My Work Order List

[BT Sniper]

Two weeks after my last post here my daughters cat bit my right hand. I didn't think much of it at the time, but it got infected and left me with very limited (near zero) use of my right hand for the last two weeks. I'm on my third week of antibiotics (not counting the two weeks worth I took during flu). Just now getting back to work again in shop, not 100% yet but better. Not really happy with this latest delay as I had just gotten over the flu.

Cat bites are no joke!

My hand swelled up with a lot of pain! Luckily I got on the antibiotics quickly so the infection didn't spread.

I'm in process of moving my girls out of the house and into their own.

Been incredibly busy finding new place for my girls and getting all their stuff packed.

I do intend to complete all my orders here just as soon as possible.

Thank you all for your patience and support.
