Land Weed eater

[MtnGal]

In all the years I've been weed eating I've never come in contact with the cord...until today.

It's not even enough to draw more than a couple drops of blood, more like a scrape. Boy, it sure does sting!

Lesson learned, take my finger away from the trigger when changing positions.

Thankful because I've heard some horror stories, all like me, not paying attention.

I also have a PSA about these things. Wear a GOOD pair of safety glasses when in use. I was popped on the side of my glasses this weekend and am green across the bridge of my nose. And with a small cut I might add. Thank you for sharing this story with all those who may believe removal of an object from their eyeball might be a great way to spend the weekend. I had JUST been without them and gone in the house and mounted them on my face. Thank goodness for that wee voice.
