… at least cleaning up from it is.  I was being such a good girl today and I got going on things bright and early today.  Up first on my list of things to do was inventory the product I have for my upcoming classes.  I organized it, reorganized my supply sheets, put my product in boxes and took those boxes downstairs to the "ScrapCave". Basement_used_corner_2 While I was putting my boxes on Fathers_love_complete_72dpi_3the shelves I have in the "Cave", the large clothes pin project (see photo at left) I did for the AMM Design Team  fell from the top of the shelves.  I was quick enough to not have it fall on my head, but it got my little toe. 

2007_10_10_004_web_2It’s BROKEN.  I know it is. 

I called Bryan to tell him what I did and he asked if I’d gone to the doctor.  I don’t think I need to go to the doctor, they won’t cast a broken toe.  Grandpa Packer will be so proud of me.  Bryan’s Grandpa Packer always said "Get a band-aid on it and get back to work" no matter how much blood there was!  So here I am, I’ve taped my little to to my other toes and I’ve gotten back to work.  I don’t have time to stop!

    I have broken my little toe on my right foot twice – My husband tells me that if I would wear shoes that covered my toes it wouldn’t be an issue. I feel for ya!
    by the way – where do you get your giant clothes pins. I got mine from the Oriental trading company. I was just wondering if there was a cheaper source.

    You poor thing – it must REALLY HURT!! You are so brave!
    A “Scrap Cave” that is a great name for it – I have a similar one in my basement. Isn’t it amazing how many HOURS it takes to do class inventory?!?!
    Hope you feel better soon!
