All kinds of feet & toes

I am blogging today because my husband rocks. He is loaning me a monitor for my desk top computer. My post yesterday was clearly pathetic. I am saving for a lap top. I really want one and will keep the desktop for the kiddos. BUT purchasing a new monitor would use some of my laptop fund.

My friend Crystal over at What are we Doing? is sending me a monitor and it should be here tomorrow. She is wonderful...really wonderful!


And so my blogging addiction can go on ;)


Speaking of Crystal, she recently launched her photography website Happy Feet. She is a fabulous photographer, and has been taking amazing pictures for many years. If you are here in Texas or visiting and want a superb job...call her up!

Speaking of feet, mine are not too happy lately




My apologies in advance for the feet about to be shown in this post. If you have a fear of feet...hit the big red X on the top right hand corner. This is pretty graphic.

I have never lead anyone to believe that I am coordinated. I did play some sports in high school, and enjoy working out, (did I say enjoy?) but that is about it. I hurt myself all the time, and it seems that since I have had children I just get more off balance. Ha...I know what you are thinking...stop it now. Off balance.




When I was about 4 months (Feb 2009) pregnant with Hayden we moved Layla's room from what is now the playroom/den to her new room. We were transforming our guest bedroom into the nursery and just flip flopping the whole house.

We moved a sofa into the playroom, and I acted as though I did see it. It is a large sofa...salmon in color and really hard to miss. But yes I did manage to slam my foot into it. REally hard. So hard that I was limping for weeks!!! No joke. and you know how pregnant women waddle anyway. So that took FOREVER to heal. I didn't seek medical treatment even though I know for sure I had two broken toes, the pinkie and ring toe. Ha...ring toe.





The day before the 4th of July 2009 I kicked another sofa. This one would be large, leather and brown. Again...same left foot. REALLY?!?!? I couldn't really even enjoy the 4th of July festivities. I wasn't able to get on the water slide with all the other wild adults. So I just sipped my drink which really helped with the pain. So it took about 8 weeks to heal, and I finally felt great again. I wore tennis shoes and could do the 30 Day Shred again...YAY me.




Until this past weekend.


Normal

I went out with the girls, and had a fabulous time. We got home and I forgot there was a sink/cabinet in Shelby's guest bathroom. I mean who puts a sink in the bathroom. Yep...kicked it and once again I am hobbling around. I tried to do the 'Shred' this morning...nope. Not happening.



My toe is really deformed. It kind of just hangs over in left field. I think I may have to get it checked this time. I hurt the SAME foot. Not cool.

NOT normal

A pair of 'steel toe' boots are in my immediate future ;)
