Klutz

Sunday night I was watering my flowers.  Bill was out pushing Brody on the swing set and Cole was in the bedroom playing Wii with Megan.  I kicked at the hose, lost my balance and fell backwards off the deck.  When I fell I landed sideways with my left side of my face hitting the patio chair, I slammed into it so hard.  Bill came running over and knew I was badly hurt.  I got up and assessed the situation and we both decided we needed a trip to the emergency room.  I knew something was broke, either my arm, face or both?  

Three hours, cat scan, and x-rays later, it was decided I buggered up my face pretty badly, road rashed the left side of my body,broke my arm, so they sent me home with a temporary cast with orders to call the surgeon.

I went to surgeon on Tuesday and found out that I don't have to have surgery!  That's awesome news!  I did have to leave sporting a new friend for a couple months...

 

Tuesday afternoon we closed on our old house, it's SOLD!  Bill n I dropped the boys off at moms and headed to Hannibal for a Kruger convention.  We had dinner at Fiddlesticks, it was yummy, met with other dealers and the President of the company and had a few drinks, then we went back to the room for some sleep!  Wednesday morning we got up, had breakfast and checked into the meeting.  We took a break for lunch, which the company provided and then finished off the afternoon with meetings.  Kruger is such an awesome company, they paid for it ALL!  We spent $10.02 on water guns for the boys and a jug for my mom to take golfing!  Bill and I had a really nice time together and had such a loving talk on the way home.  I love that man more and more each day, I am so blessed to have him walking by my side in life!  Leaving the cool hotel was such a shock...

We picked up the boys from Jennys and headed back to the farm for some family time together!  They were happy to see us, but even happier to get naked and play in the sprinkler!  Oh the joys of childhood!!!

We had a lovely evening!  We went to Carthage to move the garage sale poles & ladders to Jennys for their sale today. Then we swung by Jeremy & Cassies for a few minutes & the kids played.

Home sweet home... there's nothing like ending the day with the ones you love all tucked tight in their beds! 

Today I'm relaxing.  My arm is swollen and sore and I'm trying not to do too much to aggravate it.  I hate pain medicine, so I'm trying not to take it, but sometimes at night I have to, to be able to sleep.  I've enjoyed catching up on my DVR, which is a good thing cause I'm down to 19 hours remaining, and that's not good!  I like to have at least 30-40 hrs left!  I just have soooo much to catch up on. I'm more active than ever, so I don't sit still long enough to watch much tv anymore.  I also turned the leftover pot roast into beef and noodles for our supper tonight.  That, and a couple loads of laundry is about all I got accomplished today.  I'm a lazy old bum today!  Looks like I will be this way for awhile till this arm heals up.
