Just a short post here to let out some stress. I don't think I've had this many ailments since I was a baby:
My back aches from sleeping on hard ground,
I pulled a muscle in my shoulder from chopping wood,
My hands are blistered from building the goat shed and digging holes,
My leg is scraped from a sliding tackle in soccer,
My neck is sunburned from forgetting to apply sunscreen,
My face itches from not shaving for the entire trip,
My tongue is sore and sensitive from eating too many acidic fruits,
Finally a new and far worse addition from this morning... We were driving a friend to the airport in a van and the driver didn't see a speed hump going at a pretty fast speed. My friend sitting opposite me wasn't properly on the seat and came flying towards me. Our heads collided and I ended up far worse, with a deep cut right above my right eye. I am heading to the clinic later on tonight but just hoping that it isn't bad enough to need stitches.
Despite all of that, my spirit is far healthier and happier. Amen to that, goodbye for now.

Hey Tom, we are looking forward to facing the competition of who is the first to recognize you when you walk through the sliding doors next Tuesday afternoon!!!! Don't go shaving off that beard till after you get home, please.
ReplyDeleteTake care and try not to do anymore damage to yourself. Love, Mum, Dad & Charlie.
See if you can get through final week without adding to this list (very much). Can't wait to see photos of your bearded and battle-scarred face though! Love from all in Methlick. Guy
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear of all the damage you've taken. I heard also you needed stitches without any anaesthetics. At least you will have a cool scar and story to tell. However, i hope your trip has been very worth while and that your experiencing a lot. I look forward to hearing about your trip in more detail when you get back. I want to see that beard. Your doing great things over there.
