MelanieLR Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Hi All, I think I'm going to have to make a BIG stretch to find my 5 today! I not only didn't sleep one wink last night but I just now ran 2 stitches through my left index finger doggone it! I'm in the middle of sewing one of Greg's birthday gifts. He wants a Cleveland Brown's bath robe. So here I am all sleep deprived with no clue as to why I can't sleep, but bored out of my tree. So I figure the only intelligent thing to do is operate machinery on zero sleep. CRUD!!! Now I'm sure I won't get the robe done before his birthday (3/23) because this finger is really going to be hurting, but now I also have to go buy more fabric in order to complete it because I've got blood all over it! CRUD!!! You know, sometimes I really have to wonder about myself. Greg is going to lose his mind when he sees my finger. AWW CRUD!!! I'M SUCH A GOOBER! Ok, I'm going to have to find a reason to laugh about this after it stops throbbing. You think? Talk to you all after I figure out my 5, Melanie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowflake Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 A reason to laugh? Now you know why doctors sew stitches by hand and don't have sewing machines in the ER...I'm SURE a machine would save time, but.... Only two stitches? What part of the robe was your subconscious mind sewing your hand to? Were you going to be goosing him non-stop? You didn't hit the bone (I'm not sure if you ran into any nerves or other important things besides skin...hope it was just a graze and an owie). You bled - you're alive and you bled and felt pain. Sometimes, that is a good thing, a reminder that you are on this side of the grass - and any day you wake up on this side of the grass is a good day. Take care, Melanie. You found your five, and by this evening, you should have more to add...sometimes the perspective is a bit off when trying to focus. P.S. MAN, that had to HURT! Hope you're popping something for "inflammation" to keep the throbbing down... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Lamb Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Melanie, When they took my lung out they used super glue to put me back together & it's held up well.Mabe stitches should be a thing of the past.?? But if you decide to super glue his robe together don't get it on your fingers.Ha Ha. Hope you mend soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karen335 Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Itt, like Frank was super glued together. After my brain surgery. The surgeon used super glue. New technology. At least it doesn't hurt like bandage removal. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
