Andrea + iPhone = pictures

Andrea has an obsession.

It's taking pictures of herself on my phone.

One never knows what they might find.

Love from my class

Pretty much, I hate the cast. It does, however, keep me from doing too much with my hand. Each day it gets a little better. :)

For sure all the names of my students reminds me that it was worth it to get the cast and get back to work!! They even lie and tell me my handwriting looks good.... When I know it looks like 1st grade writing!!

5 more days.

Patient I'm not. But I'm trying.

Boo!

And I was so excited to get the splint off.....

The only way they would let me go back to work was with a cast. :(

At least I can use my fingers a little bit more.

Farewell

Farewell hand splint!!

I hope you are gone for good on Saturday.

Everybody cross your fingers!!

Left handed skills

With my right hand all bandaged up, I had to rely on old leftie.

Not too bad! I won a prize!! :)

accident prone

Jimbo has been playing a few games lately.

He's been trying to stay or get in great shape for his upcoming half marathon.  To do this he's been playing basketball for a couple of hours, twice a week. And playing in a soccer league.

Seriously. I don't know how long his body can hold out. Two twisted ankles. (Now he owns and wears high tops-- even though he still twists the ankles.) And lots and lots of bloodied legs.  ick.  

But last night.  This one was a doozy.  He was playing goalie and took a knee to the head.  He stupidly amazingly drove himself home.  He made it. Lots of blood, a bump, and all the makings of a concussion.  I was about to take him to the ER.... but he insisted he was okay.  Not a great night's sleep for me-- I had to make sure he was still breathing.  He didn't have too bad of a headache today... but some beautiful shades of black and blue appearing every hour.  Yikes.

I say he has to play with a little less fierceness or stop playing.  Every game equals an injury. And seriously.... the Wagner household can only take so much!!  I've about reached my maximum limit for health problems.

a broken hand (Riley)

a black widow spider bite (Andrea)

mono (Kevin)

a reappearance of hives (Jacquie-thankfully it wasn't too bad)

head trauma, twisted ankles, and numerous flesh wounds (Jim)

and

hand surgery (me! this was scheduled.... 'just' a cyst removal)

MARISSA

you are our only hope!!!

(help us obi wan kenobi)

Please stay healthy and strong!

How long will it last?

12 boxes.

TWELVE BOXES of cereal.

I wonder how long it will last?

With Riley in the house?  My guess is 6 days.

Anyone care to guess?  Perhaps the closest will win...

a box of cereal!!
