Prayers for Auntie Laurie

hi blog buddies. While i'm not filling in for jen doing this blogging gig, i work in an art gallery/gift store-kinks,quirks, & caffeine. we do the coffe thing (latte, expresso,cappucino) as a small part of the business. we have a good group of regulars who swear it's better than starbucks. anyhoo...while making a cappucino this afternoon i turned away for a second which resulted in 180 degree milk overflowing down my hand. 2 words-ouch and thank god for demerol. my husband is a family practice doc so he hooked me up for tonite and i see a plastic surgeon at 8am. chris mentioned skin grafts. i have no feeling in my thumb. wee bit scared. got the pics posted though and will continue to do so!!!!

Nothing is worse than burns. Hope all works out. Once those nerve endings start relaying pain, you'll be glad you have the demerol.

Thanks for thinking of all of us and keeping the updates coming.

Love,
Aunt Debbie

Owy for sure!!!! What a trooper though even though you're wounded, and probably only using one hand you got the job done.

Hope you're going to be o.k. with the burn. Nice that you have your own special man with a perscription pad!!
