You guys!
Even though I do think he's quite a hottie...California is a bit far for me to find a man!
Thanks for thinking about me!

Fill out an accident report and go to the doctor!

Sorry to go off the subject. But I do think you need to fill out an accident report and go to the doctor like everyone says. What if there are some problems later on that cause you grief? I would rather get it all checked out to be safe than sorry. You know?

(((hugs)))

Shell, if by some chance you broke one of the bones in your hand, you need to immobize the hand for a few days at minumum. An xray would be a good idea. You need this hand for the next 50-60 years, hon!

Thanks Guys...actually it's fine today. Just got a bruise where I broke the blood vessels. I think I just thought of the worst when it happened and when it started to hurt that night. I can barely tell that I even did anything to it now. The swelling is gone and the bruise is barely there.

Thanks again...I think I had just got myself worked up over something minor.

Ok Smartypants!

These aren't very good pic's though...it's just either too dark with out the lights on or too bright with them on!

You can see the bruise more in the first pic, but you can see the veins more in the second.

See? It really isn't that bad!

About a year ago I dropped a pyrex casserole dish on the toe next to the big one (don't ask!) I have no idea how that little toe got singled out but for about a week it looked like I had a plum for a toe. It's been a little crooked looking ever since.
