That's great you were able to sell most of your stuff Gayle!
On Saturday while Scott was holding down the fort at our garage sale, I went to a few others with my family. I found a mandolin vegetable slicer for $1! I've been wanting to buy one for a long time. I took it home and made a salad with it that night. Well, I put carrots in the salad and you can't really use the guard with them until they're short, so I held them with my hand until they were short enough for the guard. Just my luck, I slipped, and sliced my thumb pretty badly

It bled so much I almost got sick! I did have my cell phone on the counter beside me so I called Scott while I ran my thumb under cold water, and he came home immediately (he had just left to recycle cardboard boxes). We wrapped it up, and it stopped bleeding by yesterday morning. Yesterday afternoon, I put in a garden, and somehow managed to rip it open again

I'm being very careful with it now. It really flipping hurts!
