A Trip to the ER

The house is coming together! The dry wall is up and painting will begin soon. Like all construction work though, we hit a “minor” set-back last week with a trip to the Emergency Room… but we are back on schedule!

Last Thursday, while cutting dry wall, Martin managed to also cut his finger. Unsure where to go or what to do, he frantically called me at work. Unfortunately I was in a meeting and didn’t get the message until 30 minutes later. Thankfully, Martin was able to wrap the wound, google the nearest hospital, get changed and make it to the ER on his own. Yes, my ever fashionable boyfriend felt the need to change out of his work clothes before heading out… I met him 45 minutes later at the hospictal but proved to be little help. Between the bloody bandage and the description of the accident, I had to excuse myself twice to avoid passing out and suffering my own injuries.

I somehow pulled it together long enough to clean up the crime scene that Martin had left behind at the house…looks like we might need an extra layer of primer before we paint.

More photos to come!
