Today was a bit more nuts than I planned on. Started with an unrealistic request from our HR team. No problem, I do unrealistic things all the time. What really tossed things around was my wife calling at 1 to tell me she was being admitted to the hospital.
She had fallen while working in the yard several days ago. She visited the doc the next day and they said she pulled a muscle in her belly. Rest and it should be fine. She went back today after a rough night and they sent her to the ER. Her numbers are all over the place and a CT scan shows she tore the muscle from her sternum to belly button. There was infection and they decided to keep her over night. So I run to the hospital to see her and get things squared away and then I needed to collect the kids from friends. I then needed to take my daughter to her first Cub Scouts pack meeting (you read that right, girls in Cub Scouts now). Get home from that and do some cleaning because my in laws are flying in tomorrow for my wife’s birthday on Saturday.
I have no idea how the rest of the week will go. Just going to keep things on an even keel if I can.

The captain rarely greats departing passengers if they have a rough landing, at least that’s what I’ve been told. I hope your wife gets bette r that sounds very weird and serious.

Hope your wife is feeling better soon. I’d not worry too much about cleaning - the in-laws will understand.
If I had one piece of advice to give it would be to get the kids’ lunches/stuff ready to go before you call it a night. It always ends up a gongshow if you leave it to the morning, even if you get up early. Plus it drops the stress level down in the morning for everyone.

D ang, that is some hard core yard work... positive thoughts to you. (A night of free jello and antibiotics can’t hurt.)

Crunch time like this is when families have their finest hour. Here’s hoping she gets this taken care of fully and you all have stories to tell for years to come.

I hope she’s feeling better soon! Good luck with the rest of the chaos. I’d personally skip the cleaning but I’m not the best influence.

It will all work out. But hey, what is with that T ricycle Gear on that 747????
Is this a discount air line? Because don’t they come with 4 main gear and one steering gear like below ?

It was a Virgin flight from a few years ago. Outboard main got stuck. The big bounce was them trying to knock it free.

Watching the gif I was wondering why they wouldn’t try to grease the landing since it was short of gear. Then I saw your explanation that they were trying to knock it loose, and seeing how heavily it was listing after it stopped knocking the gear loose suddenly made a lot of sense.

No. Just read about it.
