I posted this in another thread but forgot about this one

This smurf bit me yesterday, and bit me good!  Cut is on the fleshy inside of my ring finger's first digit.......wanted to take a photo for you guys but it refused to stop bleeding!  :ahhh

Nice & deep........as it should be when you do something so utterly stupid  :facepalm:

Ever found that these cuts from sharp knives heal quicker?

I had to drill through the wood in my Opi n.8 because I wanted a lanyard on it. I didn't know they made model with included holes. Nice looking one!   :salute:
