What a difference a week makes!

So Friday, Jan 22, this was V:

Poor thing was so dehydrated after a 3 day vomitfest that we were sent to Accent Urgent Care to get her some IV fluids. She passed out on my lap while she got a drip, drip, drip.

But by Saturday, January 30, this was V:

Getting pelted in the face by sleet while making a snow angel at 8 a.m. and

attempting to pelt me in the face with snow as we played on her iced over swing set.

On Saturday, January 23, this was T:

Resting in the ER after fracturing his collar bone in 3 places. He managed to go shoulder first over the handle bars of his single speed on the Art Museum trail. Ugh.

But by Saturday, January 30, here he is all smiles:

Hanging out in the snow with the wife and

warming up by the fire with V and some hot cocoa.

I'd like to formally request fewer weeks like Jan 22 and more weeks like Jan 30. Thank you in advance.

Tres- Ouch! Sorry to hear about your collarbone. Did you need surgery? Good luck in recovery.

Were you on a single speed mountain bike? Is this a new ride?

I always thought mountain bikers were better bike handlers. You're hurting the brotherhood.
