I apologize for my absence for the last few days.

I injured myself working out last Wednesday evening.  I tore 2 of the 3 ligaments in my left ankle — not a recommended activity.  I am once again able to work and walk using my stabilization boot.  Everything takes a bit longer to accomplish and I have to make time for doctor's appointments and physical therapy sessions.  Good thing my holiday planning is well in hand.

So, you used this week without a Christmas countdown to catch up, right?
