You guys! I've gone 1 full week without injury. Yes!!! Now, I don't want to jinx myself, (like I did with my toe...) but, I'm pretty happy about that fact. ha!
I've gradually been increasing my daily walking/steps. Slowly but surely I am improving every day. I may be sore as hell (back/hip) by bedtime, but, I am in a much better state of mind - and that makes it all worth while. At least, that's what I tell myself. I don't think about the fact that I *may* be overdoing it a bit. Also, I may or may not (read: definitely) have braved my beloved trampoline over the past couple days. Now, I don't jump. I'm barely bouncing at this point. BUT, just getting up on it and moving back and forth makes my little heart happy - so, as long as I'm not in pain as I do it, I'm going to continue (against all the advice from everyone I know, lol!)
Verdict on the toe: broken. Shortly after I blogged last week, I noticed more bruising. My toe had turned a delightful shade of dark red and black & blue. I thought I had better get it checked out. The last thing that I wanted was to wait and then delay healing. Thankfully, it wasn't a true break in the bone. Instead, I broke a piece clean off. Yowsa! The healing time is shorter with this type of break, therefore, I'm looking at 2-3 weeks in that lovely boot. As of today, I am confident I'll be able to get a shoe back on in 2! One great perk of this whole situation has been grossing people out as I send them random photos of my toe. :)
Finally...
Look at that face!! Gosh, I don't think it's possible to love any harder than I do for that pup. Ok, I guess I do love the Demon a little bit more.. (just don't tell baby Blue).
Happy Wednesday!
