My Broken Hubby


So my hyper active husband is now confined to a couch. He pulled his achlies tendon and is out of work untill about January.

He was playing soft ball, caught the ball and stood up to throw it, he said he felt this burning shooting pain and went down. He got help off the field. I went over and he said we needed to go to the ED. The doc did an ultrasound of his leg and confirmed what we knew. Surgery was in the near furture. He was in a walking boot for 2 weeks. Had surgery on the 21st of Oct. Had a cast for 3 weeks, now he's back in the walking boot for 3 weeks before he goes back to see when he can start physical therapy. He's been putting in hours and hours on the computer, it's pretty much the only activity he can stand to do without getting too stir crazy. I'm acutally surpised he let me on the computer tonight! He's actually upstairs playing video games now. I told him when he can walk again I'm getting rid of the computer and TV for like 2 months!
Oh and my friends's husband Chris had a foot injury also so they were the "gimpy twins"! His other friend Chris than sprained his ankle. I've decided he can't play with his friends any more, they all end up hurt!

Still Waiting...


So we've been trying to by a house now for the past 11 weeks. I believe we started this process around Labor Day. It's quite frustrating. Although it's been so long now I sometimes forget we're even in process. I'm only reminded when someone asks or I go into my craft room which is literally half full of empty boxes. I refuse to pack until we know for sure. Good thing, half of the thing I was planning on packing I've needed.

Steamboat















We spent a wonderful week with Mom, Dad, Brian and his adorable girlfriend in steamboat. I won't say it was relaxing, we hardly sat down, bike rides, waterskiing, hiking, you name it we did it.
