Hi All!

 

I hope everyone had a fun weekend.

Mine was great, but on Sunday I had a bad accident!

 

I had been relaxing at my apartment and doing the wash.

 

As I was bringing in my clothes from outside,

I accidentally tripped over sliding door and hurt my middle toe!

toe                   足の指

The pain was so bad that I shouted out some bad words

and had to sit down for a few minutes.

 

I couldnt sleep at all on Sunday night,

so when Monday morning came around I went to the hospital.

 

The doctor took some x-rays , and said that I had no broken bones.

However, I may have some bruised bones, and this can cause lots of pain.

 

Also, my toe had a blood blister beneath the nail,

so the doctor had to let some blood out!

 

It was gross, but at least it made some of the pain go away.

 

Anyways, Im feeling better now,

and the doctor said it should only take 1 week for my toe to heal.

 

So, if you see me walking funny or hopping around at Imarge with only 1 shoe on,

its because of my toe!

 

Thanks for reading my post.  Hope to see you soon!
