Laurie Lee, that is funny. I don't think it would catch on. My thumb is fine. Can't wait until I can take this bandage off, it is cramping my style.
I am sorry to hear bout your Mom. It is sad to watch your parents to become feeble, and sick. My Daddy just had heart bypass surgery about three weeks ago. He is doing much better now. Mama is suffering from bursitis in her hips. She had surgery last year in one hip where they took out some bursa, but apparently not enough. She is not any better, really she is worse after the surgery. We are waiting till April for the dr. to go back in again if she doesn't get any better. She is just getting worse with it. I take care of her---doing stuff for her, taking her to the drs, and etc.. I have two brothers who are in charge of taking care of Daddy.
I bet you don't have any help, do you? When it is one on one, it does take up your time. I hope the best for you and your Mom.

Hey Skeesix, thanks for the advice. I thought I was being safe. I guess I was concentrating on what direction I wanted the blade to go in, I forgot about my fingers. Next time I will use a longer piece of wood, and not cut to the end. You are right, I do need all my fingers for playing.

Please be safe with your power tools. Don't get your fingers close to the blade. If you have to do a cut on a small piece, attach it to a larger piece or use a push stick.

Think about what you're going to do before you do it. Don't operate machinery when you're tired or having problems concentrating. Don't wear long sleeves or jewelry that can get caught in a machine. Wear eye and ear protection and a mask if there's dust.

We need to keep all of our fingers for playing!

Hey Ladies, Where are yall? Just wanted to know I have a scroll saw now. Apparently, I have not got the hang of it yet, cause yesterday I sawed my thumb. I drove myself to the dr.,told them I think I need a bandaid. They said with that much blood, I think you need more than that, and they laughed. After the dr. looked at it, he said, the question is whether to deaded it or not. I said, don't---the shot is worst than the cut. He put two stitches in my thumb without numbing it. He said we are doing it like Clint Eastwood, except you are not drunk. I said, I don't have a stick to put in mouth either. We laughed about it. I thought yall might enjoy the story. It is true.
I did it while trying to cut a design on a sample piece of wood for my second build. I think I need more practice---what do yall think? LOL

Hi Dianne, her name is Michele Lundeen. She is a real true blue (ha) Blues singer. She's just turned 50 years old, sings from her soul. She wrote the music and sings it. I by happenstant's did a poster for the Blues Cruise Ship, with Michele Lundeen singing on the ship. Turned out she's part time editor for the magazine and went on the cruise last fall. When I checked out the BluesFest magazine web site, there she was talking about the cruise. I connected the dots and wrote her about my painting and she bought it for $75.00. I was thrilled to death (my first canvas painting). She in turn sent a cd. It's my favorite cd. The music is great and can't tell you how much I enjoy her music. I like Buddy Guy, but her cd is the best of the best. Give her a try, she's a struggling artist(broke) like most artists are. Just put Michele Lundeen in the search bar, shell come up. She is called the "QUEEN OF STEAM"..YEP, SHE SURE IS.

Leanna, what is the webpage of the woman who sings good you were talking about?

Comment by Dianne Woods on February 16, 2010 at 6:10am

Blue-Moon, great story. Have you checked out Who Are You above. Ladies have introduced themselves to everyone. Check it out, it is interesting, and will get to know everyone if you hadn't already.

Leanna, you might check out that too.
