Lori’s Boo Boo
I was out working in the yard, getting ready to start on our reflecting pond when Lori opened the kitchen window and yelled out, “I need you Matt”. Unfortunately, it was a call of panic, and not a romantic statement. I rushed inside to find out what the matter was and saw Lori holding her hand with blood all over the place. She had been washing dishes and a glass broke in the pan without her knowing it. She stuck her hand in the glass to wash it and put quite a gash in her hand. We rushed off to the hospital in Fortuna, and then waited in the lobby for over two hours. Apparently they were already pretty busy because no other walk-in patients came in the whole time. Finally she got to see a doctor and he numbed her wound and then stitched it up. By the time we got home it was almost dark, but while we were gone a big whole appeared in our yard.
