Default Watch out for those gardening tools

So yesterday was my 10th wedding anniversary and today is the party!!
So i figured i get the kids together and do some yard work.

Well stupidity got the best of me. LMAO

I was pulling on a piece of shrubbery with the hand held clippers and it broke loose from the shrub and straight into my wrist!!
Shocked to see my blood squirting out of my wrist like the movies, so placed my thumb over the wound and headed to the doctors.
A few butter fly bandages and a shot they give you every 10yrs and I'm out of there.

I was told they never stitch puncture wounds and sense the bleeding stopped its all good.
The only reason i went to the doctors was because of the squirting affect i seen when it happened.

So watch out for those gardening tools!
And yess that is a hint of blood on the tip of that tool.

I should of took a pick of the squirt.

As of right now it really hurts. Feels like some bruised me badly, and it a tad swollen as well.

No weight lifting for me now, for a week :(

Nice. I usually do not notice when I get slashed open. I suppose if blood was squirting everywhere I would notice that though Lol

Too late for me. I caught a few fingers in a hedge trimmer a few years back(like 4) and that didnt end well either.
