surgery

There are hazards in this Mama Builder line of work.

Monday I was hauling large quantities of lumber and got a big splinter caught in my right palm. Yesterday morning there was still a chunk of wood caught in my palm. I got out what I could on my own, but had to enlist the services of the on-site surgeon to help me get out the rest.

Some alchohol pads, a utility knife, and light pouring in through the greenhouse wall made for the OR.


Deep breathing played its role and I got through without even a slug of whiskey for my pains.

On to framing!
