4 toes are confirmed broken. The ER cast has been traded for the big HEAVY plastic boot. It can only be removed when I take a shower. This will be a six week situation. The plastic boot is huge. Wardrobe is affected, especially concerning nighttime bathroom excursion.

I am not a happy camper. DH left for Dallas on Monday. He comes home Thursday. Neighbor is putting mail and newspaper on door handle in the AM.

When I was a teenager, I went with my best friend on a visit to a shut-in to bring food and give the woman a little company.

I am that woman.

Six weeks is a long time at this moment.
