In days of yore...

I sliced my thumb, right across the thumb and into the nail. What a great emergency room we have! The male nurse talked my down from my queasiness! The new intern put glue on it, and wrapped it up for me. It still hurts like stink. I cannot complain, as it was totally self-inflicted, but I did not realize how much I used my left thumb until now!

Then the kids visited, for a sleepover. We had some fun. Annabelle insisted on visiting with JL, who is NOT a cat person! I shooed her away after the photo!

Dress up, circa 1964
 Isabelle was wearing the yellow dress I'd bought for Josie, a few years ago, for only $2 at the Shabby Shack. We've always had a dress up box, for my kids, and when I was a kid!
I am the one wearing the wedding veil!



Josee's freckles make a happy face. Mommy put marker dots so I could see them!


 The cats were dreadfully tired. Under the tree a chipmunk was yelling at Daisy who was having a snoozze. Chippie was in the drain spout for the house. Dorah konked out on the deck.
 

They are bring a deermouse a day in to play with.



We found some tree frogs in the Hops vine. THen grampa moved the chairs, and found two there. The girls loved them!

Thumbs are very useful, hold it high, take some meds, and if it was done to the bone, will be SOOOO sore!! Rest up.

I did it in the kitchen!!!! So silly. Met some lovely staff in the ER, and some crazy people in the waiting room! xo

It happens, and if it happens in Canada, that's better,as you get the optimal treatment. I'm sure your family's support has somehow alleviated the pain. Feel well soon!

Funny, I slashed a finger the other day as well. My mother-in-law used to shutter when she saw me pick up a knife. My daughter used to keep a daily tally -- cuts and burns while I prepared dinner each evening.

They glue us back together now? Good thing: I think I have been becoming unglued lately.
