And now. a broken toe!

[Stonehead]

take care of yourself.

No chance. I've just spent several hours digging and carting damp soil as I build berms to slow the run-off from our hill. In the process, I managed to hit the side of my steel-toed wellie with the shovel and, yes, the toe cap doesn't protect the little toe at all...

Yowwwwww! And various imprecations.

Cue the boys: "Pa, you really shouldn't swear. It's rude."

And does small boy remember his words when you found the exploded pumpkins?

Sypathy on the toe. A friend of mine did something similar at my house. I actually heard the crunch. Not nice.

Shove some cotton wool or something round it when you go outside - before putting on the socks or something - that was it will be a wee bit more cushioning for the next time you bash it one.

Ouch, know how much that hurts! Kicked my steel Kirby vacuum cleaner once, when I dared to look at my toes, the one next to little toe was at a right angle over the little one! My hubby and mates nearly wet themselves laughing when they saw it - so much for sympathy!! Hope it doesnt give u too much trouble!

Ouch - know the feeling - you have my sympathy. I once had a little dog who became over excited every time the door bell rang - hed run down the hall way and wet himself. One day, as I ran after him, bare foot, down the laminated hall with a paper towel in my hand I slipped in his wee and hit my foot off the door frame!! I went off to casualty and once the Doc had stopped laughing at me he told me there was nowt he could do, to take a couple of pain killers and stop wearing flip flops!! Lol
Although - since I was single at the time it was a good source of symapthy from nice looking young men who offered to kiss it better - I didn't tell them how I'd done it till afterwards!! lol
