Life as always has been busy but uneventful lately... well mostly uneventful.
John likes to go play flag football on Mon and Sat with some guys from church. It is pretty much his favorite time of the week so even though he has come back hurt a couple times I try to be a good wife and go let him play. He bruised a rib pretty bad back in July and couldn't lift anything heavy for several weeks so I wouldn't let him play again for a while. He finally got better and had been playing regularly again. Well about two weeks ago he came home from playing and we were talking about how his game went. After a little bit he says "I wasn't sure if I was going to tell you, and don't freak out but... I hurt my knee pretty bad". Ok well what does that mean exactly?? After icing and wrapping for a couple days it was swollen so I made him to the doctor who referred him to an orthopedic doctor. He ended up having to get an MRI and finally finding out this week that he had torn a ligament and bruised one of his bones. He has been doing some exercises with my leg weights to strengthen the joint again but he won't be playing again for a few weeks much to his dismay.
Last night I had a few girl friends over while John was at the church watching the priesthood session and gorging himself on ice cream at the priesthood ice cream social. It is nice to be able to spend time with friends and I must admit that I ate a ton too because everyone brought over tons of goodies. We had also made homemade cinnamon rolls for breakfast so it was a very unhealthy but yummy day!
We have been trying to get little things done on the house and continue making progress. Also, I am teaching a lab section this semester so I have been a little busier than normal with that. We are trying to get the last bedroom done so that we can bring back all of the furniture for it when we visit my parents at the end of the month.
