Some of the best things about not having found a job yet are all of the dance classes I’ve been able to get in (yahoo!). I even found a studio that was similar to my last one…but better technically, and the teachers don’t yell at you. Perks.:) I’ve really enjoyed the classes and the challenge — many of the folks in the day-time classes are better than me, so naturally that makes me want to compete somehow, lol — until last week.
We were doing turns across the floor, and I was felling pretty good, and then I came down from the turns wrong, tried to catch myself….and then I heard and felt a pop, and then came, pain, and then I was on the floor. My knee had gone completely out! It was a horrible feeling, and I sat there in pain for a second. The director and his wife were instantly by my side with his arm around me and the other one gingerly trying to see where on my knee I was injured. Thankfully it had gone back into place, and after 20 minute of ice I could put weight on it… but I think some damage was done.:( The orthopedic doc’ couldn’t take me until this morning…I’m hoping, just hoping that it just needs time off and not surgery! Ugh… prayers appreciated! This would be the worst if I can’t dance anymore or for a long time. It just breaks my heart even thinking about it!
