Decorating disaster

Saturday 17th December

So today we headed off to deck our halls with boughs of holly (and mostly the front garden with lots and lots of lights) but at the first stop M encountered a seasonal hazard and managed to poke himself in the eye with the Christmas tree. Harmless enough you would think, but not in this case. First stop the first aid station in Home Depot (B&Q to our UK readers), next stop Frazer pharmacy, third stop the "minute clinic" in Paoli and then Immediate Care minor injuries clinic in Berwyn - prognosis a scratched cornea with 0.5cm (3/16th " for our US readers) diameter chunk removed....... Well looking on the upside now we know how to access emergency care, get a prescription (and even get the prescription refunded when you have found all the right insurance cards). The tree remained netted for the rest of the day as a punishment! A family Christmas memory to treasure.
