I got a rash from the underlay...
...got my skin caught in between the boards when I was trying to click em together (you can see the rash more in this pic) ...
...and when sawing a plank, the saw somehow managed to jump from the plank I was sawing onto my hand and take away some skin.
Now the real PAINFUL wounds are the ones you can't see, but I can surely feel. My arm muscles are sore, my back hurts so bad I can barely stand straight, and my legs hurt so bad I'm shuffling instead of walking! I look like some hunched back old woman! It's a ruddy joke! But I got PAID so it's not too bad....though tomorrow I will be cussing all and sundry cos the pain will be worse!
I must say though, for all the pain, blood and sweat, the floor looks mighty fly....now it's a shame I didn't think to take a picture of that! Ah well!
Hope you all are having a less painful Saturday!!

Oh my! I surely feel ya pain. Last year I helped my sis lay down some laminate and I couldn't get out of the bed for two days. My arse muscles were on FIYA!!! lol! Po thang, go take some ibuprofen and soak in the tube. You'll be as good as new by Monday.
This is why I don't do manuel labor. I'll probably saw off a finger or two.
Get better.

@ Durty - It was a struggle to get outta bed on Sunday-every part of me hurt! Ibuprofen hasn't work though :(
@ Southern-LMAO!! What's the loss of a finger in the grand scheme of things??
@ Karrie- I am indeed! I'm the Queen of DIY! Anything that needs fixing, or building, I'm the one that gets calle...
@ Ms Lady-Innit though? Jeez!
@ Ms Diva- We can get that done...no probs! I've never done tiling before...so if it comes out a bit crap it's not my fault!! lol!
@ Lil Monie- That is indeed a tat that you see...it's a line from a Bible scripture 'For with God, nothing shall be impossible'....
Gotta respect a woman who can lay laminate flooring :-).
