Nearly four months after the blister from hell took possession of my big toe causing me weeks of pain, then an open wound, then an infection, then more pain, then a scab, then a scar, today I finally got a long-awaited pedicure! A lovely post-down-pouring-rain trail run (which involved "running" knee deep in water across a creek and skipping over, across and through many mud puddles) this afternoon with Abby and Brent presented the perfect opportunity for a pedicure. My feet had been soaking in my water-logged shoes for an hour so there was no need to soak at the nail salon.

A cautionary note: this picture is deceiving because it make it look as if I have a full complement of toenails. From the left, toes #1, #5 and #7 are without toenails. Pedicurists are miracle workers!
(I will save us all the agony by not posting the before pictures, nor any of the pictures of the blister.)
I don't like feet.
ReplyDeleteWhat was your research about? Who would send a picture?
Much improved from earlier today :) I like the color choice, too!
