New Entry!!!

at 06/16/08 5:33PM

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.

Stay off that leg and get some rest! Love ya, Mama

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."

By the way, typing correctly is hard.

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" ;)

by joes_wife at 12/05/07 3:21PM
Those are pretty big to begin with! Glad to see things are coming along.

by matidwell at 12/06/07 11:35AM
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....

Merry Christmas - I hope your day was great :)

by dragonfly at 12/25/07 8:47PM
The New Year holiday was especially special for me this year!

by mimi_8 at 01/02/08 7:08AM
Hopefully today is the big day! BUT don't try to over do it too soon!!!!

by mimi_8 at 01/08/08 5:41AM
Congratulations! Your bondage is finally over.

by jhagan at 01/08/08 8:07PM
So - can we see some improved typing soon?

by tucksmom at 01/13/08 9:33PM
It's way past time to update everyone on your progress. :)

You have a good wife. It is times like this that we really appreciate our spouses (or when we are apart and need that person to do something for us).

by cdillman23 at 12/03/07 9:02PM
so you got the monitor working after I left?

by tucksmom at 12/03/07 9:26PM
I like your shirt, by the way.

by tucksmom at 12/03/07 9:26PM
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.

by jhagan at 12/03/07 11:47PM
You should try using your feet like a monkey! :)

by joe at 12/03/07 11:55PM
Good for you!! Keep trying and you might invent new ways to do lots of old things.

by jerzgirl at 12/04/07 6:39AM
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.

by batidw at 12/04/07 9:53AM
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!

by all_gods_children at 12/04/07 11:40AM
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.

Are you smarter than a 5th grader?

at 10/16/07 9:24PM

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 can probably tell you before even playing...nope...not smarter...(maybe smarter street wise)

by all_gods_children at 10/16/07 10:07PM
I stand corrected, I am a lot smarter than I thought! hehe..fun! Thanks!

by all_gods_children at 10/16/07 10:15PM
Funny thing, I don't really care but I am smarter than a 3rd grader since I am the one teaching her.
:)

by cdillman23 at 10/17/07 1:41PM
Do you feel any older? Hope you have fun celebrating with your family.

by cdillman23 at 10/25/07 4:02PM
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.

by dragonfly at 10/25/07 6:26PM
I hope you had a nice birthday.

by sarahtidwell at 10/25/07 10:15PM
You're overdue for your monthly update :)

by dragonfly at 11/22/07 9:20PM
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!

by dragonfly at 11/29/07 7:15PM
Get better soon! Hurry! Do it now! (I guess I'm an impatient-get-well-wisher... sorry.)

by jhagan at 11/30/07 1:52PM

Great News!!!

at 10/11/07 6:20PM

I'm alive. My wife thinks I should let ya'll know that fact. I just haven't had any desire to spend much time on the computer hear lately. Buh Bye.

Glad to know you're alive and kicking.

by matidwell at 10/11/07 6:49PM
I'm glad to know that you are still alive.

by sarahtidwell at 10/11/07 9:35PM
Does that mean you are still kicking?

by cdillman23 at 10/12/07 9:17PM
Glad to see you are alive. Thinking o f you.

by tucksmom at 10/13/07 10:24PM
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!
