January 15, 2008 I got a fabulous tattoo on my foot which says “joy” as a reminder of 1) finding joy in everysituation 2) my time in Egypt and remembering there is a bigger world out there and 3) my middle name, stemmed from Grammie.
This is all well and good until about two months ago when I have this insane sharp pain under the knobby guy on the outside of my right foot. Parallel to the heel when I step a certain way it feels like someone is taking a knife and laying my heel/side of my foot open. No fun.
So we all know I’m kinda short and cupboard builders tend to forget these things since they’re men and they’re tall. So I was putting dishes away kneeling on the counter. As per usual I jumped down…well this time I really did something awful. The ball of my foot swelled up with a big knot and I couldn’t walk…more no fun. Seth wouldn’t get me ice because he thought I was faking it or blowing it out of proportion. Until the next day when for the first time since the incident I look at my foot whilst showing it to the staff and I have a huge bruise on the ball and throbbing pain. He then apologized and said “Geeze, I didn’t think it was that bad!”
My foot bringeth no “joy” but pain…lots of pain.
