A Monday I'd rather done without.
« on: January 21, 2013, 05:40:39 pm »
Well it started well... Then I spent several hours in A & E after falling on the pavement, I had only just got my new glasses from the opticians (reading I might add). ;D
Well to cut a long story short. They gave me a nice dose of gas & air put my thumb back into place as I had disclocated it and then sent me on my merry way. :excited: It is rather painful at the moment. :(
All in all a great day. :roflanim:

Trim up a few sheep feet and you'll feel fine  :roflanim: :roflanim: ..... only joking.    Glass or two of wine might help  ;)

Ouch!
I'm glad it was mended so quickly, but I think you might need some liquid anaesthetic tonight  ;)

At the moment it is twice the size of my other thumb. Drugged up with painkillers and hoping to sleep tonight. :fc:  Driving is out as can't take the handbrake on and off which could be a bit hair raising around here. :P  So hubby can drive for a change.
Wine would be good, but better not mix with the painkillers, but there again I might not feel a thing. ;D

One glass shouldn't hurt - depending on the size of the glass.  ;)

Ouch!!  I can relate to how you feel.  Just a year ago, I came off my mountain bike on a patch of black ice going down hill.  Landed with a thud, and discolated my second finger at the knuckle.  Had gas and air too, and a nurse put my finger back into place. Have to be honest, and say it does hurt for a while.....and difficult to do day to day things too. They strapped my finger to the first finger, to keep it still.  Had weeks of physio too,

Sorry to hear about your fall Karen. I hope the thumb isn't feeling too bad this morning although I suspect it will take a fair few days before it starts to calm down.
I hope you wern't planning anything too strenuous.
