God's looking out for my mental well-being! :)

For those of you who don't know, I injured my foot running. Running was going to be my main source of exercise once we move in with Amanda since I probably won't have a gym membership. Cardiovascular exercise is like an anti-depressant for me. I think, that without exercise in my life, depression would rear its ugly head a lot...The first thing my doctor told me was NO impact exercising. She even told me to be a couch potato - she obviously doesn;t know me!

The pain started 2 weeks ago and kept getting worse, so I went to my Primary Care Doctor last week who ordered an x-ray. The x-ray was negative for a break, but it could still be a stress fracture. She wanted me to see an orthopedic surgeon. I start to stress big time. I'm thinking it's going to take a long time to get the appointment, so I start telling them that my insurance runs out at the end of October, so I really want this taken care of or it won't be! I was like, Lord please let this happen quickly. I don't need anymore stress right now'.

They told me the closest orthopedist who specialized in feet that took my state insurance was in Glendale - which is a haul from my house in Gilbert. Frankly, though, I didn't care as long as they could get me in. I called them today to find out that they had an office in Gilbert AND an opening for TOMORROW at 11:30 AND the office is only a mile from my neighborhood!!! Praise God! I jokingly told the lady at the office that I could walk there.......she said, 'Oh, no you don't!' :)
