Bloody nuisance

Isn't it strange how bumps and the like appear from nowhere. I was going to say from out of the blue that is more what it turned into.

Just before I left work at lunch I was knocking seven bells out of my hole punch. I had ordered one at work a few weeks back. I had used it a couple of times, went on leave for a week and found it had been nicked when I got back. Charming.

So unfortunately I had to cost the NHS a further £16 and ordered another one. It is huge and perfect for the job except that my work station is minute. So, you have guessed it, yesterday I knocked it off the desk accidentally.

With much hitting etc I managed to repair it today. The problem was that as I got on the bus to go home I noticed that the base of my middle finger, from the knuckle down, and part of my hand was turning from red to brown to blue to black. It is still like it now but has faded to a reddy brown. Gawd knows what I have done. It does not hurt but is swollen and feels a little numb and tingly. I shall have to pick one of the doctor's brains tomorrow and see if it is OK. Anyway to cut a long story short I have had to keep off the computer this afternoon.

Nice end to the day though with unexpected family visitors. Always good for a laugh.
