   Yay, time off from WLF! You can come back in the spring with extra energy.

   Sushi and MNF last night. Barb, getting dressed and leaving the house is overrated.

     my hair is a complete disaster – so, a shower is definitely in my immediate future.

   Wordle in 4.

   Was cooking dinner last night and managed to slice the fingerprint off my right thumb with a mandolin. I finished cooking with one hand and thought it was going to be OK. This morning, after changing the bandage, it doesn’t want to stop bleeding! May need to rebandage.

   Wrap up Games meeting tonight. I haven’t heard any numbers yet.

     I have a mandolin but never use it for that very reason.
     Hope it stops bleeding

     Did that with a knife. Go to a doc in a box to see if they want to cauterize it to stop the bleeding.

     I always use the guard, or a chainmail type glove when I use my mandolin, which I rarely use.

     Ouch! This is not the first time you or Debbie have sliced a finger off cooking dinner. You all are dangerous!

       I know I’ve done it before. I don’t recall Debbie doing it. I did think about the doc in a box, and might yet.

       I think it’s a ploy to get out of cooking. He’s maimed himself twice in the last month.

       Blog fly-by courtesy of the fact that I’m sitting at a computer this morning. I’m the chair of our opening hunt which is Saturday. I’ve had to actually do job-like things. 10/10 don’t recommend.

   Home from the Waschsalon. I needed to use the biggest washer because I had three sets of bed linens to wash today.

   On the way home I stopped at WLF@UFO to cut two of my three pepper plants. I should have cut the third, but am going to see how dead it is next week after cold temperatures.

   As I drove to UFO I saw Betsy walking her dog, with two of her friends. I pulled over to say hello.

       Betsy has taken lurking to levels that I never could have imagined myself. 😉

         Betsy doesn’t lurk. She would have to comment to lurk! I think she’s just a figment of Paulie’s imagination.

           Agreed, you still are the Gold Standard for Lurking.

   I have harvested many squash and “pumpkins”. I think I will see what happens to these when exposed to freezing (near freezing) temperatures.

   Why am I deciding their fate today? I won’t be ITP when the temperature plummets.

     I may try to see if I can remain ITP for the entire month of December, with one exception for the express purpose of picking up my December four-pack from Schoolhouse.

     I already know I will be traveling to Athens for the final week of January to attend a farming conference.
