Ouch

Today i was packing some stuff at work and had to cut down a box as it was to big ,I have a lovely sharp Stanly knife for these jobs, the knife hit a join and slipped cutting me across the wrist,
lucky for me it missed the tendon and artery, it bleed like hell,so we stuffed a rag on it and of to A+E i went, 3 stitches and a tetanus shot later i was back at work.....sooooo the lesson here is
don't cut towards yourself lol Lucky its my left hand side so i can still scrap my heart out

October sketch SBBD & NZ Dare 56












This sketch was perfect for my heritage album,the photo here was black and white originally,
on the back is a list of what each persons hair colour is and the colours they were wearing, then
colour was added to the photo,I wonted to portray the love they felt but keep with the old look
so went for the very pail blue,such a beautiful photo but such a sad story.
