Knife Sculpture Aerobics

"Yesterday I was making one of my furniture aerobics videos and I was balancing on something sketchy.

Needless to say I fell, and I fell onto my knife sculpture (second pic) because I’m an idiot who leaves life threatening items standing around"

I got multiple wounds on my hands that needed 25 stitches. And tomorrow I’m getting surgery on my left hand since I can’t really move my little finger.

But I’m so lucky this didn’t end worse than this.

I got two minor cuts on my chin and it doesn't take much fantasy to imagine what could have happened.

The irony is of course that I haven't used knives in my vids in ages, because I didn't want to have an accident during a pandemic.

So yeah, might not be posting new videos everyday like I usually do.

So I’ve had my surgery and they stitched together my little finger nerve and tendon which were both cut. I’ll be fine, but it’s going to take a looong time

I’ve been back at the hospital and my arm now looks like one of my sculptures! Full circle!"
