I just want to play tennis...

November 16th. It started out like any other Sunday...morning spent at church. Then Jeremy raced home to play two tennis matches to finish his season with flex tennis. The first opponent was a no-show. If only the second opponent would have been a no-show. Long story short, Jeremy went up for an overhead shot and when he landed he heard a loud snap. Not a good sign. His right ankle immediately became swollen. His opponent just so happened to be a physician and advised Jeremy to go to the emergency room since he thought Jeremy's ankle was broken. Jeremy went home instead. After some discussion....Jeremy went to the emergency room. They determined that he had two torn ligaments. No fracture. So Monday was spent visiting the orthopedic surgeon and getting fitted for an aircast.

You can't really drive with an aircast, so I became Jeremy's personal chauffeur for the week. He went back see Dr. Fukuda on the 24th for a check-up. Things weren't looking better, so off to radiology he went. Again, no fracture. Jeremy got downgraded to a hard ankle brace and off we went. About 20 minutes later, Dr. Fukuda called and said she looked at the xrays again and thought there was a fracture after all. So, a CT scan was scheduled for the next day. Luckily, the CT scan showed that there was not a fracture. Fracture? No fracture? Decide already. So, back to the ankle brace for three weeks and then hopefully rehab.

Tennis will just have to wait.

Mistaken Identity

I received the following email today:

Hi Tracy Wood,

My name is Tracy Wood! No, this is not a joke or SPAM. As you can see, my email address is only one letter different from yours. I'm writing to tell you that I have TONS of emails sent to me that were meant for YOU!Since I have not checked this email account since literally 2006, I'm only just finding these "lost" emails today. Sooo, have you experienced anyone saying "I emailed that to you, did you get it?" Now you know why! Well, I'm very sorry for this inconvenience. If you'd like me to forward any messages to you, I'd be happy to. Incidentally, I'm just curious, whereabouts do you live? I'm just outside Washington, DC.
Best, Tracy

I wonder what emails are awaiting me and how she figured out they were meant for me. Our email address is off by one letter, my middle initial. I'm sure there are quite a few variations of my name used in said email address. Should be interesting to read the emails she forwards to me since some of them are from 2006. If you sent me an email and I didn't respond, now you know why! My email address is my first name, middle initial, last name (at) gmail (dot) com. The middle initial is very important, people. :-)

Trip Down Memory Lane

We made a quick trip to Kansas for my Grandma's 80th birthday party. I uploaded pictures to Flickr. I'll provide a narrative later...but for now, check out the pictures here.
