6-8 Weeks Of Vacation

[wolftat]

I was just given a 6-8 week vacation from work. All I had to do was to break a couple of bones in my right hand. Now of course it also means that while I have the time off to turn, I won't be able to. The bright side of this is that I am going to New Orleans for a couple of days and taking a cruise out of there in April and I don't have to put in a request for the time off or use up any of my vacation days. I have to figure out if I can turn with my left hand, one handed....should be fun trying. I wonder if I can break a few more bones and get the summer off too (No help needed with that, thanks).

If anybody could turn with one hand , I'm sure it would be you . I don't think I want to ask how you broke your hand !! I have a good guess though . I want you to have a good time on your vacation . NO WORK ! But , take your laptop with ya . I might need something ! :biggrin: Take care , Neil .

 

[bitshird]

Ouch, sorry about the broken bones, that's a terrible way to get a vacation, nearly as bad as cutting off fingers.

 

[Dalecamino]

BTW , all joking aside , I know first hand what that's like . I was amazed how far skin can stretch from swelling . I feel for ya man !

Wolftat, you and I need to have a private chat about what you could be doing with that time off..... I'm sure you'd be very interested in what I have to offer..... PM me if you're interested.

 

[LEAP]

I bet you can still cast. Think of all the blanks you can make! Hope it gets better quick, thats a crapy way to get time off.

We are right across the pond from New Orleans. Drop by and say hello when you get here.

And here we were counting on your friction polish on Corian demo at the March meeting. :biggrin: :redface:
:at-wits-end: I was looking forward to that. Maybe Charlie will pick up the slack!

Turn a couple of blanks and I will give it a try, I just can't turn anything yet but I tried. It hurt like hell and I got yelled at for it.

 

[amosfella]

You just have to make the tools part of your arm now.....

 

[johnnycnc]

Neil, hope you heal up okay. sorry to hear that.
do enjoy the vacation,though !!

 

[MarkHix]

I've broken a few myself. I feel for you. I hope it was not your margarita hand.

Careful !!! Tread cautiously , Neil has a good memory .

 

[NewLondon88]

[nava1uni]

And one GOOD hand :biggrin:

Dumb way to get time off Neil but whatever works I guess :biggrin:

 

[Ligget]

Neil sorry to hear of your injury, look after yourself!

 

[CSue]

Hey, Neil, sorry to hear you broke your hand.

Not to encourage you but I broke my left wrist few years ago and found a tool that I could use rt hand and rt shoulder to brace. I just couldn't NOT TURN. (Oh, yeah, and I turned sitting down. Only way the shoulder could help. )

Hope your recovery is swift!

 

[Scotty]

Neil Sorry to hear of your injury. Hope everythings heals. I am sure a little boat time will speed up the healing process. Can you catch a fish with one hand?
