Hi everyone! Thanks @33Mhz for 7th anniversary email. ❤️
@bazbt3 we're still getting it stabilized. Saturday night they splinted it, but Tuesday x-rays showed bones were shifting in the splint, so they put pins through the bones Wednesday. The idea is "6 weeks for bones to heal", but that timer hasn't started.
@33MHz Ouch. I hope you're able to… honestly it's beyond my experience. :/ Are you able to *do* much in this 'immobile' state? How will you stay sane :) given what I imagine is your usual activity level‽
@bazbt3 well I'm veeeery tired. So I sleep a lot. haha. And I actually want to sleep, which is remarkable. Opioids might make me want to do nothing more? But I am pretty content with our lives not being destroyed after all this… family doing OK.
@bazbt3 extended family and church have been helping out a lot, too. This whole week I had a dumpster over at the house, and Dad has been filling it with demolition from the new house, with friends.
@bazbt3 still unemployed! Pretty crazy. I managed to appeal unemployment insurance and so I'm getting a little money every week, which has been much better than nothing…
@bazbt3 last year someone gave me a house down the street. Super old, cute, historic, in terrible shape. I've done a little work just to keep it alive, but it needs a lot more.
@bazbt3 Meanwhile, family of 8 no longer fits in our 3-bedroom house! The house across the street from me went for a very low price, so we jumped at it. Been pulling plaster out of it since May.
