Well, I'm injured again. Every time I get hurt, it's something frick'in stupid. I was leaving the dentist office and had the bike on the center stand. I pushed it forward to release the stand when I did, I didn't notice that it also partially collapsed the kick stand. I threw my leg over the seat and wound up dropping the bike . Trying to save it I pulled my hamstring (pretty darn good). I made it home and the wife saw me limping..... GOOD GRIEF, she turned into Nurse Ratchet, barking orders, mental gymnastics, meds, the entire lot! This happens every time I'm sick, or I get hurt. I suppose it's better than her not caring at all. However, overkill is not great either, and I make a really crappy patient.

Maybe training wheels are in order…

Yea, they make them for Harley's, but I have a BMW

Didn’t Biden fall off his bike too?

OK.... That's a low blow! You're off the Christmas list.

When this happened to me, my wife, an ER nurse, told me to get up and walk it off.

Finster, put on your big boy pants and appreciate someone caring enough to help.

I don't need to be on your Xmas list, either

Call a PT and go get needled. Cuts rehab at least in half. Sooner the better.

Finster you think you got it bad....my wife is a RN. When I had my hip done she turned into the She-Devil...lol. Just remember that they love us... I think...I hope.


Yes Honey....I’ll wash my hands better.... help me! Lol

My admiral is a massage therapist. So when I pull a muscle or something, i just drop some pain killers and pretend nothing happened. Because it only takes her mere minutes to make me feel like I got run over by a bus, straightening me back out.

Nevermind the leg , how's the yuppie bike ?

Parts ain't cheap

Finster, she could be like mine:

1. Bleeding profusely?
Yes…Super glue it
No…put a bandage on it.

2. Bone protruding from the skin?
Yes…push it back in.
No…suck it up

3. Pain?
Yes…take a couple Tylenol
No…then why are you bothering me

You’ll appreciate this when you really hurt yourself.

You're a blessed man

One little scratch on the bottom of the fairing where it can't be seen. Luckily, my leg softened the fall.

I took most of my eyebrow off with a chainsaw in the 8th grade. I walked in the kitchen to show mom she pulled my hand down took a look and said it looks like you need to see the Dr just let me finish this bread. She broke a hoe handle across my shins once because I wasn't moving fast enough according to her. I had to grow up tough. My wife is a kitten compared to her.

Nice !!!!

I can tell you from first hand experience putting ear plugs in when getting chewed on is NOT a good idea. Took 2 weeks of the silent treatment before she enlightened me to her point of view.

Now that is funny right there LL!
Finster, try this;
When the Mrs. goes into wifey mode, start chanting....
Micromanage, micromanage, micromanage, micromanage.
It doesn't work for me, but maybe for you.

Blessings,
Mark

I'm there MChewk. All three daughters are nurses and two of them work acute care trauma and the other works primarily with pulmonary.
YOU TALK ABOUT advice!

Donna sliced her shin this past week on a prop motor (not running) and the girls sprang to action! ALL HANDS ON DECK!
6,789 text messages and 451 messenger live calls later....
Simple 'ol dad (me) knew a few butterflies and some Neosporin did the trick.

Didn't hear much from the 2 boys other than their glad mom's still alive.

Blessings!
