One of my twins did exactly this when he was about 18 months old, except in his case the door cut his finger off from the top joint, and it was too crushed for the doctors to sew back on.

On the upside, it made telling the twins apart much easier.

Home made parachute,stilts on skates, (skate board ski rope friend with truck). The only time I got hurt so bad that I needed more than one day to heal involved a 6 ft. unicycle and a bottle of wine.

My friends son saw a Spiderman jumping from one roof to other and though he could try the same. He just jumped from his balcony shouting “Spiderman is Great” and broke his limbs.

Dave — So you’re saying if a doctor pulled out a roll of duct tape, I shouldn’t worry? I can just imagine how much the little broken toe hurt It’s always the smallest broken body parts that hurt like an SOB.

TurnItUp — Oh, the stairs. Read my latest post. I’m no fan of steps these days.

Elisha — Aw, that’s cute! I have long hair now. No beater shall come near it.

MA Fat Woman — I’m a little late responding on this post, but I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I did!

Grandy — What a horrible story you posted. I’m so sorry about your face.

Waltsense — So you only have a teeth problem? You’re lucky in a way. Those you can replace.

AVCr8teur — Oh, yes. I don’t go sticking my digits where they don’t belong. “to see if it would hurt.” See, that’s why kids are dumber than doorknobs. Awesome. Boredom is the enemy of many.

Kaja — Holy crap! OMG. Bad news. Bad news. I’m sure the owners were so understanding of your 9 year old idiocy.

Stephanie Barr — Gross. Bubbles would have been so much more fun. And cleaner.

Sherry — And so you leave us hanging???

Cath Lawson — OMG!!! Battery acid?! Do you know how lucky you are that you can see???

Clara — God, I don’t know how much more of these stories I can take. I’m in pain just reading them. The splinter had to be bad enough, but your treatment sounds utterly medieval!

sell your condo — I still can’t believe your story. My God.

Di — I’ve heard how beautiful the Blue Ridge is. The photography on your blog is awesome, by the way.

Because I live in the Blue Ridge Mountains and because my blog started off being of photos of the surrounding Blue Ridge area it only seemed right that it should have the name The Blue Ridge Gal.. BUT, if we were ever to move out of this area of the country I would certainly choose a new name appropriate to that area.

The Blue Ridge Gal

It had probably been there for years before we lived there as we are often shoeless in the house and clean up anything like like our lives, or at least our feet depend on it. Anyway, some little voice in there two year old brain told them to put the glass up their nose. thanks…

I was 9 years old playing with my cousins upstairs at their house. For some crazy reason, we thought it would be great fun to slide on the linoleum in our socks. The linoleum didn’t go all the way to the wall. There was about a foot of bare wood around the edge. We got that floor pretty shined up and kept sliding farther. I managed to slide right off the edge and crashed into the wall. But that’s not the injury that really hurt. I had a huge sliver of wood stuck in the bottom of my foot, right in the middle of my arch. While I screamed, Mom dug out about 1/4 inch of the sliver. It was between 1/8th and 1/4th inch square. She knew she didn’t get it all out and the next day I had a red line creeping up my leg. Off to the doctor who prescribed soaking my foot in Epsom Salts. And when I didn’t have my foot in a bucket, I had a towel soaked with Epsom Salts wrapped around my foot and in a plastic bag. I totally missed all the fun during our family vacation at Grandma’s house. Eventually, Mom put some yucky, stinky black drawing salve on my foot and the remaining inch of sliver came out in just a few hours. I had severe pain when I tried to run or walk a long distance for years after that. But it’s all better now. I can’t even remember for sure which foot it was. And it’s only been about 49 or 50 years since it happened.

I feel sorry for your finger. I managed to get one stuck in a car door once. Not a fun thing.

Ouch Kathy – I felt that. But like you say, at least you did it at the doctor’s surgery.

I did lots of silly things out of curiosity. One was attempting to take an old radio battery to bits – I wound up with battery acid in my eyes. But I just rinsed a lot – I was too afraid to tell anyone what I’d done incase they confiscated my radio.

He didn’t toot bubbles. He threw up. That was much worse. I felt horrible (and he was six years younger so you know I knew better).

Kids always to stupid stuff. All the time. Your not moronic unless something like this happens after the age of 14.
I myself at the age of 9, for no particular reason, threw a rock at a shiny brand new car. Boy oh boy were my parents pleased about that..

Sometimes kids just have to learn the hard way. I’m sure you got smarter after the incident unless you did it again later in life. As a kid, I loved to pop balloons to see what was inside. I smashed my fingers…(note: fingers, not finger), in a drawer because I was curious if it would hurt. I played with pepper and Vicks on my hair. Those were not good days. What can I say, I was bored.

7 times I chipped or knocked out my teeth. Never a broken bone or anything else; except for that one time I left the finger in the crosshairs of a 85 Olds Wagon. This blog reminded me of that time and to schedule a dentist appointment to check my vaneers.

Oh…I’m afraid those moments are too many to list here. Usually a cast or some sort of gauze pad was required by the end. I will have to post that soon, and link back to you. I’ve been “MIA” for the most part lately. Good to see you’re still making many giggle.
