Cut my middle finger with a peeler

Tweet

I wanted to saute some yellow squash yesterday. Instead of cutting it in cubes or circles I decided to do long spaghetti strands. I have a manual peeler that does that. At first everything was going fine but then the peeler got stuck and wouldn't move further down. Instead of stopping and trying to remove the peeler from the squash I proceeded to make it go down and continue peeling. Wrong move! I ended up cutting myself and on the left edge of my left middle finger of all places. There were two cuts and the bleeding wouldn't stop. First I held the cut finger under running water and then hubby put a bandage (with neosporin) on it. He continued doing the peeling for me. Thankfully, he did not cut himself. This has never happened to me before. Cutting myself didn't hurt but touching the cut stings a little. So far, I have avoided wetting my left hand but when I take a shower that won't be possible. Hope it won't sting. Now hubby was supposed to wash the dishes yesterday. He did not and said he will do it today. He better come through. I'd wash them myself but don't want to because of my cut middle finger.
