Well,
Last night I learned a lesson on human frailty. While working around my house, I borrowed a wheel barrel from my neighbor, and instead of walking all the way around the house, I decided to jump the fence. As my wife called to me, "You're not as young as you used to be!" I landed on a brick and CRACK!!! My ankle rolled, I heard cracking and was laying on the ground whispering, "Jesus, help me" over and over.
I crawled to the fence and helped myself up. I immidiately felt as though I might blackout. Corie brought me a chair and some water, and I concentrated on breathing.
I ended up in the emergency room for only 2.5hrs. (Way to go BWMC)
Anyway, one of the bones in my leg chipped. I have an orthopedist apt. on Thursday.
Elevate, Ice, wince.
Thanks for your prayers.

I still think "the ankle bone's connected top the leg bone ...or was" would make a good blog title but yours gives a little more pertinent info. Love you, Dad
BTW, which foot? Gas pedal foot or the foot you kick the dog with?
gear shifting foot. (left)
you gotta be bullcrapping me!
There's a lesson in here somewhere about listening to your wife...maybe someday I'll do the same!
praying for you.
Thanks dude.
