I hurt myself cleaning of all things at work... flicked some things under the table and when I went to pull my hand back I must've had allot of force because I cut my thumb from the sharp ledge. (hard to explain) It's so deep it was numb for the first hour, the cut is a good 1in huge flap of skin. Fricken thing wouldn't stop bleeding for 20+ mins at work, after getting me cleaned up they told me to go get it checked out. Dummy me, I was going to stay n work. Good thing I didn't I had to have 5 stitches!

Have to say I've had some doozy of cuts from knives, the blood and all that doesn't bother me... but getting the stiches I swear to Gosh I was going to vomit from the pain. The nummy stuff did nothing (or not enough rather)

My poor wrapped up thumb



Like frankenstein in the background? He watches over me at night

Minus the events of work, I'm in a better mood sorta...

Ouch! That looks painful, Celena In your picture it looks like a mummy is punching Frankenstein

[missy123]

Well, your Halloween costume is done now

Explains why you didnt answer my text message, lol. I hope you got tons of fun pain meds!!

[mmllhh]

my god woman, be careful. I hope they gave you something for the pain cuz it looks like you won't be sleeping tonight. The good thing, there is no washing dishes in your near future.

[missy123]

I am sorry you cut yourself.... I am sorry you had to go and get stitches. Stitches suck and are yucky and hurt a lot and yuck!!!

Are you going to be out of work for a while or will you be able to return soon?

[tobi4]

Ouch Celena! When you do something, you do it good eh! Yikes!! Heal up quick girl, thats going to interfere with typing!

[MeganMomof5]

OMG Celena, how horrible It made my stomach churn when I saw your picture, and my thumb hurt...Makes my cut on the bottom of my foot yesterday (I stepped on some glass) seem like nothing...When my daughter got stitches the numbing stuff didn't work either! I hope you make a quick recovery!

[Celena]

Y'all cracked me up about pissed myself! Dh thought it was funny too

Thanks ladies I love the humor makes da ouchies less annoying.

Ya dr gave me codiene, doesn't last long but is better than darvocet yet gentler on nausea than vicodin (barf)

[missy123]

Hi to your DH! Oh codeine can be fun, please share, LOL. I hope you feel better soon sweetie, I have cut my hand in the past and there is nothing fun about it. Mega hugs and kisses to you!

[Brittanie]

I hope you feel better soon honey!!

[KAB]

Ouch! I hope that means you'll be getting a little vacation to recover. Hope it heals quickly!

[ashj_1218]

OWWWWIIEE! I am tellin' ya...out of everything I have done to hurt myself (or that cause pain), the worst was my pinkie finger (I "popped" it open at work). Those appendeges hurt the worst. I really, really hope you got some sleep last night. But don't be surprised if you are in a lot of pain cause of that. I guess the nerves are so heavy in the fingers that it makes cuts like that even more painful. Don't be shy about those meds girl! Heal really quickly Sending hugs your way

[Halfbaked]

Ohh... Codeine.... I want some. They won't give it to me because I'm allergic and start hallucinating. Maybe I'll come to your house to trick-or-treat.
I cut my thumb open years ago and didn't think I needed stitches. When I finally went in, I needed 8 stitches (4 inside 4 outside) 4 shots later, they finally stitched it without it being numb too. I still have a huge scar, but if I ever rob a bank, they won't be able to match my thumb print.

Don't do anything too rough while it heals.

[Pitridge]

It looks like that could hurt. I like codeine please share
I hope you feel better soon.
Question, what kind of work do you do?

[Celena]

I cook in a busy higher end restaurant, they're trying to get me to come back tomorrow but dr said not until the 8th which I can't afford to do honestly.

Wanna see a pic from today? Kids gross tho

[luvmykids623]

OUCHIE!!! I'm sorry you cut yourself and needed stitches! I hope it heals quickly and the meds help!

[LisaG825]

That sounds painful. My Dh cut his finger on a saw at school. His finger still looks a little funny and he can't bend it all the way. That has to hurt!

You remind me of a mummy wrapped up for Halloween.

Hope it doesn't hurt that much.

Can't you get a little work comp? My dh also cut his hand changing a light bulb b/c it burst on him. They had to pay him for the rest of the night and his ER bill.

[ashj_1218]

That's what I was going to say...WORKER'S COMP! When I popped my finger at work, they had to pay me 66% of my wages (although I guess if you are tip-oriented, that won't help a ton) for the time I was out. I was out a week and a half, since they had to do surgery to extract lodged bone fragments. My finger still hurts sometimes and has a nasty scar. We could so be a bank-robbing team

[ldovey83]

Ouchie Celena.. I am sorry to see you got hurt lastnight.. MY son got hurt too.. He has a nice gash above his eye.. I hope you feel better soon hun..

[Micksbabe]

Ouch that looks like it hurt!!

I got codeine when I had my wisdom teeth out, it was great
