Change of colour means she is on the mend John, but in the meantime best wishes to her for a speedy recovery and to yourself for ducking and weaving until you get the scissors replaced.

I guess she deserves a new pair of scissors at the very least.

yup, guess so. Jan sales start soon.

Buy a really cheap, usually Chinese, set as a standby. I find them to be sharp and very good value.
