. I am sure in a day or two your be back to normal.. :)

Glad to hear your feeling better. Sorry your mom was such a pain in the butt to you (sorry no pun intended) but glad she finally realized she was wrong and apologized to you.
