Let the healing begin!

On 6/11/2009 I underwent surgery to fix my broken leg. Four hour surgery with seven incisions (2 big, 5 scope holes), seven screws, one plate and a complicated ACL evulsion fracture wire suture repair. I spent 2 nights and 3 days in the hospital. I just got the bill for the hospital only and it was $21,000! Thank goodness we are still on COBRA from having Asher and we have now met our max out of pocket for the year (finally something went our way). I will be completely none weight bearing for 12 weeks which makes for a long summer! I have already started physical therapy and can move much better and feel much better than before the surgery, however. I still suck on crutches, by the way, which makes for some good laughs! :)

Another addition to the farm

I finally got a goat! (Before all of the bad luck hit.) His a Billy Goat/Fainter mix and is five months old. His name is Henry. Jonny let us get Henry to help keep the weeds down on our lot until we get grass and on all the empty lots around us after we do.

It can only get better from here.....

So along with me breaking my leg over Memorial Day weekend, our beloved Saint Bernard, Bruce, died. He died in his sleep from an unknown cause. We really miss him.
