How much is a third?

I had a full day. In fact the day was so full that by 7 p.m. I was sleeping on the couch. I woke up at ten and went back to sleep and slept all night. Part of my full day was going back to the specialist. I am allowed to put a third of my weight on my foot.  How do you figure out how much you weight and then how do you figure out what a third of that is...on crutches?  So I have a solution...don't. However the doctor said that he needs me walking with a third of my weight on the leg because then when my next cast is a walking cast I will be ready to figure out my next percentage although he seemed to indicate  that I could walk on it. I think walking on it means actually walking on it like normal walking...forget this percentages of weight.
Also today I began scooting around on my walker. I can go faster than ever...well, maybe not faster than ever but faster than slow. I actually baked cupcakes, made homemade chocolate frosting, washed clothes and taught a ukulele lesson...oh and got my hair cut. So today was busier than most even with my limitations. My leg feels it..it is now up in the air on top of a pillow and eventually my toes will quit tingling. But, I did walk today so I am following the doctors orders...and I did determine what I think he means by a third of the weight. When I put my two crutches down I should have my broken leg going down at the same time. Three points supporting the weight of my body so I have distributed the weight in thirds. Not sure if that's right but it's my simple explanation of it.
I walked more tonight; went to the visitation of my dear friend Emma.  I met Emma after they came back from the mission field. We had gone shopping to send them presents for Christmas. Later that spring Emma found a lump and at age 32 was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer.  During the past 8 we have kept in touch ; they went to our cabin, she spoke at our ladies bible  study, she came and rode my horse,,,and then last year she called and told me the cancer was back and would we, Baihley and I, fill the gap in her  daughter life: Grace lived and breathed the desire to be a horse girl.  We took Grace into our lives about Christmas of last year and her horse a couple months later and for the past year have been hand in hand and heart to heart with Emma allowing her to watch Grace ride, show and win on her horse.  We have another daughter now...she has her own bedroom and she stays usually twice a week. It's amazing how God uses little things to fill gaps in all of us. We are no longer empty nesters and Grace has her horse time on the farm.  and I had the honor of loving and being a friend to a special child if God named Emma.
