Beth said I should make a new entry. After all, that last one was from seven months ago. Well, I don't have much to say. I get on to check my email, the news, and the weather. That is about all I do on this thing. So...I'm a pleobum. I'll get my news about all of you through Beth.
Taylor hopes your foot is feeling ok. and that I want to see you soon. I really really miss you. and umm I want to make sure that you're feeling all right. and Why did the star cross the road? Because it was following his friends. Good night. xoxoxoxo
Here you go...this is what I look like right now. Click the image and I think it will get a little bigger.
Those pins are sticking out of my hand right now. The doctor actually "shot" them in. One goes from the middle of the bone, out the joint end and into the joint. One goes through the thumb bone and into the next finger for support. The last one goes through the joint and into the next finger for support. There wasn't any real surgery on this hand.
That plate on my wrist is holding together the "potato chips" that used to be my bone. The doctor refered to the process as stacking potato chips together. You can see multiple pieces if you look closely. At this visit the replaced the splint on my wrist with one that leaves my elbow free. Yay!
My wife wanted me to let everyone know that she isn't following me around with the camera. But, I'm like a new baby in the house and she has to capture all those special "first moments."
So, who did the typing on this blog because it looks more like your wife than you... (unless you got better at doing the caps, punctuation and spelling in one day).
Cool, your hands are like mini-Frankensteins, except he was all green and you seem to be just white and various shades of grey. Oh, and you are transparent. But besides that...
Hey, Tripp! So glad you are doing okay. Just wanted you to know our family is praying for you! (We are the Roses, AKA "friends of the Crolius family" ;)
Yeah....he's posting blogs! Maybe something good did come out of this accident :) Glad to see you are well enough to keep us updated. Looks like Beth is doing a good job taking care of you! Take it easy mister.
Hi from Pennsylvania, Tripp! Those x-ray pictures are a bit scary! Your hands look like they belong to Mr. Frankenstein or maybe someone who was playing darts with a seamstress....

It's good to see that you are well enought to type! Of course, now that you have revealed that and since everyone knows that you won't be able to do too much else, we are going to be expecting regular updates! Thanks for the pictures. Get well soon.
It looks like you had Beth following you around all day to take pictures. :) Glad you are able to do some things for yourself. It's hard to be totally dependent on others.
Well, I'm sure trying to figure some of the ordinary daily life stuff makes for an interesting day. I pray you continue to improve as the minutes go by!
Glad you were able to get on the computer and type. That was good. Also, I think you have Beth running around everywhere taking pictures. We do enjoy seeing the pictures, though. At least you are learning to do a few things. Congratulations! I know it has to be difficult when you can't do for yourself. I've been there and done that.
So...are you smarter than a 5th grader? Click on the certificate above and go see. Play just like you are on the show. You can use your two cheats but don't use the internet to get your answers.
I will have to go try that. Hope you are doing well. Are you guys coming for lectures? My blog has an awesome link for finding tickets out of Greensboro. I got our roundtrip tickets into St. Augustine (about 3 hrs from Tampa) for under $100.
I can't believe I missed my chance to pick back atcha before your accident. I'm sure I'll get another chance! Hope you get to feeling better real soon!
No worries...I'm sure if there were something wrong, we would find out! I enjoy seeing the family photos on your Lovely's page! Glad you guys have found a really nice place to live!
