2 Friday the 13ths = 26 visits to Kaiser

What can I say. Yes, I made a mistake. So what? I say encouraging health and fitness to your family is a good thing. "Modeling behavior" right? The do as I do parental cheese?

I mean, clearly, had I not been looking over my shoulder at the cyclist dashing into the bushes behind me, I might have avoided the crash and my local ER on Friday the 13th. In my defense, I heard "leak" when he said he was going to get a "leaf", but that's just trivial. This was the January Friday the 13th. So I've been pretty celebratory lately what with the release from physical therapy and my leg not looking so elephant-y. Enough to ride my bike again, and suggest more fun exercise to hubby.

Did I not look at the calendar??? Last Friday was the April Friday the 13th. Yup. I encouraged him to fool around with our 9 & 11-year-old. The good news is, when the Sector 9 skateboard (longboard, actually) broke the land-speed record shooting out from under him, it looked like an excellent science fair experiment for next year--

The bad news is, he wasn't so interested in exercise the rest of the day, and his hand looked a little elephant-y. Credit to him, he still helped me lift the lawnmower out of the shed several hours later, but I fear this is what actually broke the wrist.

So only 12 more visits and we'll complete the Everyday Math Kaiser Hospital computation!
