There are days, that we awake and just figure our day will be as normal as the one before or perhaps the one after. We go about our daily routine in kind of a robot mode, doing as we do daily. As the day progresses and the cawfee is settling in, the feeling of strength and revival sets it, so you proceed. But here is the thing, when you proceed, you just have to make sure as you put one foot in front of the other that there is nothing standing in the way of your next step, like for a instance a chair with metal legs.
OUCH! FUCK! DAMN! SHIT!
I gotta tell ya, when my toe hit that metal leg of that goddamn chair, the stars that are so sparkly at night made an entrance in my brain, and they were not so sparkly, they were more like dull sharp stars hitting me in many directions. Once I collected myself and the stars had vanished, I looked down to make sure I still had a toe, and thank goodness I did. I hobbled over to my desk to see the actually damage. Well it was in one piece and I could bend it, but very sore to the touch, so I let it be.
By days end, I now had a purple toe (and no it was not my toe polish), and with each hour that went by the purple got darker. I wrapped the brusied toe to the toe next to it to try and keep it straight. The pain was dull, so I refused pain pills, however 10mg of ambien was taken instead of 5mg.
As the days past my poor toe continued on its path of turning different shades of purple. I tried all week to protect my toe of any other damaging items. Until Saturday nite, when I had forgotten the pain that so took over my body, I had the gall to hit the same goddamn toe on my computer desk leg.
OUCH! FUCK! DAMN! SHIT!
The good news tho, is the leg on my computer desk is not metal, its wood, so the pain was not as severe. I was the happiest person on the earth and could have done a happy dance that it was wood. Hmmm, actually could not do a happy dance with my sore toe, but you get the picture.
Now I just have to figure out how to get thru the week without hitting my toe on any other item in my path. This is not a easy task, but I am def up to the challenge. So please wish me luck, as I sure do need it.
:O)

Yeah I am doing the Snoopy Dance!!! Wohooo I got first! Yipee Yi Yahhhay!!!
Morning Glories!
Carol I feel your Pain! I have felt your pain literally!
Several years ago I caught my little toe on a cedar chest we use as a coffee table it hurt so bad the nausea hit fast and furious and the throbbing was that Fred Flinstone flashing red twice the size throbbing. I looked down and my poor toe was pointing to the side not straight, straight out to the side. As I lay down cussing on the couch trying not puke. I called Mr. Lynn D. He came running I kept yelling at him to push it back in.
My son came to see what the commotion was all about and took one look and ran to the bathroom. Mr. Lynn D looked at me and said I am not touching that!!! I will take you to the hospital.
After several hours in a waiting room the toe turned purple then black and blew up to 3 times it size. They diagnosed a broken toe. I KNEW that! What did they do. Nothing. The said to ice it and handed me a walking boot.
The kicker to this story I wore the boot for six weeks the toe got better. I removed the boot and all was well. UNTIL I CAUGHT THE LITTLE TOE ON MY LEFT FOOT ON THE SAME DAMN CHEST!!! Broke that sucker too!
Thank god I had a walking boot already to go.
PS I loved your toe pictures! Muwaaaah!
Wakey Wakey everyone! Come on I have a pot of Hazelnut coffee on! Can you smell it??? It is sitting on the side board. MMMMMMMMM Rise and shine!
Good Morning!!
CAROL: YEEOOWWCH!! Oh how I hate when that happens! I usually hook my little toe around the leg of the chair or table. If you haven't heard me swear..be around when THAT happens...I'll surprise you with the swear words I know! ALL of them!
I've never broken a toe but I've lost toenails doing this. I once asked Mr Z if he wanted to keep the toenail I lost so he could clone me one day..he said NO!! LOL!!
My family used to call this injury.."doing a hooker"..I'm not kidding. We would hear a scream then cussing coming from the other room..and we'd look at each other and say "Sounds like Dad did a hooker.." ;)
Good luck this week CAROL...I hope your toes stay safe and ya don't do anymore hookers! :D
LYNND: Congrats on FIRST!
Omg..that was painful to read! I hope you got rid of that offending cedar chest, or at least moved it out of toe range!
How is your eye feeling today? Any better?
From Area 51:
DIANNE: Congrats on the win..I think I've covered all modes of communication now! ;)
Morning, Lynn D and Zona!
Carol: Yuck! I've never broken a toe, but like all of us, I've stubbed a toe many a time.
I HATE fucking stubbing my toe! Especially because there's that slight delay before the full onslaught of the pain, like the body's gathering itself to punish you.
I HATE fucking stubbing my toe!
OMG Bear and Zona you are cracking me up!
Tell us how you really feel Whabby! There is a delay and it is like a perfect pain storm gathering!
Zona Geeez what's wrong with Mr. Z a toenail is true love and he should save it with any teeth you may have had pulled and the growth from your neck! :)
Morning BEAR!
Are you sure you don't hate stubbing your effing toe? ;)
LYNND: He didn't want the teeth either.. ;)
So far...no neck growths..whew! ;)
BEAR: Maybe you hate stubbing the eff outta your toe? ;)
Top Ten for DIANNE!! WooHoo!!
No, I haven't stayed up all night farming. I went to bed at 2:30 but I had to set my alarm to change two of my players on Fantasy Football before someone else grabbed them and that had to happen at 7:01AM. I guess now I know what I do since I have retired. I m doing so much for the world with FF and Farmtown/land...what a woman I have turned into!! gulp! I have almost forgotten I have grandkids (not really).
My husband is still in a boot/shoe for two more weeks. He fell down the stairs about a month ago and they thought he broke his boot. He didn't and had to do ice, etc., but it wasn't healing so back to the doctor. He fractured his big toe so every time he would walk it would fracture it more so he is in a boot. I haven't done toes but broke my right and left foot at different times in the last years. Once during PT of my knee replacement. That was not good because I had to do knee rehad on a mat instead of on my leg/knee.
Ok, well back to bed for me before I give myself a moment to go and "peek" at my farm. good night for a few hours.
Hello LYNN, ZONA, WHABBY and hope your toe heals soon,CAROL>
One more note on toes....My mom used to break her toes a lot. The doctor told her to quit wearing sandals and flip flops especially the flip flops around the house. Just passin' on the old docs advice.
So...this is what I got out of the blog:
Carol likes wood~
A good morning to all hooters! Is this the Great Toe Tragedy I've been reading about?
My apologies, but this blog and the comments are the funniest thing I've read in a long time. What's wrong with all of you that furniture is spontaneously attacking you?
Tina as usual, your mind is in the gutter. Nice Catholic girl, my arse!
Good morning and congrats on first Lynn!
I am feeling a lot better today. I got up at 6:00 a.m. and went to exercise. I think I sweated out my little funk.
And NO: Tina, my little funk was not pregnancy! I am too old for dat sheet.
Carol: Loved the blog and thought it was too funny and cute too. It is amazing the blogs we have on here. I really love it. :) One of the best, for sure.
Bonacchi: Thanks for worrying about me. I really appreciate it.
Dianne: I am doing Yoville, Farmtown and Farmville and it is making me a mad woman. Also, of course, I am the biggest Mafia Wars player ever. I feel your pain. I had to wait for my vanilla cupcakes to get done last night in Yoville even though I felt like crud. I still stayed up and got them out of the oven and started a yellow cake...haha.
I keep thinking I should spend my time on something productive, like ebay or writing blogs..then I go back to clicking on little squares to harvest my fake farm.
Bebbi, how are you feeling today?
LOL! Lynn D, you are right! The perfect (pain) storm!
And who's the captain of the fishing boat?
Bear~ for some reason.....i keep thinking ur fucking ur toe~ is that even possible? :)~
Congrats LynnD! I don't drink coffee, but the hazelnut sounds yummy!
Carol & fellow toe hookers, OUCH!! and what Whabby said!!!
I have stubbed my toe on my bed leg every time I change the bedding! It doesn't matter how careful I swear I am going to be, I do it anyway!
Nothing broken ...yet. The only thing I have broken is my nose, from a skiing accident. Who knew I should have just "sat down" instead of falling face forward??
bbl I am looking at kitchen cabinets today.
Donna, yes the carpenter is a young hunk! :):)
LynnD Congrats on making it here first! I hope you didn't stub your toe on the way in!
Carol I feel your pain! I hate hitting my toe like that. It hurts sooooo much! You have very pretty toes, btw. It looks like I have the same color of polish on mine.
Bear ROFLMAO! You are so right! There is a delay before the pain hits. I guess that's because the toe is the body part farthest away from the brain. You get a second to dread the pain that is on the way.
Waving at Zona, Bonach, Tina, Dianne and Bebbi. I hope everyone is feeling good today.
Mary Waving at you! You came in while I was typing.
Shirley Please mark that down! I got 25!
Happy Tuesday Owls.
OUCH Carol, I know how much that hurts. I have broken the same toe and taping it to the next one is all you can do. Lynn, I didn't even get a boot when I went to the doc. They tell you not to wear sandals, but it hurts too much to wear closed shoes. It even hurt to go bearfoot. I hope it heals quickly for you.
Gotta go harvest now, before it all turns to crap. BBL
Zona, My hubby had gall stones removed and he brought them home with a ribbon tied around the box as a gift for me. He said I should have jewelry made out of them. I wasn't excited about the idea. They are probably still in the box somewhere in this house.
I can't not say it anymore. Am I the only one who counts 4 little piggies on that foot? I'm not judging, just noticing.
How do you hurt a toe that's got buffers everywhere? Either side is shielded by other toes, there are longer toes to be sure, and there's an entire foot at the back. Carol, that takes some precision. You could be a sniper on a SWAT team.
shut up bonachichi~ It takes talent and a certain something to break that toe! And Carol and I have that certain somethin'~ It's called crackwhore-ish-ness~ I think i've broken all but my big ass toe~ Wait...haven't broken my camel toe either~
omg Di!~ I just read your post from last night!!!! You made my nipples hurt!!!!~
Dianne Tina's comment made me go check A51. Ouch! At least you didn't have an amazing nipple hair you were trying to curl. LOL
I SAID that it must take precision to injure that particular toe. If you want to take it as an insult ya dolt, it's just a bonus for me!
BONACHICHI: You can see Carol's fifth toe in the top pic..it's just a lil thang..but it's there!
Mr Z was in a forklift accident..and the middle toe is the one that was half cut off. How the others were missed, we'll never know. Divine intervention I think. Btw..now the guys at work call him "9.5".. ;)
SACBARB: That'll be an interesting find someday! ;)
TINA: LOL! I'm glad your camel toe is still intact..sheesh there's the QOTD..
HI J/LIN! :D
(delete was mine..spelling..of course)
That delete was not mine. And yes, I did call Tina a dolt. I might live to regret it.
No insult~ (no bonus!) :)~
lol J/L~ I was actually thinking Di was curling her nipple hairs~ :)~
Well, Zona... I do see a tiny little toe in that top pic. I'dve missed it had you not pointed it out. They are pretty little toes. I just can't get over THAT toe getting hurt, given the cushion of protection around it.
Tina, I don't think it's possible to insult you, but I can try, yes?
Are we maybe turning into those foot-fetish people today?
bonachichi~ oh honey...you can insult me.....try it in 3 weeks....I'll cry like a baby~ It's just the wrong time of the month right now~
DeeDee~ Get ur dizzy ass outta bed! Enough of that manure crap! :(
Oh... how could a person use PMS against another? Not fair. Not fair at all. I play by the rules. Hands off during PMS.
Zona: You better hope Mr Z's coworkers are calling him that because of the toe accident.
I'm just sayin'... :| :) :D !
Whabby, "Toe porno"?
Ok, I was curling my nipple hair. don't you all remember the necklace picture and al that hair on my chest?
MARY: I didn't know you knew how to ski. Come to Colorado and I will take you up there and wait in the lodge for y ou....you little ski bunny!
BEBBI: I am so glad to hear you are as anal as me with the farming, etc. I really blame TINA for the whole thing as she is the one that wanted to farm on my site and now here I am on two farms trying to get more land. It is such a challenge when I go to the market place to get hired ....just one more time before bed.
I have been at the phone store forever today getting a new phone. MARY..it's still the Blackberry but an upgraded model and now I have to learn the whole darn thing over again.
Ok, I cooked AGAIN tonight so going to check on my dinner. J/L...get up off the floor from fainting.
Hello Everyone..
How did you like my purple toe.. :O)
Its was really strange to take pictures of my foot and then incorporate it into a funny pic. I was laughing to myself last nite as I was making the pictures.. I was also thinking.. 'Geez this is a person with a foot fetish perfect dream."
My toe is def much better it is def not as all as purple as in the picture. When I look at the picture 2nite I realized how purple my toe really was..
I hit the metal leg of the chair
"head on" went straight into it..
I have since moved the chair over quite a bit from where it was, as I never want to do that again..
Thanks for all the comments on my toe..
:O)
btw.. DWTS.. I am fine with who just went home..
Sacbarb..
LOL on the gall stones.. what a present!!!
Tina...
OMG.. Camel toe.. LMAO
CAROL...sorry that you had such a painful way to make such a funny blog ;)~
LYNN...love imagining you doing the Snoopy Dance!!
DIANNE...you cooked???? Again???? OMG!! LOL!!
ZONA...Mr. 9.5!! That's kinda funny!!!!!!But I do bet he is a 10 in the pool!!
I have broken both ankles and a few fingers, but never any of the toes. *knock wood*!
Dianne..
Did you cook Purple toe soup?
Or toe-ma-toe soup?.. LOL..
I crack myself up..
:O)
Mo..
Yes, I sure did "knock wood" on Saturday Nite when I hit my toe the second time..
Bonacci..
You are right the third toe is quite cushioned and really not longer than the others, it still amazes me how I hit it "head on"
Zona..
LOL.. thanks for seeing my toe..
and
LOL.. 9.5 :O)
Shirley.. Shirley..
I got 50.. and on my own blog..
Fun!
Bebbi..
I am sorry you were not feeling well, but glad you are feeling better..
and
Thanks!
CAROL...I'm fine with the results tonight, too.
Anyone watching Leno? His hair is atrocious tonight!!
Lynn..
I think your little toe was jealous that the other toe was getting all the attention..
:O)
Mo..
No, I have not been watching him, the few epi's I saw his hair looked bad..
Whabby..
I hate stubbing my fucking toe to!
Mary..
Area 51.. LOL on your roll..LOL
Dianne..
Area 51.. LOL on your boob burn and wanting a hickey.. LOL..
You guys cracked me up...
:O)
I've broken a "couple" bones over the years. Once I went bike riding with a broken wrist. I fell off the bike and broke the other one, too.
Bonacci...
Geez, you must have been laid up for a while.. both wrists.. I guess ya could not ride your bike for a while..
Carol, it wasn't so bad. The bad part was explaining what I was doing riding a bike with a broken wrist in the first place.
Bonacci..
You riding a bike with a broken wrist does not surprise me at all.. I take you for a dare devil, so I think its right in character.. :O)

Good evening everyone!
Dianne What? You cooked again? I think I must have stepped into an alternate universe!
Carol I'm sorry you hurt your toe. I broke my foot once. Hurt like hell but I still went to work in a bakery (by myself...the other person didn't come in until 8am)for about 4 hours. The bakery manager was a bitch and wouldn't come in early so I could go to the hospital.
Everybody must be farming or watching TV. I'm off to bed. Good night!
Sweet dreams, Shirley!
Shirley..
I was watching TLC.. The Keandie (sp) Story.. such a cute child..
Sleep Well.. and sorry about the bakery manager, did you at least get to have a donut???
CAROL...did you watch Jon and Kate last night? Apparently he doesn't want the divorce yet and they took his name off the show...just Kate Plus Eight. I guess he got his wish and now probably regrets it.
Get this...our winning 3 digit lottery number was......0-69! Did I play it??? NOOOOOOO. Damn it!
Hi hooters!
Congrats on 1st Lynn!
Carol sorry for the broken toe, owieee!
I've had that happen before and it is sooo painful.
Bear I thought the same thing when I read that MR. Zona is called 9.5 at work. Then I wondered how would the people at work know that?? hee hee
Thanx Mary for the help with sending pics from the phone to Face Book, I finally figured it out.
Just a quick fly boy, hope everyone has a nice Weds!!
Ohhh, when I worked in neonatal years ago, one of our jobs was helping new moms with breast feeding.
There were LOTS of women who had long nasty nipple hair.
I would wonder how you would want your newborn baby to put that in their mouth, ick.
We had cool, windy weather today. And it was 100 degrees 2 days ago. So strange.
Mo..
No I did not see it last nite, but I read today that he will no longer be on the show.. good riddance to him..
:O)
EBJ..
Waving a wing at ya.. loved poe and nancy pics...
Me and my toe are off to bed..
c u all tomorrow for Whabby Wednesday, get a pad and pencil in hand..
And I have to admit something.. I have been farming.. ;O)
Nite!
EBJ Very interesting. Maybe it had something to do with their hormones during pregnancy.
Judy:
1) Thanks for that boob visual. Made my night! LOL!
2) As for how Randy's co-workers know, well, there are two possibilities:
A) His coworkers are female, and Zona's in trouble.
B) His coworkers are male, and Zona's in double trouble.
