At a loose end...

This has got to be one of the most basic posts I have ever written. I'm sitting in the ER waiting to see a Dr. Because I sliced the pad off my left index finger. I know. I haven't felt this silly in a long time. It all started when I was making dinner. Why I chose to wrangle with an unruly tin opener and a tin I will never know so no pictures of the scone topped casserole I was preparing I'm afraid. Instead, the fixings are sitting on the kitchen bench awaiting my return (unless hubby put it in fridge for me while I'm sitting here).

I'm not going to show you a photo of my finger either - just too gross (even with a dressing on it) since it won't stop bleeding. I have this horrid feeling that this might cramp my crafting abilities for a while. I guess that might give me a chance to show you some of the things I've been up to over the past couple of months.

OK. I've just seen the Dr. and had a new dressing put on. Wheeeeeeww it hurts! Basically I sliced the top layer off my finger and some of the next layer in about a 1.5cm  square area. Hello tetanus shot. Hello dressings getting changed for the next couple of weeks - possibly month. Hello showering with a glove...and wearing one for anything else that is wet for the next 4 weeks. Wish me all the best as I change nappies, hang washing, cook and clean folks!

Hope your week is of to a better start! :)

    1. Thanks Jess. My boys are doing their best to look after me. J came up with a plan to have a lunch order today so I didn't have to make him lunch. Win win. ;)

    1. Thanks Jana! It's the next morning and the throbbing has eased. Having a quiet kind of day instead of doing lots of work so the tissue has time to start repairing.
