Another lesson learned - never try to cut the tangled bobbin thread from the spool by using sharp scissors - it slipped and punctured my index finger, not once but twice. Trying to hurry too much

Sounds like you need to take a break from anything mechanical for a few days. Hope you heal quickly.

Scissors are so sharp, hope your feeling better, and your pride not hurt too much!! I got too close to the screw that holds in the needle and took a massive piece out of myself. It hurt soooooh much!!

dlonna, it is never easy to get puncture in your index finger and still work - you whole hand feels every tiny move. Hope you feel better soon. *4U

ooooohhhhh ouch! I have done that dionna & then to make matters worse bled on what I was doing. the little curved clippers r the culprits usually. Put iodine or TAO on it so u won't get an infection. *4U

Slow - what is that - seems I have to go 100 miles an hour to get anything done in the evenings after work. Thanks for the recommendations.

it just hurts - neosporin works wonders. Hurts to type some though - and that is about what I do almost all day!
