Missed the board


July 21st
Matt works LONG days on the house. He has done all the work himself, and only has a few weeks before he has to go back to work. He works until he is tired. Today he worked til he was overtired and missed a board with the nail gun. Thankfully the board that he missed slowed down the impending nail, but not enough to save us a trip to the emergency room. The picture shows how the nail was in his hand. You can see the hole if left in the side of his palm. You'd think it would have slowed him down. Not really. He came home from the hospital and finished framing the closet he was working on when it happened. Thankfully the pain killers kicked in soon after and he took a break for the day. He was back to work the next day, but had to work very carefully with his new "piercing".
