munchkin the more you chat here the more I can relate.
I had a ladder slip, split my left kneecap horizontally down the middle (bent the ladder rung, too)
I got the thumb and index finger of my left hand (I’m VERY left handed) in my table saw a few years ago – over 40 stitches to put things back together. Thumb is fine except for scarring, finger, not so good. Doesn’t bend well, aches badly when the temps drop into the 40s due to lack of circulation, no muscle in the last part of finger…. but I still have it. (man, my garage floor, and phone were a mess as I wrapped my hand and called 911)
Too many car accidents to count. Falling, tripping, breaking toes, etc.
Like your post, agree with what you said – hope things just keep getting better for you. Obviously a pretty nice person who has a lot to give.
A Far Side cartoon: Scene is old west. Cowboy holding a smoking gun is standing over a fellow laying dead in the street. Cowboy is asking him “what’s the circumference of the earth” and other questions. Another comes walking up behind him and is saying “Bart, you fool, you can’t shoot first and ask questions later” (or words to that effect)
I LOVE the Far Side! LOVE those cartoons. I’m a fan of Garfield, too – my personality is like that cat’s. I can relate to him.
