How is everyone this cold, wintery day?

My family lifestyle changed dramatically Tuesday. My truck got stuck at 18th & Peoria. Since we live nearby my wife elected to walk home and left me to extricate the beast. Within two blocks of home she fell and broke her right wrist. Strong Norwegian that she is, she got up, called my son to tell him to come escort her and continued another block where she slipped and broke the other wrist! Never a tear over the pain but blubbered over the frustration of knowing that two men, a 13yr old and her husband are now in control of her destiny. Temporary splints and surgery on Monday. I am now the official cabin boy. Ain't life grand?

Sanded top of driveway yesterday to run and slide down the slope. Very fun until I pull a hammy and limp back inside, where I read about "girl with two broken wrist's" - haven't been out of the house since.

Today I must forage for food.

Anyone else suddenly afraid to step on a piece of ice?

Does she make you wear the official cabin boy uniform?

I bought sand from Sutherlands and had the kids spread it all over the driveway, sidewalk and the street in front of the house. Everything is much easier.

The trash truck made it through the neighborhood this morning. Makes me think it is all going to be back to normal soon.

What? Snow this weekend?

Yeh, I even have to salute her and confess absolute allegiance to her needs and wants. I may end up with RN status within 6 weeks. Snow? C'mon momma nature! I can take your best hit and still mock you!
