Too true. If it can happen, it will happen. We old toppies need to incorporate quick risk assessments in our daily lives.

OUCH!

Don't you just hate when that happens?  I am always inflicting minor
injuries on myself.

I've been doing some repairs around here & last night I slipped with a
wood chisel & put a deep laceration through the end of my left thumb;
split the nail in half. Stopped the bleeding & bandaged it myself last
night, but I had to get a tetanus shot, and of course the local VA
clinic is closed today.

I just got home from 4 hours in the emergency room over at the Durham VA
Hospital. Three and a half hour wait for a half hour treatment, but I'm
not fussed. I expected I'd be low priority, so I took along a book to
read while I waited.

Turned out I got a Tetanus booster in 2013, so I didn't need to get the
shot after all. They did re-bandage it quite nicely.

Once again to prove that there's nothing mechanical I cannot break, I
managed to drop the LX that I keep planning to use, but never do, four
feet onto a concrete floor, which even considering that the LX is built
like a light tank didn't do it any good at all.  This could cap my week
of wreaking havoc, on everything from computer equipment, to my car, to
now the LX.

I was going to say on the bright side that I hadn't managed to destroy
my cell phone, but then remembered that I did actually break a landline
phone last Sunday.

I think I just want to go to bed and stay there until Jan 1st to avoid
destroying anything else for the rest of the year.
