Fun with the Hartmans...

It is always fun to go shopping with us. You never know what is going to happen. Today I had to go buy some fabric, get some groceries and he home at 3pm to dog sit my sisters dog, Tucker. So, we are out the door by 10:30am run out local errands and head out for Hobby Lobby, JoAnns and Walmart.

We get to Hobby Lobby, have a run in with REALLY NASTY WOMAN and I will not blog about her because well she just SUCKS. :D I go to get my ribbon cut and Fayeth stumbles over her own feet and falls. Of course she catches her head on the material rack and I pick her up. When I pick her up blood start spraying everywhere. Me, her, the floor..Okay you get the picture. I quickly sit her on the counter put my hand over her gaping wound and calmly ask if the sales associate could get me some paper towel. She pulls the roll out of her drawer and hands me 1. As she looks up and sees blood running down my arm and dripping on the floor she grabs me a hand full.

Of course now all the upper management is there. No, I do not need the ambulance called. Do you have a first aid kit, I am going to need an abd pad and a roll of gauze. No, she tripped over her own 2 feet. She will be fine. No, I am honestly positive that we do not need an ambulance unless you do not have a first aid kit then I am going to need them to come and dress her head so I can drive her to our local ER. Can you please hold my purchases so that I can go to the ER, I will be back later to get them.

The Staff at Hobby Lobby was remarkable and wonderful. They gave her an ice pack to help vasoconstriction so she would stop bleeding a little more quickly and they helped me get her wiped up since it looks like someone severed an artery. They were great distracting poor Hannah who felt like it was her fault because they were "Buddies" and holding hands. So not Hannah's fault. If you ask Fayeth it is MOMMYS FAULT!

The Wound. This pic does not even do it justice. You could see bone under the gash.

All Glued close again. :)


I will admit that I rewarded the children with ice cream. They were very good in the ER and were fairly patient when we went back to Hobby Lobby and JoAnns to get what I needed. I was VERY proud of them. Poor Hannah is STILL feeling guilty.

Running errands? gesh, that is one heck of a way to run errands :D

I hope everyone is feeling better (pain gone, guilt gone etc)

Ice-cream is a great reward! I bet they enjoyed that :)

Nasty people do not deserve getting blogged about... they should just go crawl under a rock and be miserable. you cannot be nasty without being miserable yourself imo-- that nasty woman simply isnt happy with her own life so she stricks out at others- i pity her.

After that, I would have rewarded with $10s and $20s!
