Finially had a nice quite weekend, and hubby decided to saw his thumb instead of the shrub he was trimming.
He takes cumminten and instead of letting me take him 20 miles to the nearet emergency room on weekends, he decided it would quit bleeding on its own.
Well, Sunday morning found us in the emergency room and six stitches later we were home again to watch the golf tournament.
Bless him, he was so disgusted with himself. He's fine and NO golf this week. Sooooo, he is just trying to stay cool.......and I'm trying to stay out of his way..........
Sherry
Well enjoy the week my friend...and yes indeed keep cool....

Hubby will be fine as soon as he can get out to the golf course! Men!!!!! Today was a better day for him, and friday he gets his stitches out!
Thanks for coming by friend!!!!! Heide
glad hubby is doing better
peace.
Stubborn is not the word for you guys! And I know I'd rather put up with him then not have him at all. He's a mess and ahalf.......I swear I never had this much trouble with my kids.
Heide
He's much better today! Kinda getting use to reading and enjoying being home I think. It has really been too hot to golf anyway.
Thanks dear friend.....
Heide
I think some men think it unmanly to go to an emergency room.
glad we are worth it!!!

I think first that baby boys are in the womb when God gives them their HOW-To book on how to drive your wife crazy with your stubbornness.
It has been many years ago and it was Halloween Day on a Saturday. My twins were in Middle School and had a volleyball tournament in another town. So, we were gone most of the day and when we got home hubby was sitting in his recliner with a washcloth on his upper leg. I asked him about it and he said he had a little accident while we were gone, but everything was okay.
What kind of accident? Oh, I was out with the chainsaw, cutting a tree down and the chainsaw bounced off the limb and hit my leg, but it's ok.
I have been married too long to this man to know ok means not so much as ok. Let me see! He reluctantly took the cloth off and underneath he had a strip of duct tape on his leg. Yep, the all purpose duct tape!
Let me see what you have done to yourself.
It's ok, Honey, nothing to worry about it.
He knew by the look on my face that he had better show me.
He removed the tape and there it was, a gaping hole in his leg, several inches long. I just gasped and told him we are going to the ER right now.
OH no, not my husband he argued. So I called the ER and talked to a nurse friend of mine and told her of the situation and she told me to tell him to get himself in there now.
So he knew he had better or he'd not hear the end of it.
So I load him into the car and drive to town, having to go slow because of all the trick or treaters roaming the streets.
Our ER always have doctors who are not local, so the attending doctor was Asian. When we got there, signed in and got into a little cubby room, the doctor came in and the first thing he said was in his cute accent, "Ah, so this is the one who decided to re-enact the movie,Texas Chainsaw Massacre,for Halloween, " then he laughed. I couldn't help but laugh also, but hubby wasn't really in a laughing mood. Well, 11 stitches later and a tetanus shot, we were out of there and I saw more than one smile from the staff.
Now that I volunteer in the ER in our new hospital built 3 years ago, I can tell you we do have some laughs sometimes, and it usually concerns men patients. That is the common thread through all ages of the male species, STUBBORNNESS!!!
Take care Dear Heide, Love, Karen
