Dumb "work" injury?
View attachment 145036
Freshly thin and sharp Mabs, somewhere back in April. It basically took ten seconds before it started bleeding. A week later it was a twice smaller reddish crust. Shed it a couple days later. Once tended to, didn't bothered me out of finishing my prep and the supper.
"Dumb work" injury?
A glass wine broke in my hand as I lowered it out of sight into the soapy water in my sink. Didn't bump on anything that I detected, it just basically shattered. When I took my hand out of the water, the biggest shard still attached to the bottom of the glass was also embedded into my finger, sticking out the other side. The whole thing stupidly hung there midair for a split second before going to crash on the floor. And there I was profusely gushing blood already with shards everywhere around me.
This was beginning of July. It took about three weeks before I could get through a day without a band aid. To this day, I still have a desensitized area that somewhat stings depending on pressure exerted there. Some slight deformation/swelling.
Took two days before I could hold a knife steady without wincing from sheer pain. Four days before I could get back to sharpening.
I did clean the whole kitchen and finished the dishes that very night though - once I could make out a path through shards and blood to get to the bathroom and slow the bleeding enough to have a temporary patch holding and not getting immediately drenched in blood. Took a while.
