I should have gone back to bed yesterday. Or not gotten out at all.<\/p>\n
When the P plates flew off the car as I went up the street, when I accidentally got a customer’s name very wrong in an email, when I misplaced quite a number of things throughout the day, and then when I burnt my hands just before a friend arrived for dinner in the evening… (actually I’m sure there was more that went wrong than that!)<\/p>\n
I stupidly picked up the cast iron mortar and pestle to move it (without oven mits), right after taking it out of the oven (with oven mits) where dessert had been cooking and the mortar and pestle had been drying. Clever.<\/p>\n
After keeping my hands under running water for 20 minutes, we then covered the burn sites in sterile non-stick bandages and then covered the worst ones in stretchy bandages for some pressure. While one bit of one finger blistered on contact the other bits didn’t seem so bad. I didn’t feel it was bad enough to go up to the hospital after our guest left, although we did um and aah about that for a while. I’ll be off to the doctors this morning to get my hands checked out, and to get them to show me how to care for them properly. <\/p>\n
Fortunately I finished knitting The Reader’s shrug yesterday (thankfully it fits well and she loves it!) so I don’t have that hanging over me. But I was SO looking forward to getting started on Rainbow Girl’s knitted dress. I don’t think that will be happening today. \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
