That was close…twice

On Sunday, my darling wife decided that the Christmas decorations needed to be put up outside while the weather was nice.  Well, during that job, I was on the hunt for short outdoor electrical cords.  I remembered I was keeping them in the basement so during the scavenging I walked past my so neatly stacked cords of firewood accidentally hitting the wooden brace keeping the end of the piles in an upright position.  It came loose and the wood started coming at me, eventually pinning my shoulder against the corner of a wall.  Of course everyone was outside when it happened so the screaming didn’t help much.  After a couple minutes and shortly after my wife heard me I wriggled out of the pinch I was in. Whew.

Later that night while doing some baking, I was testing the quality of the honey :^) and I got a tickle in my throat, started to cough and the honey accidentally went down the ole wind pipe restricting the airflow into the ole airbags.  Yikes.  That was another couple scary minutes.  My wife was kind enough to say goodnight to me by saying I hope you are breathing in the morning.  Thanks for the vote of confidence.
