Janet Has Been Very Lazy!

She has been neglecting our blog.  I finally had a bark or two with her to let my displeasure be known.

While she hasn't been updating our blog, she actually has been very busy.  This is Phil's newest accesory:
Somehow, he managed to hurt his knee so badly he claims can't walk anywhere or do anything.  All day long it's "can you get me this; can you get me that".  It's been going on for more than a week now and Janet, who is as patient and understanding as a person could possibly be is just about at the end of her rope!  We try hard not to envision one crutch wrapped tightly around his neck and the other one shoved.....never mind!  You get the picture!

He has been to see the orthopedic surgeon who said it will take time to heal and has also been to physiotherapy.  The therapist suggested getting a family member to pull down on his leg hard for ten minutes several times a day.  Aside from Noodles and I, the only family member left is Nurse Ratched and even Phil knew better than to go there.

So, he jerry rigged himself an assistant:
Look what our fabulous Mr. Burr brought us -
Janet bundled up a baby size quilt and two bibs to pop into the mail as a gift.
What do you think the chances are that two children in the same family that live in different parts of the country would buy their mother the same Mother's Day card.  Isn't that crazy?
Phil was going to get Janet some flowers, but with his bad leg and all......
See ya' later!
