Nate is recovering nicely and will get his staples out tomorrow. He is going to start working again this week, but may not be driving up the hill as much for a while. His parents came this weekend to take care of him and help with the kids while I was gone on Friday and Saturday to speak with my friend Angie at a women's retreat in Carlsbad.
We met my reconstruction/plastic surgeon on Thursday and are anxious to get things going. I'll probably have my first of the surgeries in another month or two, which will be exciting and maybe I'll even have a good head of hair by then. At least enough for a crew cut anyway.
Tonight I got out our biggest ladder to fix a fire alarm that was beeping. Somehow it managed to fall on top of me. My back was turned and there were no kids around, so I'm not quite sure how this happened. (Phantom cat maybe?) But it hit me on the right side of my back. The same right side of my back that I landed on while trying to rescue Balliver from the neighbor's roof two Christmases ago.
The good news is, I don't think I broke anything. The bad news is ... everything hurts. BUT the other good news is that I still have the muscle relaxants from when I injured it saving a dumb animal. At least this time I was trying to do something smart. Like change the battery in a life-saving device.
Nate and I are such a pair. I'm pretty certain at this rate, Nick and Maddie will be caring for us by the time we reach 50.
