I got to play doctor.....

Yesterday Jaci and I were in the basement when I got a phone call. It was my granddaughter, Kera, and she needed me to come over right away (they live just on the other side of a pond from us). Jaci and I jumped in her pickup and went over. When we got there Daya was in the living room crying. She had refilled a stapler and then had stapled her finger! I was expecting it to just be one side of a staple in.......but no......she had the staple neatly and completely in her finger!!! I knew that if I just took my finger nails to it I could get it out but she'd probably cry harder so I took a knife with a small blade and faced her behind me where she couldn't see. :nursing:Then I took her arm under my arm and with the blade popped the staple out. She cried a little but it was out and done. We let it bleed a little then put peroxide on it. In a little while she was laughing and feeling better.........just wait until she gets my bill for surgery and a home visit!!!......She won't be laughing then!!!!!! :sidesplit:

I swear Diana! You did it to me again........start out with something serious and then you have me cracking up laughing!:D
Poor Daya. I bet that hurt like crazy for a minute though! Good job Dr Grandma! Have your billing dept. go easy on her!:p:p

I just now realized that I fibbed:eek:........I said that I "jumped" into Jaci's pickup........actually it was more like I slowly got one cheek on the seat then pulled myself up so I could get the other cheek on the seat!! Sorry about that error!!!!

I need to stop coming to 4WT at work, I'm sure I look like a dork with a big smile on my face and trying not to laugh at my desk!

Did you ever read the post about the time that we had a tornado coming our way and my husband and I were at the garden (down a ways from the house)? We ran to jump in the pickup and my husband had it started and was leaving while I still had only one cheek on the seat!!! Thank goodness the grass was wet and the tires were spinning or I'd have been drug to the house!!!! I do believe that his adrenaline was pumping!!!!
