My stomach is doing flip flops just thinking about it.

Glad you are OK

Sorry--I feel your pain too. Accidents can happen in the blink of an eye. Just one question, when was your last tetanus shot? Might want to call your doctor and check on that.

I am a coward and I am still alive :) I put it straight in Dettol and held it there then covered it. It was a new needle. However, you are correct, and I am long overdue for a tetanus shot and happen to be visiting the doc tomorrow morning so will bravely bare my arm and have one, ouch, they hurt! Do not be put off the Horizon machine, it is fabulous! It is just that it decided to blood me! Not my week, I also stepped right on the back of a poisonous snake earlier in the week. I think I might need a little lie down as well as the chocolates :)

I"m glad to hear it was not more serious.
but I RUDELY want to know... I hope u didn't get blood on the quilt?

I ran over my fake nail too... got it just a bit too close.. luckily they were needed a trim anyway and it just chipped a piece off... I was able to file it down.. whew...!
I KNOW better than to stick my finger near the needle... but I repeatedly do it anyway.... sigh....

Pass the chocolate?

The needle bent badly, however the fabric was black where the crime occurred, thankfully. :)
