Do Not Try This at Home!



Jim got stitches today.  He was trying to pry apart some frozen salmon burgers with a steak knife.  Yeah.  The burgers came apart, and the knife sailed right between them into his hand.  Does the picture remind you of anyone?  He was really wishing the injury had coincided with the week when the scripture readings are about bearing the marks of Christ crucified.  That would have been a great sermon illustration!

But seriously, he had to get three stitches; his first.  He is okay though; we are thankful that he didn't sever any tendons or anything in his hand.  He is in some pain, but it is tolerable.  I think he did it just so he would get out of driving tomorrow.

Which brings me to my next topic.  We are on vacation starting tomorrow after church. Yippee!  We are driving to Wisconsin where we will visit some friends: a church member who just started at Concordia Mequon, Lena's God parents and their girls, and one of my high school friends and her husband.  We will be gone all week, coming home on Jim's birthday.

I'm sure I'll have lots of pics to show when we get back.  Hope everyone has a great week.
