New shoe and ....

What a week. Moving on, Lisa and I decided to get a Henna tattoo...

I chose this design and opted for the standard brown. I took this before it was fully set so it is a little darker now.

Lisa chose this and in navy blue. It was fun and we are already thinking of the next time! I did not look at others once I found this one. We had much laughter after we got them.. trying to not bend our wrists, not to touch them or let anything touch them.... Finally after 3 hours we washed off the hardened ink and voilà...we were happy.

Finally saw the podiatrist on Monday...

this is how I walked out. Alan of course just laughed as did Lisa when she saw it. Surprisingly, Murphy just sniffed and licked it once and now ignores it. I am not sure how long it will be on. Monday I will have an MRI to see where the damage is then we can decide if surgery and which surgery. I never do it easy. In the meantime I am to stay off my feet as much as possible and keep it up. the good news is that it comes off at bedtime. Then Voltaren gel. Tonight I may try a Lidocane patch. At least I am not boring to have around!!!! I need to find something to wear on the left foot to balance when walking. Maybe my Sketchers will work. Sewing...ahhh, I will try to use my left foot on the presser foot... will be interesting. 

The Monsoon struck south east of us...quite a mess and damage. Still, it would be good to get some rain. The garden is not looking too happy even with the irrigation on. The days and sun are very hot. Alan has been doing his best to keep it looking nice. 

I have spent time reading...a real book. I still enjoy holding a book and flipping pages. The book is Trejo by Danny Trejo. I like him as an actor so when I saw an interview about the book I ordered it right away. It is hard to put down. It may not be for everyone, but it is how his life has been. 

Time for the foot to go up and back to reading...almost finished with the book! Glad you stopped by today. When my foot is really hurting, the blog takes a backseat. thank you for your kind words and for your friendship.
