We had a modified week this week since we had Monday off. So we started on Tuesday and had our make-up day as a "Stomp" party on Saturday. The shack in the back is basically a pergola now, having gotten the sheeting and gravel installed, and we got all of the trellises up for the twin homes! It was definitely a slower week, and I definitely felt inclined to stay late one day to feel like I got anything much done for that day. It's incredible to see the twin homes looking so developed as well! And we got to move more gravel into the houses, yay. We also got to practice some unicycling, Henry did awesome, do another pizza night, and view some amazing sunsets. A monsoon flew by too and left us with a double rainbow! Sadly, I did not get to record much of the Stomp Party, although it was fun to promote and prepare for and help be a part of, but within the first hour or so of my being there, I ended up taking a fall and apparently fracturing my tibia (x-ray photo above). I cannot emphasize how blessed I am though to have everyone I do as my community. I did not feel much pain, and stayed for a while icing, eating some delicious snacks, and making sure the coffee was full!
Lena stayed with me and took me to the clinic, who had only one medical assistant and one doctor. They were incredibly nice, albeit a touch busy, and I got x-rays and a splint before I got back home. I'll write more about it in another article, but I have such gratitude even with such a new and debilitating experience.
