When I was in High School I sat on a pencil and broke the lead off in my ...well....nether-regions :) I ended up in the school nurses' office and to make a long story short..I ended up pulling the sucker out myself. *phew* I feel better now :) Today I'm tackling making sure all the dishes are clean and put away BEFORE I go to bed. This way when I come down for my morning cup of Joe, the kitchen is clean and happy. Okay…time for me to come clean.

Today I’m tackling making sure all the dishes are clean and put away BEFORE I go to bed. This way when I come down for my morning cup of Joe, the kitchen is clean and happy.

It's nice to know you're not the only one. LOL When I searched on Google about the lead in pencils, I saw a ton of people saying they had pencil lead stuck in them.

Colored pencils, mechanical pencils, No. 2 and No. 5 ... we even have furniture with pencil impersonated legs. To balance it out we have crayon drapes. And a big red gum eraser pillow.

I of course was too blame--the older sister, with sharp pencils, jumping on the bed.....so I am always hesitant to give my kids sharp sharp pencils...I usually try and keep the pretty dull. Thanks for your tackle--a tackle of fear!

When I was younger I stepped on a pencil that was in a grabage bag on the floor. It went into my foot and I stll have the coloring from it. My other foot I stepped on a toy dinosaur that must have been hungry. I had 5 different bite marks. I have a fear of pencils and little kids also.

I'm more afriaid of them poking their eye with a freshly sharpened pencil. Not to add to your paranoia... ;) Way to conquer!
