OUCHIE!

Doug was rearranging the garage on Friday while wearing flip flops. He slid a metal shelf toward him and right over his toe. He hopped inside trying to get to the bathroom while yelling for me to come downstairs. I was watching I Love Lucy upstairs while going through receipts and paperwork trying to find that $40 and transferring pictures from his laptop to the main computer. Doug called me on my cell phone and said, "Can you come downstairs? I've been calling for you for 5 minutes." I said, "Well, why didn't you come upstairs and get me then?" He said, "I didn't want to bleed all over the house." Me, "OH!! I'll be right down!!" He said he was calling for me for about 5 minutes while bleeding in the sink.


Sorry, the picture below is pretty gross.

Sheesh, what he won't do to get out of doing concrete Saturday morning! He probably should have gone to get stitches, but it's nothing super glue can't take care of. I got his toe all cleaned up and wrapped to stop the bleeding. Then at 9:45pm, after cleaning blood out of the bathroom rug, hall carpet, the hall rug and hosing out the garage mat, I ran to get dinner - it was way to late to start cooking, so it was a good excuse to eat out, plus we're on vacation right?! I don't think we've eaten dinner earlier than 10pm just about every night this week.

We were pretty dirty after working all day and decided to shower after dinner. Doug was on his back on the couch with his foot above his heart and just getting to the stairs his toes started bleeding all over again, so he sat in the shower with his foot up on the tub while I handed him soap and shampoo and showered myself.

What an evening.

Oh, P.S. he said, "I didn't break the mirror!" LOL

ADDED:

Friday morning I had to go to the eye doctor to have my Punctal Plug/Permanent Plug looked at. I thought for sure it has slipped into my tear duct, which is near impossible. My tear duct hurt and was red and swollen. But the doctor told me the plug was missing, but not it's not in my tear duct, it's just gone. The tear duct was red and swollen from eye allergies. He replaced the perm. plug and we headed to buy ammo for Doug's new gun, had some breakfast and then we went home - then Doug hurt his toe.

For those who don't know what the perm. plug is: it's because I have really dry eyes and it helps block tears from draining to help keep moisture in my eyes.
