Okay, it's official. I'm a goon! That will come as no shock to most...okay...all of you, but I recently rediscovered that about myself. This morning, I was getting ready to take a shower and stepping down (that's right down) into our snazzy 1970's sunken tub. My left foot went down and promptly slipped. My right foot, which was still on the side of the tub twisted, wrenching my hip and hurting my toe. I thought I had broken that toe, but it turned out just being a tendon injury. I'm so grateful that it's not worse!
I felt pretty stupid going in and talking to the doctor, though. "Uh, yeah, I slipped getting into a bright blue sunken tub." Well, that's not a direct quote, but that was the gist.
On a nice side note, the doc gave me time off work for me to recover more. On the letter to my employer, he said I may go back to work on the 11th (which is Saturday, of course). I asked if I could go in today, and he basically said I couldn't. Uh, okay. I'm fine with some pain and two days off! Too bad I don't have sick leave, huh?

I LOVE that tub. Sorry it is so dangerous. Please be careful. Glad you got a couple of days off, though. Are you still enjoying Pearl?
