It's encouraging to see that not every married couple up and divorces over little disagreements like whether to have a cream sauce or a blush on tonight's pasta, or why one of them shot the other in the ankle with a shotgun.

Mandy Hudson was up at the lake with her husband Jon, taking a walk and enjoying a nice day. Jon, an accountant, was naturally carrying a shotgun just in case any rats or mink showed up and needed to be shot. Jon fell in a rabbit hole and dropped the gun, which hit the ground and closed with enough force that the faulty weapon discharged, shooting his wife in the ankle.

There was a possibility Mandy would lose her foot, but she is recovering, though with more limited mobility. She doesn't hold her husband responsible, however, saying, "If I thought there was any blame, I would not be with him now. We are very happy and close, just as we were before it happened."

No word on what she thinks of the rabbit that dug the hole, however.
