Just jammed my finger in the ironing board. The nail is blackening by the minute. Thanks for asking.

I've managed to go about 4 years or so without crushing one of my fingers. The last time was pretty bad: a group of friends were piling into a minibus/large taxi to go to a gig, and my girlfriend decided to slam the sliding door shut onto my hand. It was pretty unpleasant.

The nail blackened just like yours, but didn't pop off immediately. For a month or so it sort of dried out and went yellow, then one day it peeled off to reveal a healthy new one underneath.

So good luck with that, mate.

Sorry to hear

Everything is good on the surface but underneath I'm stressed, anxious and lonely.

I hope you are alright, you are not alone here.

Nearly melted by the heat, but had a great sleep! Going to start working on a new task at work today.

Really hoping the spray kills the fleas I got from the neighbors; my legs are getting chewed to bits.

My husband and I have been sitting on our patio since a little before sunset sipping on cocktails. After the sun went down we started watching movies on our patio projector, enjoying the weather, and playing with our dogs. It's a new day now, but we're still out here so it's been a great day so far.

Return to office just started and I'm already sick of it. I mean I quite literally feel like I'm getting an ulcer. I didn't plan well enough ahead and I absolutely have to work from home or request last minute PTO. Either way I'll probably get a talk from my manager about how I'm not following their wishy-washy rules.

Since the last windows update, my laptop mouse cursor is occasionally freezing and jumping around. Driving me crazy.

Tried changing mouse yet? Perfect time to try one of those ergo ones

Actually by laptop mouse I mean the laptop touchpad. I don't know whether the problem is the windows update or some malware. So thinking of resetting my pc. Now that will be time consuming.

Anxiety's making a mess of me but I know the good habits I need to start doing again to help this pass. Still it's really annoying.
