Man Down


Saturday Tyler left to go surf with his brother Jared. He left at 9:00 a.m. He should be returning around 11:00 a.m. Right? Wrong! Tyler was gone for less than 20 minutes when the phone rang. If Tyler calls me in the middle of a surf, it's never good. Turns out he biffed it pretty bad on a wave and lightly tore his MCL in his left knee. Looks like I will have 8 children instead of 7 for a bit, rats! By the way Tyler, the surf report said waves were 2-3 feet on Saturday, not 20 ft plus. Nice try!

Holy crap, man! I had no idea. Take your time recovering. I promise Stewy and I will handle the accounts side while you're out.

NO!!!!! Ty, so sorry you are hurt... but let's be honest, I am more sorry for Karen. Hurt husbands are quite possibly the hardest thing in the world to deal with.\"/ Don't tell Ty I said that.\"/ No, Ty hope you get well soon... Good luck, Karen!
PS, if you really have unopened bags of Gizzards....you can take them back to the store. You almost made me yack just reading about them! Before we left for Brazil, we took all the unopened food in our cupboards and freezer back to the store.... we got like $400 cash back. They do allow you to return stuff. For my sake alone... no more eating gizzards!\"/ Love ya....get well soon!

So sorry to hear about it! At least the injury occured doing something so fun! Good motivation for a quick recovery...surfing! Get well soon!

Suck! That is so terrible. I agree... worse for you than Tyler. If Tyler is anything like my sweet husband, he will not even be able to turn the pages of a book by himself, even though it is just his knee that is hurt. So good luck to you!

There is NO good news that could come in the middle of a surf session!! That stinks! I have gotten the Emergency Room call a few too many times...Tyler, you and Eric need to hang out and see who gets the most hurt!
Hope that you're feeling better soon...Karen, hang in there...it can't last forever, right??
