 Volleyball was not so fun this week. All of our experienced players coach or play city league, so that leaves me with adults and kids who aren't so experienced and it's a struggle to just get it over the net. When this happens, I tend to go a little harder and scrappier to make up for it. But alas, it did me in. I went up to hit a wonky set, landing badly on my ankle and in order to save it from breaking, a threw myself hard onto my wrist, breaking that instead. But don't worry, it's the spare. 

friday's news

It hurt like the dickens, but both better after a few days or bracing, ice, meds, and gentle movement. The ER put a huge splint on - so big I couldn't get a shirt on or off. So that came off after a day. And then worse after getting a cast on Friday. 

Rog had to cut my steak when we went to dinner at Texas Roadhouse with Karen and Josh to catch up. And then I spilled my entire cup of take home blackberry lemonade when I tried to put it in the fridge. 

after a few days of recovery

Rog's fam was in town again this week, so we saw them for a bit. Stu the dad has the week off for wood cutting, but a series of snow storms really limited that. But he and Rog did get to harvest a bit of wood, a few rattle snakes, and look around for some elk. 

the chins

Meanwhile, I drove up to UT for a quick trip for the birthday lady, Kelloggius. We had the usual shenanigans including people getting blamed for nothing they did, arguments that an iceberg is a body of water, sealings with 6 big Hutchins and some inlaws with exclusive family pics, BBQ dinner (that Rog loved as leftovers), last minute decor, questionable trivia, games, decorating (that I have to makeup), and plenty of coconut bread. 

plus ones

I hustled back to town to finish some work and hang out with Becky who was here for a funeral. And take a nap.
