My Superman !!




Well, well, every Superman has his Kryptonite and for Tshombe it is a non-detachable first base !! Two weeks ago today he slid into first base and injured his hand during a competitive round of softball. (I know he'd want me to tell the whole story so here it is..... he was on first base and the guy batting made a great hit but the shortstop made an even better catch -- so, he was caught running to 2nd base and he didn't want to be the last out so he ran back to first base, slid into it and was SAFE -- saving his team the last out, giving the 3rd baseman the opportunity to run home, and solving world peace !) ..... he played the rest of the game with this injured hand!
So, two weeks later (today)-- he went to see an Orthopaedic. The X-ray showed he broke his hand in two places along the outside metacarpal. ( TWO breaks !!) They took his blood pressure and it was a perfect 117 / 70 !!!
So, for TWO WEEKS my husband has been working 12 hour days with a broken hand, no pain medication, all while having perfect blood pressure --- Wow ! I really have married Superman !!!
