On injured reserve

Here's a dumb thing:

I doubt this picture will lanch a second career as a hand model.

I was cutting into an onion last night and caught my finger. Really, it's not much more than a paper cut - it's very shallow but unfortunately big enough to need that bandaid on to keep the flap of skin from flapping around. I tried to knit last night but the bandaid just got in the way. So I vegged on the couch and watched a movie. I deserved the break - the last few days have been just too hectic. Don' know if I'll be back in action again tonight or not.

Tuesday night, I was able to combine a couple of shorter cords from the Denise's needle system so that I could continue to limp along on the sweater. I'm sure it's just a matter of time before disaster strikes again, and I'm hoping to find a way to get to a yarn store before Monday. Although it's a moot point with the bandaid right now. I'm feeling like the Fort Collins store is what I'm in the mood for. Their selection is eclectic (I like that word) and the store feels disorganized and for some reason, that gels with my current state of mind.

OUCH! I've done that a few times.

Fort Collins? You're in Colorado! I'm in Brighton! Hi! I'm in Sarah's knitalong, too. Glad to know not all of this group is located way back east or way out west! Bren in Brighton

Glad to see you're back in action. I was beginning to wonder what was up, but figured like me, maybe you just didn't feel like blogging lately. Hope your finger heals quickly. A cut like that can be most annoying.

And about those needles...I could've already had you a pair delivered to you door by now! You should have emailed me with an SOS.
