Author Topic: Bad ending to the year. handycat Player Member # 2323 posted 01-01-2020 11:22 AM                     We are in Western Kentucky staying at the Lighthouse Landing. As we were getting out of the car my wife tripped and fell hurting her ankle. We went to the ER as a precautionary measure. I knew we were in trouble when the doctor came in the room with the x-rays and announced he had bad news and worse news. Long story short, she had 2 fractures in one bone in her ankle. She is scheduled for surgery tomorrow morning to place a plate and other hardware associated hardware. Sounds like she may be off her feet for quite a while. I don’t want you guys worrying about me. I will be ok. I was able to get my own coffee this morning. That’s a start. Not sure what I will do about eating. No breakfast and I fear starvation may be setting in. Pray for me.

Get your food delivered! UberEats, Grubhub, and others will bring you whatever your heart desires. I pray that Mrs. Handy heals up and gets well. As she does, you can order up a nice meal on GrubHub and bring it to her in bed to earn some brownie points... -------------------- Tiptree “If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.” Thomas Jefferson Posts: 13628 | From: Terre Haute, IN | Registered: Sep 2000  |  IP: Logged Trey Ball Administrator Member # 332 posted 01-02-2020 03:03 PM                     Sorry to hear. I hope surgery went well. -------------------- Wife's Mad. Told me we never talk anymore. And just last nite while watching super bowl told her 2 or 3 times to get me a coke and popcorn. Also told her not to forget to take out trash in the morning. Ain't that something. Also told me I was too indecisive. Can't figure out what to do about that. One nice thing I guess. She called me a pro crastinator. Don't know what a crastinator is but I guess I'm a good one for her to call me a pro. Gonna wait til tomorrow to look that up though. I love her but somrtimes can't help but thinking I should have told uncle Junior to keep his coon hound pup and stevens double barrel and also his youngest daughter. redbone Posts: 11568 | From: IN, USA | Registered: Dec 1999  |  IP: Logged ukcatfannfl Player Member # 1425 posted 01-02-2020 04:14 PM                     Praying for ur wife Handy - you will figure out the eating part even though I admit without my wife I would be skin and bones if I relied on myself! -------------------- ukcatfannfl Posts: 8771 | From: Inverness, FL | Registered: Jun 2001  |  IP: Logged handycat Player Member # 2323 posted 01-02-2020 08:17 PM                     Surgery went well and they allowed us to drive home this afternoon. Can not put any weight on it for at least two weeks. You know what that means. My wife is really quite the trooper. Me, not so much. I get thinner as I write this. Kind words and prayer mean a lot to me.

The fact you can already fix your own coffee so soon is astonishing. Don’t worry about starving, cooking ain’t that hard..... one loaf bread, bologna, mayo, mustard and you’re good for weeks, or if you want to go “gourmet”, double the mayo, add cheese and tomatoes. Goes real good with coffee. Now if it’s brownies you want, as Tiptree suggested, give me a call. -------------------- "It's amazing what you can accomplish when nobody cares who gets the credit"....Tubby Smith after winning 1998 National Title.
