not too worried about infection, I have been on antibiotics for almost a week for an upper respiratory infection. Not feeling too bad I have learned that I tend to bump my elbow a lot, apparently when there isn't any damage there you don't notice bumping it?

Man, Bart that makes me hurt. I have cut myself badly way too many times. I'm glad your alright. Take care of it. I always look at things like what happened as Gods way of telling me I need to rest. Because I'm pretty sure you & I have one thing in common & that is we need to be doing something almost always.
Take care of that arm Bart.

I think it might be God saying slow down a little, that is why I took the rest of the week off. as for the tetanus shot, I didn't have an answer as far as when my last one was (at least not an answer in under 2 seconds so I got on!
