| | Adding to my stitch count... ..ain't this how it always goes...
Last night I added 7 stitches to my stich count and I wasn't even carving!!!
Silly me, I was finishing up the last major item on my honey-do list before the upcoming hibernation, I completed the task and was putting my tools away hoping to get some studio time when I raked my forearm across some glass from a broken chandelier sitting on my workbench, dang it!!! 2 hours, 7 seven stitches, and a tetanus booster shot and I'm back in business even though I didn't make it to the studio.
Now if my better half doesn't realize that the list is complete I'll be hiding in the studio tonight!!!  |

| | Re: Adding to my stitch count... im with you,
i dont mind the cuts nicks stiches, but i do hate the healing up down time, the wiaiting room visit, and all the leaking involved.
play hurt you might get some shop time and some special consideriations like extra desert if you tell her you got hurt doing her honey doos... specally if you can get her feeling guilty

| | Re: Adding to my stitch count... Sorry to hear about your injury!
How did you work through the "honey do list"? My little bride keeps adding more to hers, well mine, every day.
Hope you heal quickly. |

Thomas - love to get special treatment but the wife says naw (I didn't put up enough of a fuss...)

Wrap it in a large bandage and sling ... then head to the studio so next time the honey do list shows up grab your arm and scream in pain !!!!
Pity might get you carving time !

Unfortunately, that probably means you need to clean the workbench.  |

| | Re: Adding to my stitch count... naw its easy.
hide the tablets, and spray WD40 on the list so she cant write on it anymore....
once greased you cant write on paper... |

| | Re: Adding to my stitch count... Tony the broken chandelier was probably part of the honey do list you were probably supposed to put it in the garbage and got busy carving and set it on the work bench. I can bet you probably heard about it from the wife I can just hear it now. "If you had put it in the garbage when I told you to we wouldnt be here at the hospital now". LOL I know that is what I would have got.  Hope you are not feeling too bad and hope it heals up soon.
Take care and be careful

| | Re: Adding to my stitch count... Sorry to hear bout that Tony. Some said that the worse thing is the healing up time. When we were all younger that healin up didn't seem to take much time at all. But when we are older (and I mean Older) it takes forever. Good Luck. Tom H | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
