A Big Ooooops

Hi There!
I'm going to be absent this week.  I did a really foolish thing and grabbed a hot stove grate with my bare hand.  Burned all 4 fingers of my left hand.  It's a painful blistered mess.  Sewing this week, as well as answering emails, and leaving comments on your blogs won't be happening.  Typing this with the hunt and peck one handed method and that is just annoying!! Thank goodness for spell check to fix all the typos!! I did figure out how to switch my mouse so I can use it right handed, which feels really odd, but now I can at least catch up on blog reading.  My poor Google reader has about 300 unread items!  


I'll be quilting vicariously through your blogs!  


Wishing you all a happy, safe and injury free week!
