Aw, thanks so much, you guys! Yes, I am on again. Got the staples out today on the ankle, but it was a really bad break and will take quite awhile to heal to where I can take care of the chickens again. I'm still very tired from no real sleep the last two weeks so bear with me while I get my "steam" back.
I really do feel for you.... fell down the stairs once and sprained my ankle so badly I was off my feet for two months, along with tearing every ligament in my calf. I hope you manage to stave off the cabin fever I am sure you are feeling.
