Counting My Blessings
I knew it was something serious for them to come get me in the middle of serving lunch at school yesterday to take an emergency phone call at my desk. My husband, forgetting he is not invincible, headed off into the woods to cut more firewood to get us through the rest of the winter heating season...alone & not wearing a helmet...on snowshoes. His sister had a funny feeling that she should stick around while her brother was in the woods, Thank God she followed that heeding! A short while later she got a call that he needed some help as a tree had come down on him. He was lucky ~ a gash across his eyebrow that required stitches, a slash along the length of his nose and across his lip. He looks real cute! Today he feels a knot on his head ~ not from the cast iron frying pan this time ;-) and his shoulder is tender. It could have been far more serious because at the time the tree came down he was preparing to start up the chain saw. I shudder to think!

I'm so glad your husband wasn't hurt more than he was! I hope he heals quickly - and that he never goes out alone again to do such dangerous things! My prayers are with you both.
Oh my goodness, I am glad he is okay. Praise God for his protection when we are stupid.lol
Hope he feels better.
I'm so glad he wasn't more seriously hurt. How scary for you to get that phone call but luckily he is going to be okay.
oh my. Glad he's ok! Sounds like something that would happen to me :/
WOW!! That was a close call - so happy he's alright! Sometimes hubby's are just to independent for their own good.
isn't that the strangest thing - instinct moves in mysterious ways! That must have scared you! He'll remember the helmet from now on, I believe...
I am so glad for you all that he is okay! Hopefully he will never do this kind of work by himself again and thank goodness his sister listened to that inner voice.
I am so glad he is not seriously hurt. You all were very lucky to have his sister act on instinct and stay nearby.
Blessings on you all

You know what I love about Twitter? Getting the "breaking" news as soon as it happens...LOL!
Joking aside, I really am glad he wasn't hurt badly. Thank goodness his sister has more sense than he! ;)
Now, no more accidents for either of you for a long, long time, OK?
So glad your hubbies ok!
Oh my!! it could of turned out much worse, Oh, I shudder to think! I am so glad he is okay!
Waiting until his recovery to use that iron frying pan? ;) Thank goodness he's alright!
I'm glad he's ok...
Let's hope he'll have a speedy recovery.
oh my!! thank goodness he's ok!
Thank goodness your husband wasn't seriously hurt. After he has healed from his wounds, maybe you should hit him with the frying pan for putting you through such a frightening ordeal!
