Involuntary Accupuncture


Lacework Duffle

Finishing up this bag today, I nicked my wrist slightly with the point of my scissors. Irritating. My skin is so tough now, I don't even bleed hardly ever at all on the stuff I make. (I should use that in my product descriptions shouldn't I?) No blood was shed in the making of this item...Later on, I grabbed the fabric right on a pin and pricked the center of my thumb - I mean I GRABBED and the pin STUCK ME. I felt an electrical impulse go straight from the prick to my medula oblongata and something inside me was released. Thank you doctor, that's just what I needed. Involuntary accupuncture. Man, that was good.

Owie! I can suffer glue gun burns like a champ but I hate being pricked with a pin or needle- especially under the nail. Yeeeouch!

It was actually right in the middle of my thumbprint. I have very interesting fingerprints by the way. A lot of involuntary accupunture through the years.

I'm wary of pins these days....

I pricked my finger last year and ended up in hospital for 5 days,on a drip with IV antibiotics!
The end of my finger had turned white with puss...
I was also having chemotherapy at the time so my immune system wasnt too good.

It's made me a little more careful when using pins.
