my index finger boo-boo

In Reply to: Caught my index finger in the - Close one
My son (26) has 2 sweet pet rats. I decided to get him a couple more for his birthday (it's the closest I'll come to grandchildren lol).
I stuck my hand in the cage (forgetting they were not my GOOD grandchildren) and one bit my index finger. It bled for hours and throbbed and ached for days. Working was horrible. Band-Aid made it worse because I couldn't feel the keys.
It is still kind of sore and this is going on a couple weeks now.
Don't worry about medically. I'm up-to-date on tetanus, etc., and I haven't died yet...
Didn't mean to laugh, but visualizing your DH cracked me up.
Feel better!!

Caught my index finger in the
front door storm door this afternoon. One shriek wasn't enough, so DH had to hear a second one. I iced it and elevated it and still it throbbed. Feels fine after a hydrocodone though, and I can type! I'm glad I'm off today though so I can rest it. Whew, that was close.
Oh, and when I shrieked, DH was sitting at the computer desk. He tried to get up so fast he banged his ankle, so now he's limping.
We're such clutzes.
97 here (GA) w/ heat index of 103
And I have a ham on! I meant I wanted that ham! I did put it in a counter top GE roaster, which gets just as hot but I have the vent on and can't tell a difference.
at 5 p.m. it was 107 degrees before the heat index where I live in NC

you are nothing more than a finger-pointing
You can see if they will like Vaseline off your finger.
Yup, regular old petroleum jelly. Some animals will lap it up like a treat. Or you can scrape it off your finger onto the roof of the mouth and they can just deal with it, LOL. (The guy who invented it ate a tbsp a day and lived to be about 90).
There are also cat foods that are specially designed for hairball elimination.
This mom is lifting more than one finger
I don't think there is a shortage of love from this mom towards her kids and if a mom really wants her kids to do well in the long term, there comes a time when the hand that folds closed can open back up later to welcome back responsible adult children. Today's young adults are so into themselves and unprepared for the world and let's face it, the world is a pretty scary place to be in today's economy.
Everyone needs to know where the limits are, whether it is behind the wheel of a car and obeying a speed limit or not sure what to do next in life. This mom should not have to make a choice about her own sanity and that of her kids. OR if they put her in that position, they need to realize the parts they played to make it be that way. Putting the 19 on notice that $50/wk is expected plus one chore gives him an opportunity to make a choice. Making sure the gk's are taken care of while the daughter reorganizes herself without making mom shoulder the responsibility of the family is generous. It seems this mom's finger has been bent too far and does not fit the experience you had.
most favorite finger food sm
I am requested to bring this everywhere.
Buy two kielbasas (I use Hillshire original polska, you can use lean but I use the other). Boil in water for about 7 min., do not overboil or will cause to break.
Drain to get ride of grease and cool just a little, then cut into 1/2 to 1 inch rounds (easy) and then simmer in currant jelly (one jar) or if you can't find currant, use grape. Put aside in refrigerator. Before the party, reheat in microwave and get rid of excess jelly, put in wooden toothpicks to serve on platter. People tell me they "can't leave them alone." Big hit.
Are you flipping us off or wagging your finger?
I can't tell. LOL
I hope it was a finger wagging! LOL nm

Don’t care about on his finger, wish he would get another earring
for 1 ear like he had prior to our marriage, thought it was sexy. I have no problems with him not wearing a wedding band, just does not mean that much to me either way, very trusting fellow.
Mine is the prominent bone directly down from the little finger. nm
:
I use finger nail polish remover. It stinks though.

At the base of the finger or at the base of the palm near the wrist? nm
