Hi All,
Thought I would tell you about my day yesterday.  I got up & started getting ready for work and was putting away a few dishes that I had set to dry on a towel the night before.  I thought the towel had nothing more on it & picked it up to put it away & forgot about the paring knife that was on it.  The knife hit & punctured a 1/2 inch cut in my bare foot.  It didn't hurt much, but was bleeding quite badly. Had to go to Urgent Care. I am really lucky because I didn't hit any tendons and only needed 2 stitches.

I got to work today & there were all sorts of plastic knives suspended from the ceiling (one of them bloody) with a sign that said "Watch Out For Falling Knives" I have heard every knife joke or pun ever thought up. Contributed a few myelf!

The only bad thing was I couldn't get to my bear supplies to keep busy. Spent the day watching movies.
I don't feel like the sharpest blade in the drawer!

PS Am still going to the 4th of July parade tomorrow. I am watching...not marching!

Oh, ouch, hun.  bear_sad  Get better soon.  I know how those knife injuries are, having somehow stabbed myself in the hand not long ago, related to a birthday cake and a re-enactment of PSYCHO's shower scene.  We should probably not ever be in a kitchen together.

Mwaa!!!  Take good care!

Ooowww!!!Amy, that sounds so painful.  I think the stitches sound worse to me than the initial injury!  Feel better soon!

Hugs,
Lisa

Hi All,
I am feeling much better & will be up & dancing before you know it. You asked for a picture so here you go. My office.  You can't see all the knives but you get the idea.

Thanks for all the well wishes (even Shane).
Amy
