Go, Go, Gadget Girl!

Me and this little guy have been good friends these past couple of days.


Havel's Ultra Pro Seam Ripper.
A friend got it for me for Christmas and those little blue handled seam rippers are now a distant memory.  Seriously, this thing cuts like butta.  I love it!

P.S.  I have a little girl who got 5 [count that: F-I-V-E] vaccination shots today.  And didn't even cry [She got the crying done in the car about 15 minutes before hand.]  Still, I was a proud mamma :)

    That was the one thing I hated about being a pediatric nurse. Giving multiple immunizations.. hated it...

    I used to have the kids blow bubbles while they were getting their shots. They didn't tense up and they got to keep the bubbles...

    I can't imagine getting 5 vaccinations in one day! It's just a fancy word for a shot. It's a challenge for me to get one.

    I have the same ripper, that razor-like blade is a dream! I almost look for excuses to un-sew.

    They make ripping seams a dream. I've used one at the shop. It really does cut like butta. : )

    I love those seam rippers, but hate it when I miscalculate and slice my finger!

    Thanks for sharing your gadget....I have seen those before, now I know.

    That is great about your daughter....my mother said I always caused her grief when it came to shots.

    That looks like a wicked weapon!!!

    OUCH on the five vaccines. Too bad they can't be given in one shot.
