Rough Week...

I've had a rough week... well really a rough two days. Last night I was making dinner and the recipe called for a half a stick of butter. Well the butter was frozen so I decided to cut it and just soften the half that I needed. Well the knife slipped and I cut my thumb pretty bad. It sliced half way across my thumb from inside out and even went through the nail.

This first picture is a little blurry because both my hands were shaking when I took it about a half hour after I did it.

This second picture was taken this morning. It's not the best but you can see how deep into the nail it cut... almost cut the top of my thumb off.

We decided it wasn't ER worthy but it required more attention than a bandaid. So we drove to Walgreens and got some liquid and regular bandaids and some gauze. Then we drove to our friends house and Dean gave me a blessing. We got home and bandaged me up and today my thumb has felt a little better. About an hour ago I saw Jag digging in our garden again. As per my usual reaction I went to bang on the window to scare her out of the garden. Except this time my hand went through the window. I broke the glass and I got a couple pretty good gashes.

It was the opposite hand of the injured thumb, so now I am only left with a few good digits. OUCH!
