Pain and Tears.

Tonight as I swept up a sweater at the bottom of my wood dresser, a splinter drove right into the flesh between my nail and my actual finger. I can't describe the pain. I am shocked by how much pain that little thing can cause. My body started to shake. I quickly grabbed a bottle of peroxide and ran hot water. Not sure why, but that's what I did. Timmy got to the house just as I walking to the bathroom. When he came upstairs, I was kneeling in the bathroom my finger under the hot water, trying to hold back tears. Of course, I see Timmy and those tears can't stay back anymore. I just kept crying for a while and my finger throbbed. It isn't throbbing now, but it still hurts. I can see something brown under my nail. Hopefully it's a little dirt or a bruise and hopefully not a piece of wood. I really can't afford an infection in my nail right now. Silly prayer, but Lord, please take care of my nail.
