Smushed Finger

I love going to the gym, being sweaty, and then not feeling guilty about what I eat (which happens to be a root beer float at this very minute made with some great ice cream we got at walgreens that tastes pretty close to homemade ice cream)sorry, I get really excited about good food, or any food...anyway, but the whole house rehab thing has really put a damper in my workout time. Since two good friends and I were planning on running a 5K this fall we actually worked really hard this summer, but then one of us moved to stinky ohio and then I fell off the wagon, which incidentally coincided with most of my close returning to that dreaded painted on look! So, good intentions in hand, Kadyn and I headed to the gym after dropping Isaac off at school on Monday morning. Since we had not been there before I went to the desk to find out if I needed to change any info in the system since I am now going to a new location and Kadyn is gazing outside at the balloons that are tied out front. As I turn around to make sure she isn't running around I see a guy open the door and then hear Kadyn screaming! She has her poor little finger smushed in the hinge of this HUGE glass door. I immediately open the door and get her finger out! The desk chick was really nice and got us an ice pack and thankfully the gym is only a few minutes from home so we headed home. Kadyn cried off and on for probably an hour and then I laid her down for her nap. When she got up we utilized our good friend Jon, who happens to be a pediatrician, for a consult and decided to take her into the ER b/c her fingernail had popped out from under her cuticle. It is really great having connections and we were in and out in less than an hour! They decided not to do anything b/c the edges of her fingernail weren't damaged so now we just wait for it to grow out! Now we will see how she does when we return to the gym, hopefully next time will be less eventful!

Poor Kadyn! I hope the gym workout works out for you(no pun intended, lol). But thanks for the reminder for me to cancel my membership! :)
