I am back to elevating my foot

Yes...I did it to myself. The other day when I did too much started it all. Then I did a lot of cooking...I love to cook and I missed doing it. At least I have a lot of leftovers to use for a few days.


My foot and ankle are terribly swollen and now I have to elevate and ice it as much as possible. I just wanted to come by and say Hi and update you. Just when I was starting to catch up on things, I am going to be scarce again. I will stop by as much as possible.


So, here I go...off to the couch with my knitting and crocheting. I decided to try to knit again. Just a scarf, but I have to start somewhere.


Take care all...


See you soon


Grace

Oh Grace! Please take it easy and get better soon. I know how hard it is to recover from something like that and it is so easy to overwork yourself and not realize what you're doing is a bad thing. Take care and get better.

Gosh, please feel better. Know we are thinking about you. When you get better lets meet for lunch again. Call me when you think you will be feeling up to it, until then take it easy and listen to what your foot is telling you "TAKE IT EASY"

Take care of yourself this time, Grace; when you feel better, I'm sending a limo to get you and the driver will have my looong list of things to do to give you...

Hugs,

Thanks, Margie...don't wait with your bunions. There is a much easier correction that can be done if you don't wait too long like I did. It is 2 week recupertion and no cast is involved.


Wearing better shoes will help as well as orthodics. But, we do inherit the foot structure that can cause bunions.


TAke care of those feet.

Thanks to you too, Lori. I am trying to stay off as much as possible and I am doing better already. I just can't wait to get back to everything.

Hey, Deb...how does next week sound? I am always up to a salad and I still have to eat. I better get out as much as I can now, since the second surgery is scheduled for Dec 5th.


Let's get in touch.

I would love to have a limo and do the things for you. That limo would sure come in handy when I have the right foot done...I won't be able to drive. Think I am going crazy now...wait until then!!


You take care too.


Grace
