Well, after quite a scare, Will and I are sore, stiff, and slow, but on the mend. Two days ago Will baled and help stack 634 bales of hay. Luckily, David and his girlfriend’s family were on hand to help stack on the wagon and in the barn. Will’s plenty sore today, and so am I. But our fall could have been a whole lot worse and we’re grateful it wasn’t. We hurt, but that’ll pass with time. Thank you so much, my Backwoods Home Family, for all your prayers and good wishes for the both of us.
Yes, we’re taking it “easy,” but still doing. If you don’t, you don’t heal very fast. I’ve learned that from many past experiences. Right now, my “doing” is baby steps, but I’m confident I’ll take bigger ones as I heal up. I’ll do my blog questions tomorrow evening and try to get caught up!
Very glad to hear you two are doing better! You had us all worried. We should have known better- nothing can keep you down! Take it slow, and enjoy the end of summer!
glad you are better. thanks for the response to my question but it could have waited if you weren’t well. take care!
Jackie, Cann’t tell you how happy we are that you’re on the mend. Be careful, we need you more than ever.
Glad to see the two of you up and about!
I am SO GLAD that your are at least up and around! My whole family has been worried about your two! Maybe you’ll start a new fashion trend with that corset! :)
Seriously though, we are SO THANKFUL neither of you were hurt worse!
So glad you’re up and shuffling…. Aside from your corset fashion statement that is a fantastic picture of you two. Maybe you could photo shop out the corset and blow up the photo for your wall….
Great to see you up and around!!! Not sure that the corset look will catch on and I’m sure it’s quite annoying. Maybe it will keep you from going too fast!!! Wishing you a speedy recovery.
Go Jackie go!!! What a great picture. If it weren’t for the corset, nobody would even suspect you two had taken that terrible fall. Here’s hoping and praying for a speedy recovery!
Great to see you up and around!
See all of that good homegrown food helps the body heal much faster!
I am so happy to see you two up and around, and you even looking fashionable in your prairie corset!! Please go slowly and take good care of yourselves!
Thanks for the pic, it’s very comforting to see that you are not confined to bed or chair. Continued prayers going your way for a complete and speedy recovery! How blessed you are to have those wonderful guys to help you! Slow and steady wins the race.
You’ve probably heard this line before…But I feel as if I know you,Jackie…I was concerned about you and Will.. Prayed that you will recover quickly… The smiles in the picture was the best medicine for those of us who love you..Lord bless you and rest…MA
You’ve prabably heard this before…ai feel as if I
Heard about your fall via Mas’ blog. I’m very glad to hear that you’re getting over it.
It’s a very good idea to take things slow and steady; rushing your recovery would only make it take longer.
Take care.
Hi Jackie,
I just heard about the fall. Yikes! I am glad to hear that you are on the mend. You are in my prayers.
Sincerely,
Joe
It is great to see that you are on the mend. And yes, the corset is quite attractive.

Dear Jackie, I just got through reading Mas’s blog and found out about you’re accident. You’re a lucky gal! The Lord was looking out for y’all that day as he does everyday. I just wanted to wish you well and a speedy recovery. I’ve read and enjoyed your articles for a long time and look forward to next issue of Backwoods Home. As a Senior now, I don’t get on my roof anymore, not that I couldn’t, I don’t want to tempt fate as they say! I’ll just get a younger person to give me a hand! You take care!
Sincerely,

Look at you two, & it’s nice to see you up and moving around, slow but sure ~ you are right, moving the best that you can is good medicine…….the corset looks annoying, but I imagine without it would be worse…
Hang in there!
Beth,
Sorry you couldn’t get my book through Amazon, but you can just click on the logo in my blog and have it sent right from Backwoods Home Magazine.
Jackie
Thanks for the update – what a relief! You two look great in that picture, and you’re right back where you’re the happiest – in your beautiful garden. Best wishes for continued healing to both of you.
I’ve been so worried! So glad that you are up and moving. I had terrible thoughts of you confined to a bed. I’ve been checking everyday! Jackie, I tried to buy your book through Amazon and they said that they were not sure when it would be back in stock. Hmmmm, I buy most everything through there so I was dissappointed. Shoppng is so easy through there.
Anyway, so glad you are up and running… well, maybe not running but knowing you pretty soon.
Beth
I am so glad you two are doing better and that you have David and great friends to help. We will continue to keep your family in our prayers as you recover!
Glad to see you two doing so well Jackie and Will! You look so cute together in that pic. Love those sun sugar tomatoes too.
Glad to see you are doing better. Thanks for publishing the pic for us to know how you are.
So good to see you up and out in the garden already. I have sure been thinking about and praying for you guys after your fall. I agree that getting busy as you can as quick as you can helps with healing. Hang in there!!!
