| | Hopefully it's not raining in the kitchen. Then again I worked in a few fish houses in Fl that I thought might float away in a good storm.
Sorry to hear about the fall. My wife tripped and fell on a sidewalk this spring. She was sore for weeks. |

| | UPDATE!!
Tonight at home I was helping dh move some things in the basement and I lost my balance and fell. Our basement floor is very uneven (our house is over 150 years old) and as it turned out I broke my arm in a few places as a result of my fall. There is a clean break at my elbow and four jagged breaks along the rest of my arm towards my wrist. I also broke my thumb, index and middle fingers in the fall. I'm looking at a cast for 16 weeks at this point. I can still work but of course on modified duties.
ouch!! |
