You broke your ankle and the first book your brain latched on to is A Series of Unfortunate Events. Am I the only one who sees the humor in that? 😂
Not at all!🤣🤣🤣
I broke my leg coming home in a winter storm (Canada). I asked my doctor to do a Vit D level when he was doing routine blood work. Of course it was low. I take Vit D every day now, it was a real wake up call for me. Please take Vit D, it is very important. I hope your recovery is smooth and uneventful.
So sorry about your ankle. Hope you heal up quickly. 🧸🫂
I love how much you're able to laugh during this story ♥️
My ankle started hurting in sympathy at your description and then my carpal tunnel hurt in sympathy. I hope your recovery goes smoothly
To quote a John Lennon song - "Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans." Sorry that in your case, that was a broken ankle. Hope you heal lickety split!
Catching up on some UA-cam after two months of intense readathons and seeing the pictures of that ankle made me realize that my sprain two weeks ago was in fact not that bad. Sending you all the (super late) healing vibes.
😨 Get well soon!!! My top books for June are to read mixed media thrillers, so I have The Alperton Angels, Episode Thirteen, and A Good Girl's Guide to Murder planned.
🩼 I like how varied your TBR is!
hope you have a easy recovery. healing hugs.
2024 is the year of ankle injuries! I, personally, know 3 other people who have broken or severely sprained their ankle. It's going around, I tell ya! You got caught up in the curse!
Sorry for that ordeal! As someone who wiped out on an icy path on my college campus (two weeks after I turned 21, in the middle of a bad Boston winter...as I was telling my friend to watch for the ice) and REALLY broke my arm, I completely relate to the absurdly long wait for help 🙃 In my case, the alcohol I'd consumed is what got me through the 45 minute wait in the snow bank without screaming, but I did laugh at the campus police officer who arrived first because he almost fell on the ice while he was calling an ambulance. I wound up with a ridiculous cast and sling because of how bad the humerus was broken, and then I spent the rest of my semester taking sponge baths and wearing the only pajamas I could physically get into while high on painkillers. But I'd probably take that all over again than injuring a foot or ankle, because at least I could easily walk and get all the snacks and meds I needed without hassling my roommate (who I had only just met) even if I couldn't open things on my own 😅
good call on chaing the boxes that don't work for you! Hope your healing process is going well.
🌦Well! Between flooding and a broken ankle you don't get more signs of a rainy day than that! (Are those bingo squares or tarot cards?!?!) I do hope you stay comfy and give those bones some down time to heal. Nothing makes me more restless than forced inactivity!
As someone with chronic ankle issues (thanks Elhers Danlos!) who has fractured an ankle in the EXACT same fall… OUCH! I also suck at crutches 😂. Rest well and up your protein and calcium intake to expedite healing ❤❤
You poor thing! I hope you heal as fast as possible!! I just picked up the first book in The TJ Klune series as it isn't something I'd normally read; the cover reeled me in. I need to expand my reading experience and thought this might be fun. I've heard of the Lemony series but haven't read any of them. Good thing you organized your shelves before your ankle mishap. ❤😊
ONE DAY I’LL CARRY ON WITH THE RAVEN BOYS I PROMISE!!!
I swear May was the worst, unluckiest month for literally everyone I know myself included. Like what the heck was going on last month!? The universe was out for vengeance 😆
Please rest up and take care of yourself and it looks like you’ve got a fun reading month ahead
😱
Wishing you a speedy recovery! I fell down the stairs on Christmas and fortunately I didn’t break anything, but there was some nasty bruising and my knee is still not quite right. It’s one of those weird experiences where everything goes fast and slow at the same time. But I learned my lesson and “no more socks on the stairs!”
Oh no!!!! 🙃 I hope your ankle heals quickly!
I'm really sorry about your ankle, I hope it heals well. 🦶👣👣👣
I hope your recovery goes smoothly and quickly!
😲☹️😟😬😵💫😵🥺 This was exactly my reaction in order during your ankle story.
Hope your recovery is a smooth one, glad you are back xx
I'm so sorry, hope you start feeling better soon! 🦶
OMG!! I just did this exact thing from the 3rd step only yesterday night!!! I will no longer complain that I landed face first and didn't break my ankle. Damn laminate flooring, slippery socks and fuzzy carpeting! And my gosh you give us a funny tale to boot. Be well!!!! Do not forget to elevate!!!!
I hope you’ll heal quickly and great too
So glad you are back and sorry about your ankle ❤️🩹🚑
I have fractured my foot before. I would recommend getting a knee scooter if you can. It saved me life!
🦶, I'm reading Role Playing by Cathy Yardley... I'm on Team Romance of the Amazing Readathon for June!
I broke my ankle a month ago so I feel your pain!
I've also got Bingo Board 2.0 planned for next month. 😂
Oh friend! 😔 I am so sorry you broke your ankle! I hope your recovery goes smoothly. I did that once and it was a nightmare. I was in college and took my little sister with me to my summer classes to carry my book bag. Lol. 🦶🦶🦶
OMG Lianne no! Literally just screamed that whilst seeing the photo of the bruising. Good lord girl, when you do something, you really put your all into it. I hope you heal up quickly and are able to get some reading in!
🦶🏻 I hope your ankle heals quickly and you feel better
Wishing you a speeding recovery. I am Queen of falling down and up stairs. Taken lots of skin off but never broken anything.
Oh my gosh. I once stopped halfway down the stairs to talk someone and then forgot where I was, thus steppjng out into thin air as if I was at the bottom. Though I was sure I'd broken something I was fortunate. Bad sprain. Wishing you good recovery and good reading.
It’s good to see your face and hear your voice! Life can sure knock us on our collective bums. I’m sending you all the good healing juju your way. Your poor ankle! 😱🦵🏼🦶🏼I can sympathize with the whole crutches deal. They’re nothing but heartless bitches🩼🩼 Glad to know you’re already being fitted for a moon boot. You’ll heal quicker with movement. I’m amazed you even got to read at all. I’m hitting Assassin’s Quest hard, because I‘m trying hard not to be reading up until the discussion time (like last time)😂 Hugs to you, Harry and all the babies!!
Sorry to hear about your ankle - I hope you're not in too much pain now. Fingers crossed that all of your ligaments are in tact, too, and that everything heals up completely and ends up as good as new.
As someone who has both broken my ankle, and on another occasion torn the ligaments in my ankle and the tendons in my knee (0/10, do not recommend that one), I hated those crutches with the burning fire of one thousand suns. They seemed like a special punishment for the clumsy. 💣🩼🩼💥
Oh sweetie so sorry about your ankle that looked beyond painful!! Hope it’s not too bad now! 🦶
🚑🚑🚑 What an awful end to a wonderful day - an ankle incident!!! I hope you aren't in too much pain and that you'll be up and strolling again soon! LOVE your channel!
Oh Jesus! That injury looks nasty! I injured my ankle the day after my birthday in London last year & mine also looked much like that, but it wasn’t broken. I could walk on mine. Injuries are so inconvenient 😂 Thinking of you & sending you healing vibes 💜
So sorry to hear this. I did the same thing in 2019. 😒😑 I literally fell down the steps too. So I totally feel you. You were lucky I had to be operated on - plate and screws. I eventually had them taken out though in August 2020. Get well soon.
I hope you'll have a full and quick recovery. I broke my ankle once but not nearly as thoroughly as you did and it was hell, so I wish you all the best! ❤🦶
😬 Hope your ankle heals quickly and according to schedule! Ankle injuries are the worst.
I'm traveling most of June, so I think my main reading priority is whatever comic books I can download for my flights. I have a goal this summer to get through a big comic series I've been putting off, but I'm going to be pretty busy. So we'll see how that goes!
I am shocked they didn't think you needed surgery! 😮 That is a long healing process you have a head of you. I wish you all the well wishes and good vibes 🌈🌈 I am glad you are able to move around a little with much difficulty. I am halfway through Assassins Quest and very much enjoying it. I am so appreciative of 2 months per book! You are still moving along pretty well and getting a lot of reading done, even if you might not be totally happy with your bingo board progress! So good job on all the reading!
Oh man I’m so sorry to hear about your ankle!! I fell and twisted my ankle recently and even that’s been hard to heal from I can’t imagine the pain you’ve been dealing with. ❤
I broke my ankle in May. So slow to heal. 🦶 Reading the Adventures of Amina Al-Serafí. May want to be a pirate. 😂
Hi Past Lianne. Message from future Lianne: for the anticipated reads video, please list them in publication order. Thanks. Xx
P.S. hope the ankle knits back together and you're frolicking around your library in no time
Just saw the pop up saying you filmed the anticipated releases video before the ankle break (and therefore before this video) but I hope my comment still made you giggle (or at least not roll your eyes too forcefully) at my silly humour xx
🩼 feel better!!
I'm so sorry Lianne, but happy to see you in good spirits. I love how you always try to make light of a very bad situation with your humor. I've just resolved myself to understand that we ADHDers are just clumsy. We do what we got to do to get through and move on. Hope your June plans go better than my May ones did. I read one book last month. 🦶
I'm so sorry to hear about your ankle! Wishing you a speedy recovery and some cozy books to keep you company
Oh noooo! I'm so sorry! The amount of times I've fallen down my stairs is almost comical! I've never broken anything though. Although....knock on wood!😂😂😂
I hope you’re ankle will heal well.
My june tbr is undetermined as i participate in the amazing readathon.
I did finish assassin’s quest. Enjoy your reading.
I can't believe your doctors didn't recommend a knee scooter. People I know that have broken their ankle or foot loved them. Bonus, some have a basket for carrying stuff.
my mum walked in when you showed the most recent bruising and said "OOOHH bless her, hope she's feeling better soon!" and i second that, OUCH
Oh Lianne! I hope your recovery goes well, and the books distracting you are fantastic.
My condolences on the ankle. That’s never fun. May your recovery be swift and smooth.
All the best with your ankle recovery! The way I winced at the description 😬
I've no real priorities for June except to try getting back into fantasy, I've so many piling up. Sounds like you have some excellent reading plans though, I tore through the raven cycle
🩼 I hope you heal quickly. 💜✌🏻
Ouch. Anything mobility related sucks when it gets injured. I'm sorry to hear about the flooding, too. Picking up A Series of Unfortunate Events in a hospital is certainly a vibe, though.🛼
i hope you’re feeling better soon and have an easy and good recovery
May easy healing and excellent reading be yours! 👟
Girl I know what you’re going through. I was leaving the movie theater and I stepped down one step and the 5th metatarsal (the long bones) in my foot just snapped in half and I immediately just fell into a chair and sat there. Bingo idea!: Read three books with lovely spouse Harry!
Days with picky teas should never end badly! They should be **good** days 😭
Poor you. I wish you well
✨
Hugs to you! Hopefully an easy recovery.
I hope your ankle heals well.
Book rec (not sure if you read it yet): How to ADHD by Jessica McCabe. Jessica is also the voice for the audiobook.
She has a wonderful youtube channel with the same name as well!!!
So sorry. 😢 Feel better soon. ❤
Hope you heal well!!
Oh no, feel better soon!
Woow you really ad a series of unfortunate events: fell down, broke an ankle, started a series reread 😅 jokes aside, I hope you feel better soon ❤
Healing wishes sent your way! ❤📚❤️
🙃🙃🙃🙃 please feel better omg your poor ankle
I broke my foot in 2005. Hoping for a speedy recovery
😬 🦶 🦵 🩼 🚑 you don’t do things by halves do you Leanne 😄 glad you’re more yourself now, dealing with a broken ankle along with chronic pain must be a trial! But, you’ll be back on your feet in no time 😊 lots of love ❤
I broke my foot a year and a half ago and the pain really messed with my attention span and i cant tell if my adhd is getting worse or if i have just not recovered
Well, that's a coincidence, I rolled my ankle really bad on Sunday and now I've got a sprain... absolutely hate how achy standing up is, stairs are currently demons
I like how you crutch.
My husband broke his ankle falling down the stairs exactly like you, but this happened way way back in 2001, during our first year of marriage. We had been married for about 10 months by that time!!! He had to have surgery and steel rods to hold all the bone pieces together because it was not a clean break. And to make things even worse, 2 months later he was forced to hop around on his crutches while we packed up our belongings and moved to a new apartment!!! Sadly the ankle never fully recovered and he has walked with a limp ever since!!
Like you, he is also Plus Plus sized as well. He has been told that if he wants to walk correctly he needs to have the bones fused. He has refused this option, because that basically sets the ankle into one position from which it can never move. He would prefer to keep what limited movement range he still has.
I certainly hope that your ankle was a clean break and that it recovers well!!
