lady_songsmithReally random entry here; you've been warned.
So I decided to clean up my little suite, at least enough to run a vacuum around and get up the dog hair, which is bloody well everywhere despite the fact that the dogs are not usually allowed into my suite. I'm in the middle of picking up the study, when I step on something sharp. My first though was a stray pin from the curtains I'm hemming, but upon examination -- nope. It's a friggin' splinter the size of a redwood. And naturally it breaks off at skin level when I try to remove it. *sigh* Much soaking, poking and prodding, squeezing and tweezing later, I finally got something out, but I'm not sure I got all of it. So I stuck my foot back into the epsom salt solution I was soaking it in. There is really only one word for the result of that move:
OWWWWWWW!!!!
And this is what I get for trying to clean. *sulks*
