Thread: Prop-related injury!

Tweet

I think I wrenched my back working on the floor of my garage. I'm building graveyard columns for my fence out of cardboard (and they look REALLY good! ) and I was restacking the bricks I used to weigh down the columns while the glue set and now my back hurts!!!

I don't have time for this - darn it I have more props to build and tons of setup still to do!

Anybody else sustain any damage yet?

Yes sort of ... I did a really stupid thing in trying to attach fingernails to the hands of a witch I was bulding ... well I thought that superglue would be a good idea ... didnt stick my fingers together quite but got the glue all over a finger and thumb. Now when I am painting using acrylics .. it really bonds to the glue on my fingers. Give a WHOLE new meaning to having a green thumb !!! lol...

You can be Ms Quasimodo this year.

Slicing foam on the floor with a butcher knife... slipped... hit the side my shin to the bone.

Duct taped it with Neosporin and worked for another hour. My wife nearly killed me.

I was bent over painting and when I went to stand straight up wow the back pain. Can't wait to set the yard up that's gonna be a back breaker for sure.

I pulled a couple mucels putting up wall panels. The painful part is I don't have time to let them rest, so I work through the pain.

I've learned that even after you set the glue gun down for a min and pick it back up, it can still drip. I have a burn on my knee to prove it.

No pain, no gain I guess

Got the first hot glue burn bubble on the tip of my finger about an hour ago... I am sure there are more to come!

i hate it when that happens.........

Count me in with the back pains this year as well...was trying to wrap some lights around a pole on the house and leaned just a little further than I should've...my back was sore for days!

Ah, the pain and injuries we endure for our favorite holiday!
