Another week of healing

Took a hike to Tent Rocks Tuesday, it's fun climbing in the magical rocks but the climb set me back a couple days, foot really throbbed and hurt bad on Wednesday. Walking is getting easier though but am not ready for the 16-mile canyon climb my Son wants to take Saturday.
Had the foot looked at by an orthopedic nurse who confirmed my suspicion of a broken bone, but nothing to do but try not to re-injure and let it heal up.

The Grandkids are Coming!

My oldest son and his family are arriving today from Boston. 2 adults and 2 children, one toddler and one infant. Got 2 cribs and a high chair set up, youngest son and his daughter arrive Sat. We're having a birthday party, wonder which child will have the melt-down? Forgot to mention another 2 pre-schoolers in the mix!

How Long Will It Last

How long will the foot be sore? I teach yoga and yesterday had a reinforcement of the importance of weighting the foot evenly - couldn't balance when I had to due to injury. The pinky toe side of the left foot is trashed. Was able to walk the dogs today.

Anyone else trash their foot like this? Am I looking at 6 weeks of pain?

Diary of a dropped weight plate

How in the world can someone drop a 5-pound weight plate on their foot? Well I did it and the process has been interesting. Sharp, stabbing pain resulted in hours of ice, the next two days couldn't put any weight on it at all. Should I go to the doctor? Decided not to.
