RevGal Friday Five and a Bonus


(Flashback to me as a wee one)
1) Are you a baby about small injuries?
Um, somtimes? Other times I don't even notice the 6-inch bruise on my leg until it's purple.

2) What's the silliest way you have ever hurt yourself?
Actual injury: I sprained my ankle in college walking across a parking lot. I was on crutches for 10 days in January, in MN.
Simple silliness: Fainting when I got my ears pierced.

3) Who took care of your boo-boos when you were a child?
Probably my mom.

4) Are you a good nurse when others have boo-boos?
I think so... though I have this issue with hearing about injuries, which is worse in my mind than actually seeing them or being part of them.

5) What's the worst accidental injury you've suffered? Did it require a trip to the Emergency Room?
I tipped a table saw over onto myself when I was 3 or 4 (it wasn't running). One of the guide poles broke into my arm, requiring stitches (only 3!!).

Oh but that picture is so cute.

my husband is that same way about "blood" - he gets all pale and faint looking if he hears the word, but not if he sees the liquid. Hmm, no wonder this Christian church business is a hard sell for him.

Is that you? Such a cutie.

I can't stand blood stories either, I can stand seeing it just not hearing it.

What a sweet picture!!

No blood-phobia in our house. I worked in a hospital blood bank for 15 years before entering ministry studies, and my hubby was a funeral director for 20 years. It's pretty hard to creep us out with blood.
