I said sure, but not with one over 50 years old. The doctor asked if I couldn’t replace the ring. But somehow by using a lot of liquid soap and cold water I got it off before they found their ring cutters.

It takes a lot of soaping to get it off at the best of times and this wasn’t the best of times.

Cracked in several places, but no bones floating around. The girl who does them says, “Oh yeah, it’s broken. Me, I’m worrying about bleeding on their floor. More sick people come in and have my husband worrying about catching something. Thank goodness they opened one recently here in our town. So after waiting around to be sure they couldn’t work out a way to take care of me, the nice woman sends me off to the Urgent Care Treatment place. But their x-ray technician is off for the day. The PA looks at it and says she can’t stitch it up without an x-ray to be sure it’s not broken. And there was that problem of not stopping bleeding. Those crazy sites kept saying if it looked this or that way (and it did), go to the doctor. Isn’t that what you always do? Google it to find answers.

So I googled how to treat mashed fingers. But the mashed open cut keeps bleeding and it looked pretty bad and I do depend on my fingers for a lot. Think I can just bandage it up and all will be hunky dory. Show it to my husband in a bid for sympathy. Got to get in those steps! I put peroxide on it. So back to the house I come, after I finish my walk, of course. Blood dripping in the mud and everything. I just know I ended up on the ground with a nasty, very smashed finger. Somehow my finger got smashed by the weights I was carrying. I was zooming right along, carrying my weights to give my walk a little extra oomph. But he was game, even if he took a few shortcuts. Oscar’s arthritis was giving him fits but he came along, limping a bit. Meaning, of course, that plans often go awry. What is it they say? Best laid plans of mice and men. I’d had a pretty good morning writing and was looking forward to a good afternoon getting more words down.

And nearby communities had it worse than us.īut then the storm passed on to the southeast and so, as I am a dedicated walker, I put on my old shoes and headed out with my dog, Oscar.

First off this morning, March definitely came in like a lion around here with storms and winds. But, to be fair, Microsoft announced the retirement date over a year ago.Some days it doesn’t pay to take a walk. Engadget reported that half of Japanese businesses and some government agencies never made the switch away from IE, so the death of Internet Explorer may require some scrambling. All saved preferences will transfer over. Edge also has an Internet Explorer mode to view websites that aren’t compatible with other browsers. Microsoft is, of course, still in the game, even if Internet Explorer is officially “dead.” A wistful blog post from the company, which we saw thanks to AP News, also includes the nitty-gritty you need to know if you still use IE or visit websites that require it for proper viewing. If you try to use the browser, you’ll get directed to the Microsoft Edge browser instead. All of that just to pull up the latest Geocities page using Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator (which retired back in 2008). And, of course, that dial-up modem buzzing away still haunts us. Those of us who were there during the early days of the internet may remember downloading IE via CD-ROM onto a computer shared with the whole household. But could surprise many people who didn’t know that the 1995 relic was still even around. Microsoft has officially retired its browser, Internet Explorer.
