Raven's Challenge 94

Today I face another Raven's Challenge.

10-word challenge are: space cadet, silver lining, wood, turtle soup, minaret, ice, grease, sales, mandala, mug


And for the mini: broken bones, slide rule, garbage, Chinese, sanguine

I am not doing a Raven's challenge because I smashed my fingers yesterday while taking down the Christmas decorations to the basement. I had to carry a large box so I put it on Dr. John's chair that goes to the basement. At the bottom I turned to lift the box off the chair and it got stuck. I pulled and the chairs button got hit and my hand was wedge between the box and the wood railing. with the chair heading back up the stairs.
I didn't have any broken bones but the hand was bruised. I put an ice pack on the hand. I got to use a word, that might be a silver lining. I did not drink turtle soup from a mug. That is the best I can do.

Ohhhhh NO! OWWIE! (I bet that's NOT the word you got to use...) Turtle soup is not all it's cracked up to be! (I don't know that... I've never tried it!) :) I am really and truly so SORRY for you AND your fingers... and I will pray they heal quickly... so you can type my tag! LOL! Did Dr. John kiss them for you? Tell him he must!

By the way - my Krysti was in the ER tonight getting her right leg exrayed. Apparently she took "quite a spill" off the ambulance this afternoon and so the rescuer became the rescuee -- fortunately she had no breaks either - but severe bruising! She's on crutches for at least 2 days. I just thought your misery might like a little company!

Ouch! Oh, Betty, I hope your hand heals quickly. In the meantime, take care of it and you.

You may not have done the word challenge but you did a good description of what happened to your hand....I was grimacing the whole time I was reading it. I hope it heals sooner rather than later.

We are taking Bree shopping for clothes Saturday...whoopppeee! She is done with semester exams. Pete went to the dentist and had NO CAVITIES! Good job, Pete!

We are done eating the puppy chow, I washed the container out and will bring it back next time we come to visit.
