Blue Handed [View all]

Today is supposed be the last day that I will visit with my client at the rehabilitation center. My client is suppose to be released to go home tomorrow and then I'll be joining her at her home as usual. This is plan and as long as she doesn't fall again between now and then all will go according to plan.

I got to go to the massive physical therapy gym with her again today. To get to the gym we have to take the elevator one level down.

I was the first one out of the elevator and I hand my hand in the thresh hold of the elevator doors so that the doors would stay open for everyone else trying to get out of the elevator. As I had my right hand in the way of the doors, I was holding my store bought plastic water bottle in my left hand.

My left hand accidentally set off the automatic hand sanitizer station and my plastic water bottle and my hands got all wet from the sanitizer. Of course the paper label on the plastic water bottle is blue so the ink of the label leaked onto both my hands.

I'm about to go soak a cotton ball with some rubbing alcohol to help remove the ink on my skin. I had to share this with the Lounge today because I thought it was hilarious!

Don't worry, I won't have blue hands forever.
