On the evening of December 14th, I had an unexpected close encounter with the pavement on my driveway. My toe caught a stump. Wham! I did a face plant on the concrete. When I picked myself up, I had a bloody nose, a chipped tooth, a bloody fat lip, a sprained elbow and what felt like a sprained wrist. I am now wearing a cast for a fractured bone in my left wrist.
The radiologist interpreted the x-ray as “nondisplaced fracture of
triquetrum (cuneiform) bone, left wrist.” I’m including a photo of the offending stump and a photo of the X-ray.
The stump will have to go. It’s the remains of a coyote bush that I took out a couple of years ago, and it has been a tripping hazard ever since.
I won’t be driving for a few weeks, so probably no road trips. We are extending our stay at Mt. Hermon through January while work continues on our house in Albany. I will have plenty to do here since I brought my workstation with my complete digital archive of over 200,000 photos. I am also having fun with a speech-to-text application, Wispr Flow, since I cannot type at the moment.
