Waiting for dinner
So since FB is totally inactive at the moment.. lol
I'm sitting here way too hungry. I am still on that slow upswing with the weight. I had started to walk but then the damn snow arrived yet again, and getting the get up and go to to to the 'gym' to walk on the boring machines.. well, I'd rather walk outside.
Last weekend, even with all the SuperBowl food I was actually good. How I don't know. I brought up the fryer my uncle had given me. Brand new never used from a yard sale. That was fun. Sadly the dough I had made in the bread machine was like a rock, so the improvised covering of Pilsbury dough which I had only one can of was enough to save the day and give everyone one cookie. Probably for the best. The wonton things were not so great I didn't think, but they were all eaten, so I guess you can fry anything and make it good.
I did another batch of oreos and then tried frying sweet potatoes which actually were not as good as baked I don't think. Not sure what I did wrong. Well, all is put away now. I was going to do donuts, I love home made donuts.. but I think that would just be really tempting fate. Or fat, whichever.
So the other day at work I was trying to pound the end of a rock rack back on after I had cut down the end (the wood had broken) and drilled out the center to receive the metal. But it was still too tight, so I was trying to hit it back in.. and it slipped and my finger got between the metal and the hammer. I mashed the side of my pinky. Then I mashed the bench that the vise is on. Don't let anyone tell you hitting things and swearing doesn't help pain. It does wonders. So I was dripping blood and Cuz was trying to tell me all the things I should or should not do, what the technical name of the boo boo was.. all I want was something to apply pressure. Then I was trying to find a bandage to wrap it with and our first aid kit came from the 60s and she didn't want me using anything in it because it was not sterile.. UG. Some days people can be too helpful.
Finally got it wrapped up and it's healing. I didn't break anything but really crushed the skin right off of the side. There seems to be a blood blister under there. It also seems warm at times, and I'm watching for any signs of infection. No puss. I keep peeling things back and poking at it. I always feel it's better to let things bleed and self clean. I've also poured peroxide on it repeatedly and changed the bandages 3 times a day. I cant type okay now, so it's getting better. That's my sob story for today.
Not sure how much of the Olympics I'll bother to watch. Funny I remember watching them at Disney with Himself so that must have been 4 years ago that we went. Time flies.
