I Hurt Myself Today

I've had a rough week. As it turns out, I'm not cut out for physical labor.

We're pulling up the carpet in the living room/hallway. The hardwood floors underneath are actually in great shape, so minimal refinishing is needed. In the last week, however, I've managed to:

-Smash my hand between a crow bar and the floor

-Get blisters on three of my fingers and the area between my thumb and forefinger from the pliers I used to pull up staples.

-Smash my pinkie at work when a shelf fell from a side table while I was carrying it.

- Get a chemical burn on my hand and arm from the adhesive remover


All of these on my right hand. I can't even hold a pen right now, so work's fun. And sadly, I'm only about halfway done. I've done all I can on my own, but now I need someone to help me move the heavy furniture.

Any takers?

Get those furniture sliders - those make it so two people can easily move stuff that's really heavy.

Adam always knows the easier way to do things.

Avitable- Yeah we use those at work, they're nice

Christie- The problem is getting the entertainment center off the ground to slide them underneath

Poppy- Don't feed his ego! ;)

Robin- Well, my guess is that he'd be paying someone to do this for him, he wouldn't be the one on his hands and knees.

Hannah- I'm hoping to recruit my brother
