The Hobbit Hole III - Journey to the Cross-roads!

Posted on 12/17/2002 7:32:02 AM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Journey to the Cross-roads

The Two Towers Edition

Come on! Come in! -if you would like to have some seedcakes and a pint and relax a while. (If it is a special occasion, we still have a few bottles of the old wineyards left!)

Our first thread ( New Zealander builds Hobbit hole ) reached 4,100 posts, and we thought that was big. Our second thread (The New Hobbit Hole ) held us for over 48,000 posts, and we loved it dearly. We talked about moving to a new thread for the last 38,000 posts, but we are really slow to muster! Finally, the time has come. Tomorrow (at 12:01 am, to be precise!) The Two Towers comes out, and we start a new chapter.

And it just happens that she's still in the field, and actually doing some really interesting work... so I just emailed her.

Excellent! Remember the old saying "It's not WHAT you know it's WHO you know"! Being smart as a whip helps, but it's even better if you know someone who can point you in the right direction!

Have I missed the party AGAIN??

Had a minor emergency here that took me away from the puter...hubby was out in the garage working on something and managed to slice into his thumb with an exacto knife. Was not happy, but eager to do something until I realized I had NOTHING in the way of first aide. Not being able to control bleeding tends to freak me out.

everything okay now.

y'all still here?

yes, that...and then I took a trip to the store for gauze and medical tape...bleeding has been halted, but am not secure about the bandaging...there are reasons why I did not become a nurse!!!!

I panic when I cant stop blood.

If you really couldn't stop it, it is not beyond the realm of possibility that he really should go to the ER and have it cleaned and stitched up! You don't have to cut very deep in a finger before you are in the important part of the finger!

That was my thought too, but he'd be sitting there for four hours while some illegal immigrant gets treatment for a blasted cold. We can probably wait until tomorrow. The bleeding has stopped, but Im worried the slightest pressure or bump will make it bleed again. He's been keeping it elevated, and I have it wrapped in thick gauze. We're less worried about a scar than we are with making sure it heals.

I'm going to see about taking him in the morning. The clinic should have a better means of dealing with it. I hate emergency rooms. They have become so overworked they are practically useless now.
