There are so many things I could blog about (Seven the puppy refuses to toilet train, Amy has molars coming down and is refusing to sleep, my phone cord is playing up causing the phone to ring and disturb my sleepless child, I have eaten too much chocolate, my fast internet won’t be connected until Wednesday, it is Easter, etc etc.)
However, all of those things are boring (unless you really want to hear about puppy poo? No?) so I present you with a photo.
Of my finger.
If you get ill at blood, please look away now.
You know, it doesn’t look nearly as bad in the photo. It hadn’t started to bleed (or hurt) very much at this point (hence me being able to photograph it).
I seem to have removed the side of my finger near my fingernail. My father assures me that he has done the same thing and that the chunk removed will eventually grow back and I won’t have less of a finger.
Nathan was quite rapt that he was able to examine the chunk of finger I cut off that was left on the knife.
However, it looks lots better this evening after I let it dry out. (The bandaids kept sticking and removing them hurt enough to make me nauseous and cry lots. I decided risking bumping it was a better option).
Hopefully it heals nice and fast, because touch typing minus one finger is an awfully hard thing to do.

erm, you’re gonna think i’m weird or something but… there’s something almost pretty about the bright redness of the blood – if you try to think that it’s not blood >_<

I heard that chunk-will-grow-back thing once too, about 11 years ago. Guess what? Still a hole in my leg.

Ouch, you poor honey.
Finger cuts bleed like a mofo. I’ve done or two rippers with a scalpel, and they bleed something wicked.
Get Nathan to give you lots of TLC.
Sending hugs through cyberspace to you.

Holy Fack woman, that looks like it freaking hurts!!!
Good on you for not turning into a blubbering idiot and self medicating….like I would have with a good wine. LOL.
I love that you thought to take pictures of it and then were brave enough to post the gore. Wicked cool!

OMG that is DISGUSTING! But I had to look anyway.
I hope it feels better soon! Glad to know that you could amuse the two most important men in your life 🙂

Yikes, that’s gruesome.
I hope it’s better soon.

I would offer to kiss it better, but vomiting on it probably wouldn’t help AT ALL.
Go and have some chocolate instead.
And slow down!
Tracey’s last blog post..Smiley Saturday
Ouch indeed!
Some things heal better without a band aid,
just try not to get it dirty….
Hope it feels better today,

Myst’s last blog post..Achievements…..or not!
There’s so much blood it’s hard to see which bit is cut….Hope it heals enough soon that touch typing is easy again. I never did learn to type. I’m a three finger hunt and pecker….Washing your hair with that is going to hurt like hell.Dishes too, great excuse to have Nathan do them as often as possible. Nappy changing? Nathan’s job now, for a while anyway.
Oh crap. Does this mean I have to dig up the pictures from the inside of my knee??

Hope it feels better soon
