A pain in the............toe?


Ignore the terrible pedicure!
Just notice the swollen, discolored little toe.
The photo doesn't show how exactly how discolored it is or how it "feels"!
Amazing that such a small thing on one's body can mess up a persons daily routine.
Yes it hurts. No I cannot bend it.
So I'm wondering how fun it will be this week to try to take the kids to the pool. I can walk on it so today I'm going to try to go to a store and try to find a pair of those water shoes to wear to support it and keep it from getting bumped.
I'm also very irritated that when we got the Wii three weeks ago I started the Wii Active 30 day challenge exercise program. I'm three weeks into it. I plan to try to do what I can but I think the jogging in place part will have to wait!
Not to mention that my leg aches along with the foot and it gets difficult to find comfortable positions to sit with your leg elevated all the time!
Well, I've said before that we need to focus on the blessings and not the negative. So I am blessed that I didn't break the foot or worse.
Hey, my hubby is at this very moment in the kitchen making a complete egg and potato breakfast and won't let me get up to help him. That's a blessing right!
