What have we got here?
Some small bug? Nope.
Strange growth on a tomato plant stake? Getting Warmer!
Eyelashes impaled on a tomato stake? Ding! Ding! Ding!
Usually not a good thing when there’s eyelashes on an object such as this. In this case it was no different. Beth was hoeing the garden and for some reason decided to shove her eye into the stake. I was playing with the dogs a little when she turned around in obvious pain. She must have been reaching down to pick up the hoe after she dropped it and *doink!!!* Eye meets stake… I didn’t think it was a big deal until I looked at her eye a little better and could tell that the white part was bleeding. Off to urgent care!
After some humor at her expense (sorry honey…) and about a 30 minute wait, we saw a nice nurse who took a look at her eye. Poor girl. Missing eyelashes. 13 weeks pregnant. Shouldn’t even take the drops the DA prescribed because they’re class “C” which is only if it really hurts. Still could. The DA said it would probably look worse tomorrow. Check back for updates!
All this after a nice afternoon playing with Norm and the sprinkler and taking care of the new flower garden behind the garage…
