Day 130: bandaids

Hi again,
Today I am thankful for something so simple yet so useful which is bandaids. I am accident prone so I have definitely had my share of spills and today I was in need of a bandaid and thought what a wonderful thing it is to have on hand. It may not seem like much but when you don't have any on hand, they become that much more amazing. I have had a few times where I had to use what I had on hand and so I grabbed a kleenex and scotch tape. lol doesn't work so well. lol I thought I would share a link to the history of the bandaid for anyone interested in looking at it. It was invented in 1920 by Earle Dickson. Here is a link to about.com http://inventors.about.com/od/bstartinventions/a/bandaid.htm
Here is a link to a Wikipedia site which says essentially the same thing but it provides a bit more information I think. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Band-Aid
