A Boot is Born
Hi all!
I am a runner. A hiker. A single mom of three. An avid mushroom hunter. And many, many other things that generally involve the use of two feet for most people.
Three days ago I managed to trip over a threshold on a boat at a closing reception in Los Angeles for a work conference I was at. It was a glorious fall in a short, white dress providing quite the show for many other attendees. The result was few tears, a one-footed hopping exit from the party, wheelchairs, airport escorts, Uber transfers and lots of ice on the way to back to Wisconsin.
Yesterday, having finally made it back home, I managed to hobble in to my local Urgent Care facility with the assistance of our office pooled crutches only to find out that I have a fracture in my 5th metatarsal and a second degree sprain. Yay! I left with my right foot encased in a big, black boot with instructions to not bear any weight.
As a person who is admittedly horrific at sitting still, I thought I would document my excursions with my new footwear and crutches for your viewing entertainment.
