Cutting My Fingers Up

I just cut my finger (accidentally) the other day opening the plastic container of laundry detergent I made and now I find another cut on the other finger in the other hand. I wonder what that was from. Odd I have two small cuts on both fingers but on different hands. Did you last injure yourself and not remember how you did it or how did it happen and where? I have a bandaid on one of them, which is a deeper cut than the other one but worry about infection so will probably put another bandaid on the other one later. Do you worry about that kind of thing too or go without using bandaids most of the time? I have always used them alot.

I've done this a few times actually. I wouldmt notice until later, or when someone points it out. I have a few now I swear I beat myself up in my sleep.

Haha, beat yourself up in your sleep. I hope not. I seemed to have done these while awake as I don't remember feeling it this morning after I woke up but ya never know with me.

Some nights I would go to bed feeling fine, woke up with giant bruises all over me. So I conclude I beat myself up in my sleep.

I find bruises that I don't know the origin of. Some are from my goat but others I have no clue. As for bandaids, I use them sometimes. More to keep the wound clean so it has a chance to stop bleeding and seal but also to protect the soreness.

Yep, his name is Pickles and he does butt. I try to avoid it because his horns are very pointy, with sharp edges and they are hard. With his weight behind them they are freaking leathal. Nope, they don't eat anything. They like the sweetest grass, not stuff days old. They like some weeds but not most. They are fussy about some fruits and some veggies. They like flowers and expensive very old plants. Pickles chews my good clothes (not the old, crappy stuff) and pulls them off the clothes line. Pickles bangs on the back porch morning and night for a weet bix. He also bangs when one of the smaller animals wants to come inside. Nope, no tin cans or other weird objects...oh, unless you count laundry powder, He loves the stuff and I call it his lolly. My other goat, Tulip, loves dry dog food.

That came out wrong. I should have emphasised the ANYTHING in the second paragraph.

You have a goat? Cool. Does he butt you around like I have seen some goats do? Hey I always wondered too...do they really eat anything? Such a tin cans and other wierd objects?

I ordered lemon with my ice water when we went to the restaurant afew weeks back. I went to squeeze the lemon into the water and YO@WEE!! It stung! I had a cut under my thumbnail and couldn't remember how I got it. I don't use bandaids. I believe the more the sore is in the air the quicker it will heal.

Oh yea, I have done that and with other things. I just now realized my fingernail was slightly slit on the outer side on the middle of my nail. How I know this now is that the nail is growing longer and it's going towards the top, and I can feel how the "slit" there is making this "cut" appearamce on the nail. As if I cut my own nail in the middle area of the nail that is, like a papercut on the middle of the nail. Hard to describe it, you'd have to see it. I have no idea how I did this either.

I have experienced the same, not knowing where the cuts were from. We are sometimes too busy to take notice of small things that we hold or pick up. I sometimes get bruises on my legs, too without knowing where I bumped into.

Yep, I bruise easily so that might be it on this end. I just don't know how it happens sometimes. I probably feel it for a second or two when I do it then just don't look at it and go on to whatever it was I was doing and forget about it.

Oh you are lucky, I'm so darn clumsy I have all kinds of marks on me sometimes. Moreso when I was younger as i don't even do as much to get as many bumps and stuff right now. Noooooo don't send me the bill, I swear I didn't do it LOL.
