Summer what is that. I think the monsoons are hitting us a bit early this week.




Started working the night shift for a while as much as I like it I don't. LOL
Dad has been working on sandblasting the mustang right now.
Everybody have fun but not to much.

In the USA the ec seems to get great service.
Sadly in canada they are horrible at service.
Lucky if they ever even return a phone all its so bad.
Ec is now Airbus helicopters......worst service i have ever seen.
Too bad to as their machines are nice.

Well yesterday was a huge bust. Went to a buddies before work as my brothers are helping him and after that left with the envoy to work. I had to stop to get gas in our gas cans and only way to get to the back is folding the back seats. Well I got gas and was folding the seat and as I did I caught my arm on the latch part and cut myself about a half inch long. I was pretty sure I could see the bone so ran into the store and put some decent bandages on. Luckily although I was bleeding pretty good I wasn't going to lose a lot of blood. AI was able to drive 12 miles to work and let my boss know and I cleaned up my wound again and bandaged it up better then mom and dad came and mom brought me to the ER as I could barely drive to work let alone another 25 + miles. So two stiches later and a tetanus shot later I was able to go back to work (in pain once the numbing died off) one armed. I am not allowed to do any hard or heaving movements as it will open the stitches.


Today the pain isn't there as much but still there so at work is going to be fun.
I literally just typed this with one hand (my left and I am right handed.) so it took me 10 mins to do this which would usually take me a minute. LOL

Bummer Trav!

I usually "remind" myself with an injury every few years, that I am due for a Tetnus shot.....those suckers are about the most painful shot there is! Oh well.....beats the alternative!@

To tell you the truth after having stiches in the back of my head and the only thing at home was rubbing alcohol the tetnus was the worst part until after I got out of the hospital and the numbing wore off. LOL


I was just talking to mom and dad about it and I am glad I had moms envoy because driving with my left hand my truck would have been impossible plus mom can't drive my truck it is so tight of steering.
