Test over and I got a clean bill of health! So happy to have that behind me -- my Dr. said I could wait 10 years for my next test.

However, on Thursday morning I was using my Olfa circle cutter (which is a wonderful tool) and I was careless and cut my thumb quite badly. Actually, I cut my thumb and my index finger but the index finger isn't too much of a problem -- just sore. My thumb bled and bled and bled -- actually, seemed to just pour blood, until I just said, well, perhaps I should go to ER. Decided not to drive so I called YD and she came over in a panic and took me to ER. No stitches, just a tetanus shot, steri strips (glued on) and a bandage. Boy, did I ever feel dumb!

Now, one has to be smarter than the tools they operate -- right? The circle cutter is wonderful and the cut was entirely MY fault! One cannot be careless when using something that sharp!
Quilters -- may I remind everyone that our wonderful cutters make life easier, but can also make life very difficult when we don't use them wisely. Take care!
