Can honestly say I feel your pain, having suffered a partially
dislocated middle finger (envision it pointing backwards toward back of
hand instead of toward the palm -- ouch!!) trying to field a line drive
in baseball. Best part was (not!!) everyone insisted on it staying that
way until after drive to hospital, wait in ER waiting room, wait in ER
examining room, wait in x-ray department, wait for technician to read
x-ray, another wait in ER waiting and exam rooms, then wait for
orthopedic consult, before "snapping" it back into place. Actually the
best part was the almost complete relief of pain once it was back where
it belonged.

Hope you recover quickly. The roof and ponds look great.
