No Clogs :(

i can't wear my clogs.....i'm sad! my clogs are my friends (except in summer - hurry summer - clogs just don't look right in shorts & bathing suits!).

here's why ~long story! shortly after T came home from hospital,,,,,i was in J's room watching a movie & knitting (what else!). couldn't find my scissors so was using a new nail clipper - had it on my lap, at some point it must have fallen to the floor - welp, the timer on the stove for dinner beeped, put my sock knitting down, stood up & yep -----stepped right on the file that swings out on the nail clipper. went in ball of my heel a full inch ~ yep, i measured it (after yanking it out) with my trusty knitting tape measure!

meanwhile, the timer is still beeping, i yelled -might have said a bad word - yanked it out - snagged a towel from the linen closet - limped down the hall - turned off timer - took food out - told hubby & T dinner was ready - looked at the floor & saw had tracked blood all over - tightened towel - grabbed Clorox wipes (most aren't familiar with my "quirk"about heme) and proceeded to clean all the tracks!

no, i did not go to the ER (what is my rule on the weekends?). besides, they don't really do anything special for puncture wounds, i yanked it out quicker than they would! i would have spent hundreds of dollars for them to yank, put bandaid & give antibiotic precription-which i would have had to pay extra for-i can now spend those hundreds of dollars on yarn.

down side - my heel is still healing & the clogs make my foot hurt. thankfully, my foot did not have one of my handknit socks on it - i was trying on the Jaywalkers!

fatboy!
