Bad Saturday & 15 minutes

My husband pinched the tip of his finger off while helping a fellow motorcycle rider up a difficult spot.  He grabbed hold of the forks to pull, the driver turned his handle bars for balance, and my honey's finger was caught in an impossible spot.  His entire finger nail was ripped off along with all of the meat/flesh around the bone from the first knuckle to the tip.  The bone is also broken.  He got himself to the hospital after a difficult 1 hour motorcycle ride and 1 1/2 hour truck drive.  I met him at the emergency room finding him in a lot of pain.



I am now in charge of chores which means feeding/watering the horses.  Jasper is fun to see.


Look at the lovely sunset!  It was so red!





Look what I found!  Two sister momma cats huddled together with their new baby kittens in a tiny space.  I am pretty sure they are nursing each others babies.  There are 10 kittens.



I am also in charge of setting alarms and making sure my drug induced honey gets his meds every 3 hours to control the pain.  He sees an orthopedic surgeon this week to see what has to be done.  The emergency room doctor just barely stitched the flesh together enough for the surgeon to just rip it apart when he can see it.  Sucks to get hurt on a Saturday and have to wait until Monday to get the help you need.

  10. Oh your poor husband, that is a nasty accident. I hope the surgeon can help with the injury. Also take care to look after yourself, caring for an injured husband and taking on extra chores is very wearing. The sunsets are beautiful and I'm rather envious as we haven't had a decent sunset in what seems like weeks.
