~My Goodies~

I was soooo busy with Jordan and my studio, that I never did post my swap from Pea! Here are my goodies...so very sweet. That lil cat, is just a wee-tiny little thing. I said, how do ya turn arms and legs that tiny? I love my things and Pea had them packaged so nice. She also sent a few choc. kisses, but those are long gone! Thank you Pea, I love all of my goodies.

On another note, I was going to wash dishes last night, well there was this neat jar, from a candle and well, I wanted to keep the jar.....SOooooo, I put it in the palm of my left hand and proceeded to take a butter knife and try to break the wax, away from the jar (my master plan, right?), well, don't ya know, there must have been a weak spot on the jar (or I am just way too strong) the butter knife went right through that jar and broke the jar. Pieces of glass into my finger and cut my middle finger.

I applied pressure right away...not knowing how bad or deep it was. I held it their for a while. I looked at it, nope, still bleeding. I was going to butterfly stitch it with tape....right? Well, ya have to get it to stop bleeding first and then pull the tape, like an "X" tight. Well, I waited and then tried again...there was still a piece of glass in my finger (no wonder why it was throbbing so badly). So, we got the glass out and I wrapped it up. I am not going to get stitches (I am such a die-hard), it did bleed a bit today, when I re-bandaged it, but I will live.

I am so very Thankful it was not worse, Thankful it was not my right hand and again, Thankful that it is my middle finger and not my pointer finger. I will be fine. The moral of this story, Never try to get wax out of a glass candle holder, after you have softened it with hot water, by putting it in the palm of your hand!

I hope you all have a grand day. Toodles, ~Tonya
