Whatever it was it must have been truly heinous and evil! I didn't mean it! I apologize!'I am soooooo sorry!
Can I pick up my karma and dust it off now?
First off, I spent the afternoon swearing at one of my sewing machines only to discover that the power strip cord has gone wonky.
Then I decided to spend the evening working on my Christmas present to DH. I am making him a wooden box. I was using the dremel to outline the areas I am going to route out. It is just more visible to me that way. Only I over focused on what I was doing. I was using the flexi-shaft, and holding on too tight because all my attention was on the work. My hand spasmed from the tension, the free roving flexishaft twisted madly and attacked my head. It grabbed hold of my hair at the very front of my part, and the next thing I knew I had recovered the shaft which had a big old gob of my hair twisted up on it. I am very lucky I have long fine hair. Lucky it is fine because it broke instead of ripping out by the roots. Lucky it is long because after the hair broke, the shaft wound up the parts it already had, right out of my braid, which gobbed it up too much to grab any more.
Then when I got downstairs and had a cup of coffee in my hand, and had just decided to work off the nerves by killing some pixel people, my mom called. She was letting me know she was in town. Apparently she left my dad home because he had shoulder surgery on Monday (removing bone spurs and the scar tissue they engendered). She brought my little sister with her. I have never tried to kill my little sister, even though it would have been very satisfying to do so many many times.
Maybe instead of having done somethng awful, something very very good is going to happen that I don't really deserve? Maybe?
NightMist I am so getting a foot pedal accessory for the dremel!
