Broken Wing

Bright-eyes got a new ski boot when she fell on the steps the other day. Here she is at her 'office' adapting to the new lug-weight.

We both went to the doctor's for x-rays. I had one taken for my wrist, which was hurting for a couple of weeks after a Krav Maga class, and she had one for her ankle. Mine finished first, so I was sitting out in the waiting room. This lady asked me if I'd like to take a free hearing test. I said "huh?" She started to repeat it but then noticed me grinning.

So what the heck, I went to the back, they beeped things in my ear and said I had excellent hearing. When I came back out front the lady asked how I did and I told her I passed with flying colors. She said "See, that didn't hurt did it?" I replied, "No, but I haven't told the results to my wife yet." It took her a few seconds, but then she cracked up.

Bright-eyes came out and we both went home, but then she got recalled because they sent the results to Denver and the specialist there saw a fracture. So back in for the boot. She's getting pretty salty with the crutches but we hope to have them off this week in time for her trip to Idaho.
