Life as seen through the eyes of a displaced cheesehead formerly living in San Francisco now taking on the Pacific Northwest! Put a bird on it!

Slowing me down

I have been wearing this here boot for the past month and a half. It's fashionable, isn't it? I know you want one! And check out the "even up" on my right foot. It's fancy. It is to keep my hips in alignment while I wear this thing. When I first got it there was a nice rubber sole on the bottom and no one could hear me coming. Well that is no more! I sound like a pirate with a wooden leg every time I walk down the hall. Really very entertaining.

Turns out several months ago I tore my plantar facia on the bottom of my foot. The podiatrist didn't want to do an MRI and was treating something else for the first two months. Finally around Christmas time they did the MRI and found the tear. At least I didn't have to truck around Barcelona in my boot! Two more weeks and I will be liberated. Can't wait!

The rain in Spain

I love this picture of my wife Miss B. It was raining in Barcelona. The rain in Spain...
