Isn’t that how the saying goes? But what if it is broken?
Over the weekend I decided to join a co-worker and her family at Beaver Lake. It was my first time there and we had a wonderful time. However, at some point during the long, ROCKY walk from the dock to the car I slipped a few times and I believe I either kicked a rock or a rock fell on my middle toe.
It hurt a bit at the time but that’s about all the thought I gave to the injury until I woke up this morning and put my foot on the ground. Holy Smokes! Over night my toe has turned a reddish purple and is now causing me terribly pain.
No, I haven’t gone to the doctor yet because EVERYONE that I have mentioned this to tells me the same thing: there is nothing a doctor can do and the best remedy is to tape it straight to a pop sickle stick and wait out the pain.
I am following that advice but I am not very good at waiting and I am certainly not known for my high tolerance of pain – so this ought to be an interesting week.
Hope your week is off to a better start.
