had a bit of a weirdo evening.....

Not sure what PTB I managed to irk but while dealing with a grumpy-ish Benton (way tired and stuffed to the gills with dinner) I cut my finger filling the bathtub. yes, you read that right...I cut my finger filling the bathtub.

It seams there was a broken off tine from a metal bristle brush embedded in the bath mat that I was washing off while the water was getting to temperature and I ran my left hand across it and got a heck of a good v-cut that then bled everywhere and I managed to blood splatter the wall and the sink and the floor of the bathroom while trying to get it dealt with. It managed to bleed for quite a while and only stopped after I bandaged it for a while. Its pretty ouchy today. So that slowed me down after mel was kind enough to start the bath again for the boy and get him into it to splash around. I was a good wife and made him dinner and then got to giving the boy a bath one handed and into bed with mel being a good dad and distracting him from being a rolly-polly boy on the changing table.

BTW, what do you do when the kid is too long for the changing table...let his feet hang off? Things I ponder....

After he was in bed I kinda sat for a while with a finger that stung and then got out my spinning and starting in on the last ounce of Falkland. It went okay but I had to stop due to the finger about half way through. I then sat down and worked on the ratty amigurimi a bit. He's turning out very cute.

( Ratty )

Since I started on things late I was still stitching away at his first ear and having to follow the directions to kitchener the toe shut. I never remember the steps and have to pull out my book each time.

Oh, well, I hope to finish him up at the officer's meeting tonight or when I get home from the meeting. We shall see.
