Careful when praying

***Warning, if blood makes you doozy, don't read this one***

This morning I woke up to my three alarms (that's how many it takes me now), and kneeled down to say my prayers. Unfortunately, there was a shard of glass I missed before, but it didn't miss my foot. It hit right between the big toe and the next toe over. It hurt, but I pulled it out, thinking it was just a little blood, and went back to saying my prayer, but then realized there was something wrong. I opened my eyes again to see a lot of blood on the carpet and my foot. I guess I hit some sort of artery, the blood was pulsing out a bit. So I ran to the bathroom, blood trailing, and after about a minute of putting my finger on the wound, it finally clotted. I cleaned the bathroom (tile) and hall (laminate wood) flooring, but I still need to clean up my bedroom carpet. A friend told me something that will get it right up. Hopefully.
Here's my injured foot. The white on the side is from my painting my kitchen. As usual, I get more paint on myself than the walls.


So moral of the story - uh, definitely still pray, and kneeling is always good, so I guess, make sure your room is clean before you kneel to say a prayer, or it might hurt you.
