Getting back up to speed

Wow - I think it has been a while since I did an update.

Got a phone call on Friday morning - around 10:30 am - telling me that S had injured himself during the morning recess. The EA told me that his wrist 'bent funny' and thought that I may want to have it looked at.

Off we go to the hospital. We sit... we wait.... we are moved from the waiting room to some chairs in the ER. We sit... we wait... after quite a while the doctor comes over, pokes and prodes, and says, "Let's get that x-rayed." We sit...and wait... then get taken over to the x-ray department. Wait time wasn't as long there.

End result - not broken. Just a big bad sprain. Thankfully. He was nervous about the x-ray - never had to have one before, and he was worried that it was going to hurt. All in all, he was very good about the entire event. Not whiny or anything - which is always a concern when it comes to S.

The A-man was AWESOME at helping hubby over the weekend. They were able to get all of the wood moved from the back yard - now we just need to get the chipper for the excess. He also spent a large portion of his time putting the firewood in to bags, and loading the bags on to the little trailer he will be able to haul down the driveway when he's trying to sell wood. We have told him that he will get 100% of the proceeds as S has not been helping at all. (S is very lazy.)

Had my friend's 40th birthday celebration on Saturday. We had a great time during the photo shoot. (I will post some pictures here when I get the proof CD.) Dinner was interesting...never been to a restaurant that has the choice of elk, bison, caraboo, etc. (I had a chicken stir fry...) Oh, and did I mention the actual 'restaurant' is in a quansom hut? It was quite fun, to tell the truth!

And, another week begins...

so sorry to hear about S' accident, thank goodness it wasn't broken, that would have been awful to be casted at the start of the swimming season.
Your restaurant sounded quite interesting. Where was that located? and why??? didn't you try something more adventuresome than chicken stir fry? That is not like you at all to play it safe + wild meat has soooo much less fat in it than beef I'm sure it would have been fine.
Looking forward to seeing your photos.
