Busted Foot


Ever hear of the saying, "No good dead goes unpunished."? I feel like that fits me right now. I spent the week running errands for me and for few friends, I helped take care of this and that, stayed up late getting things done, offered up a shoulder and sympathetic ear. I got it all done along with the piles of dishes and the hill of laundry. No complaints, I'd do it again.
The downside to it all for me was when I went to take out some pieces of Corningware from the cupboard. Three fell out, two of them broke. One of them sprayed some shattered pieces my way and it hit my foot. The point of contact was something out of a movie. The piece hit my foot along the length of one of the smaller veins in my foot. It made a slit about 1/4"-1/3" long. Not very long. But, it also went in enough to be considered a puncture wound. A quick trip to the emergency room got me 4 stitches. *sigh*
On the plus side, no one else got hurt and no glass was found in my foot.
Today I was able to walk with minimal pain and a lot of discomfort. My foot is a bit swollen and many movements due cause pain, as to be expected.
I am trying to be careful of what I eat  so as not to gain too much weight. It is difficult because I find that I am having to rely on others for the bulk of my meals. Am hoping to find some upper body workouts I can do to help alleviate the problem.
