Owie on the foot!

I just cracked a lateral metatarsal years ago and it was 18 months before I could walk (hobble) over rough ground w/o pain. Can’t believe you are doing much of anything , if it was recent.

Tip: get yourself some wide soft-sided shoes, like these from SAS http://www.sasshoes.com/main/view_styles.php?catid=2&prodid=47 for the first few months. If you broke the instep, a pair of their loafers might be better. I found mine at Shoe Box. They are great for finding wide widths.

And congrats on the beau, girl! Sounds like you got a winner! Of course, we know that _he_ did!

I LOVE The Shoe Box! Thanks for the excuse to have someone take me there! I broke the fifth metatarsal on my right foot. You know - the one ‘we’ Ballerinas always break? LOL! I’d trust them to fit me with something perfect.

The Beau is a wonderful blessing in my life. He’s off to Bear Camp for the long weekend, but he folded my laundry* after dinner before he left. A Prince Among Men. :)

*And that is NOT ‘code’ for anything other than being kind, LOL!
