My blog is finally working!

I haven't been able to post anything for the whole year of 2013.  I can't give you a reason why but now that it is up and running, I hope to post more.

As most of you know, last year was not a great one to start off with because I had fallen and broke my ankle in 3-4 places.  Spent a week in the hospital and another 3 weeks in rehab.  I tried to have a new puppy but she didn't work out.  I can't say that she was the thing that caused my accident but I was being stubborn as I was told Molly was my dog and I would be the only one taking care of her.

I was exhausted that evening but I was so angry at that statement, I pushed myself to stay up with the puppy.  I did have some light on but I still got walking too fast to sit down, could not stop myself, tripped, fell, and heard the crack.  Molly was given away.  It was very hard to but I was not in a position to now take care of a puppy.
As the year went, discussions about my upcoming birthday were talked about and I wanted to go back to Disney World as it had been at least 20 years.  I had gone to Disneyland while in California but DW is so much bigger with so much to do.
2014 came to be and again I had hopes that this would be the year of being free to do things.  We had planned our trip for Disney, arranged for the hotel, had Frankie taken care of for a few days, and we were ready!
It has not gone according to plan.  I had just seen my orthopedic doctor and he decided to keep in my hardware for at least another 6-12 months.  Well...a week later I started to get a lot of redness and swelling.  I had a spot open up and was bleeding a small amount.  Back to the doctor and he said it might be an infection.  Antibiotics given and the decision to remove all the hardware.  Disney is in question once more because I am not able to walk too long as it is sore and hurts.  Ahhhh!  A decision will be made on Wednesday about whether to go now or delay again.
