That is the question I was asking myself late last night.
While sleeping in bed, I was startled by my Dear Husband (DH) standing in the doorway.
His dark silhouette was in the middle of all the light, flooding into the dark bedroom. The spoke softly and said, “Honey, I think I hurt myself.”
Then he was gone! It took me a half of a second to realize that I was awake and this was not a bad dream.
My DH was at the kitchen sink washing the wound. The whole sink was red with blood, not to mention the trail of blood from the bedroom to the kitchen.
Apparently, he had gone out to work in the garage. While using a power tool, (there are too many to name and If I try to distinguish between them, I will get it wrong) he sliced his thumb almost in half.
There were several deep cuts, but we were able to get the bleeding stopped relatively quickly. Once the bleeding was under control, we decided that he probably would not need stitches (really, he did not want to go to the ER to get them).
He took some pain reliever and sat down in the recliner. He assured me that he was alright, so I went back to bed. I was still awake about an hour later and my DH still had not come to bed.
Get this! He had gone back into the garage and finished his project!!
Now, IF I could only find a way to make his Hands as HARD as his HEAD …
We will not have this problem again! (but, I know that is only wishful thinking)
That sounds like my husband!
