A fall down the stairs and some housekeeping matters

by Jodifur on August 22, 2007

Michael fell down the stairs this weekend. I was out walking the dog. When I got back Doug told me what happened.
I picked Michael up, checked his legs and arms, looked in his eyes, and told him to go run "super fast," a new favorite activity. He was totally fine.
Doug, on the other hand, was a mess. I was unfazed. I don't know if it's because I didn't see it, or because Michael has fallen a zillion times with me. Doug was convinced he had a concussion or a broken something, even though that kid was playing and running around and had totally forgotten that anything had happened.
I'm glad he is such an involved and loving Dad. And I guess one of us has to be over protective. I would have just patted him on the tush and sent him on his way. A fall down the stairs, whatever! So, please go tell him it's okay and it's going to happen a million times more.
Another reason to go butter up Doug, he's doing the first every Jodifur redesign. It finally occurred to me, my husband is a web designer. I can't have the same blog as this guy. I can't say when it is going to be done, because, well, he has a job. That he is getting ready to leave. My blog is not his first priority. But it should be. So go tell him to hurry up, nicely please.
Before the great redesign, I'm trying to update my blog list. If you link to me and I have not listed you please email me, or leave me a comment. I try to link to everyone who links to me, but it's possible I missed you or I don't know.
Also, if you are leaving comments and not getting emails from me, it's because your email is not registered on blogger. Register, and I email you. I'm cool like that.
Enough housekeeping. Go tell Doug sweet nothings. It's time to launch the new site!

The other day my daughter fell and got a huge bump on her forhead while my husband was watching her and he was practically ready to take her to ER and obsessed about it all day and described it to everyone as if she was in a horrific accident…..and yet he makes fun of me for still using a video monitor! Men!

Good luck with the redesign! Can’t wait to see it!

Michael’s so lucky to have such a concerned Dad.

I’ve been lurking for a while (via Amalah). I’ve also recently started my own blog and have linked yours on mine. Feel free to add me if you want on your new website…..

Glad Michael is okay. Sully took a tumble down our stairs a few months back–I was utterly terrified. I think that to this day it was the scariest thing I’ve ever seen. My DH didn’t see it and was like, oh its nothing. So I’m totally guessing it has to do with who sees it, lol. Ordinarily I don’t freak out when Sully gets hurt. Neither of us have been like that really since he started walking around.

Can’t wait to see the new blog layout! :)

I link to you and your probably don’t have a link to me because I just started my blog 4 days ago.

I read Doug’s post about Michael falling down the stairs, sounded like a scary thing to see happen. So glad he’s ok.

Can’t wait to see the redesign. I’m using a template right now, I figure one thing at a time with this whole blogging adventure.
