Yesterday I had a follow up appointment at the hospital. I honestly thought that I would go in and they would say 'Yep...it's all fine...your over reacting about how much it hurts...you need to use it more even thought it hurts...basically get on with it and stop being a baby''. What actually happened was that the Doctor said it was a nasty break, it would be really painful, it would take at least 6 weeks to heal fully and I needed to be signed off of work for 3 WEEKS to rest it!
I nearly fell off my chair when he said that. 3 weeks for a broken toe?!? I couldn't believe what I was hearing and I don't think hubby could either. What on earth am I suppose to do for 3 weeks??? I am only on day 4 of rest and I am already bored out of my brains. I have watched 6 films, watched 1 TV series and written 3 blog posts when all I really want to do is go to work, cook dinner, go to the gym and clean my house. I have never been the type of person to lounge around doing nothing so this is seriously killing me!
So for the next 3 weeks I am housebound (unless someone drives me somewhere as I am not allowed to drive). Pickle is still going to be going to my Mum and my MIL like he does when I am at work so for 3 days out of the 7 I am on my own so need some ideas. What TV series would you recommend? Any X-box games you play? I've got a couple of books I want to read but apart from that I am pretty stuck.
Give me your top tips to combat boreham please!!!!!
