As you may have noticed Jackie has not blogged this week. While working on the roof of the storage building Jackie and Will both fell off. Will is banged up and bruised and Jackie broke her sternum and has a few other minor injuries.

Will called us here at the BHM office on Tuesday to let us know about the situation and said Jackie would most likely be released from the hospital Wednesday or Thursday. She will be back to blogging as soon as she feels up to it. However, it may be up to Will to get the canning done this year while she sits and gives him instructions. He will be learning a lot this year!

All of the Backwoods Home family of readers and friends wish her a speedy recovery. — Lisa, Editorial Coordinator
