For those of you who want more details, on August 19th (last Wed), I was decorating for my friend Krissie's lovely backyard wedding. I climbed onto the outside of the deck to hang some curtains, but when I went to grab one of the cross supports, it turned out the wood had rotted and I fell 6 feet, onto my right shoulder, breaking my humerous bone (no, it isn't funny!) and bruising myself pretty badly.
The break is too high for a cast, so the doctors estimate I will be in a sling for 2 months, with no heavy lifting for 4 months, which is not easy when I am the mom of two very active little boys. Since I can't even use my left arm very effectively without hurting the broken one, I am not doing a lot! I am grateful to have such great friends and family who love me and who are helping me cope with everything that needs to be done!
And don't complain that I managed to blog this alright with a broken arm--because I actually dictated the whole thing, and had somebody else do all of the actual typing.

I hope the rest of the wedding and reception went less eventful. Good luck in your healings Meggs.
Sad, that is very hard with the two little guys. We are coming to UT this weekend. Can we come see you?
Probably Sunday, if that would work for you guys.
Oh man that stinks. I wish I were closer so I could help out. Hope the recovery goes okay! And when you come back to the blogging world, let us know how the wedding went! That's exciting for Krissy!
So sad Megan! Good luck these next few months... It'll be over before you know it!
TVB!
*Oh, guess who I work with (well, not directly with, but we work at the same company)...? Fratello Durham! Yep. And he's still as awkward as ever. Gotta love it.
