    I’m not going to tell the details because they’re too embarrassing, but suffice it to say that one of our favorite dishes is what we call thumb chili

    Why are they so close to the couch? The kitchen is the place to be.

    Snerk. Been there and done that. Job site, chain saw being used to cut the base plate out of interior doorways. Foot not carefully placed. I saw it coming and jerked the saw upward as hard as possible, but it cut through the top of my shoe and sock, and it was bleeding (honest) up through the cut. I demanded to be taken to the emergency room where they made me take off my own shoe and sock. I could imagine the toe just falling into the sock. Then they said that if they put a little bandage on that one flap of skin, they’d have to charge me a lot, but otherwise, they’d just let me walk out free.

    Want a manlier bandage, Earl? Would you prefer Daniel Tiger or Arthur Read? Sorry, but Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and PAW Patrol are for Nelson.

    “Take your hand off?” In the second panel, I thought she was telling him to detach his hand and give it to her.

    I was cutting a piece of foam core with an Xacto knife. The knife slipped and I cut my thumb from the first knuckle to my wrist, getting deeper as I went along. Just missed the palmer arch. This was around 2008 and I got over twenty stitches.

    I was always afraid to tell my folks when I was hurt because I would get a spanking.

    One day, I decided to attack my thumb with a sawzall. Entering the kitchen with a hand-full of blood, I asked my Honey for some first aid. She screamed at me ’’You’re getting blood all over my clean floor’’. I apologized profusely for my assault on her floor. A dressing was applied. I was chastised again and was told ‘’you shouldn’t do that’’. That’s my life.

    Let’s do a little bit less of bashing any or all sexes, shall we? I’ve put enough of kids back together while parents of all types came apart at the seams while waiting for an ambulance or that mad dash to the ER. I’ve also been impressed by those who’ve held tight while others had complete meltdowns. Neither or any gender identity has a lock on being either brave or cowardly.

    Now, can we knock off that bull hockey once and for all? Thank you for not making me come over there and spanking some childish fool or another. I’m getting awfully tired of doing that so often.

    My folks taught me by example. Minor scratches get soap and water. Slightly heavier get antiseptic and bandaid. Larger spots get gauze wrap. Then a hug, a treat, a pat on the head, and go on about your business. Only emergency rooms were in hospitals. Doc visits cost money, which many didn’t have, so nature had to handle the rest. Still follow that regimen and taught our sons the same thing. Tends to reduce panic and over-reaction when calm is needed.

    I cut my left index and middle fingers off in a table saw (pushing too hard on the push stick over a semi dull blade). I put the stubs remaining in the dirtiest place in the world, my mouth, and swallowed more blood than I wanted. My FIL said he could stitch them back together, but I thought I needed a doctor, not a farmer. Both fingers work, although I can only count to 9.8.

    Earl you big baby. Now my own hubby did cut his finger so bad our daughter, as I was working, drove her dad to minor ER and the Dr. had to cauterize that finger tip.

    At age 12, I sliced a finger wide open with a hand saw when it bounced out of the kerf. Mom just pinched the skin together with a bandaid. I rested a while, then went back to sawing.

    May also need Neosporin ointment to keep the wound from being infected.

    I did the same thing opening a can of cat food. It is really quite amazing how much blood comes out of one finger!
