Watch that tailbone!

Saturday my Dad, Hubby & Son went sledding at a local sledding hill. Although it was very icy, they stayed for two & a half hours later, with injuries but very excited to tell us all about it.

On the first run down with the hard plastic slide, Hubby apparently bruised the muscle around his tailbone which spasms every time he sits, stands or bends at a certain angle. If he's lucky, he'll be able okay enough to drive to work otherwise my everyday schedule is about to get very interesting if I need to drive Hubby to work & drop Son off at school. Thankfully, he's going to go to the doctor to get it checked out soon. Somehow though he managed to continue sledding with our large inflatable sled & still had a great time.

My Dad managed to injure himself by wrenching his neck & back but he also continued having fun. Despite all this, Son had a fantastic time being adventurous flinging himself onto the sled down hill. He kept warm the entire time but was more than happy to enjoy some hot chocolate & fried chicken for dinner with the family & my parents. Before bed, we all watched some old Betty Boop movies (which was hilarious as an adult). My Mom was wonderful trying to take care of my Dad (with heat on his neck), Matt (unable to sit or stand without gasping in pain) & then myself who just started getting around without disabling cramps from the D&C. All in all, it was a fun but definitely interesting day.
