Whatcha doing today?

Yup - the theory is the bones are misaligned which is pushing that bony part outward. Then it presses and rubs on your shoe and gets inflamed and sore. So when you put the bones back into alignment the bony part is able to slide back in under the toe where it belongs. I would have thought it was hogwash if my podiatrist hadn't been the one to suggest it. She said bunion surgery is painful and the recovery is long - and it doesn't always have great results.

Well I ordered the Yoga Toes and I have new shoes now that fit better and using the inserts too so maybe w/this and exercising the thing will go back to the position it is supposed to be in. Then w/that in place maybe the PF will go away too and stay away. Thanks for all the help.

Watching the news about train derail in Seattle Washington .Says several people are deceased .So sad

Yup. My dr said you need shoes that lace up high on your arch and fit your foot well. You don't want your foot to have to flex to hold your shoe on. When it's on and tied you shouldn't be able to pull it off your foot easily. I wore good gym shoes every day, regardless of what I was wearing with them. Looked goofy, but my feet felt good!

Bad southbound Amtrak train wreck south of Seattle. Several casualties and injuries. So sad for all the families and friends of victims. I-5 backed up a long ways. Train fell over the freeway and drivers of cars injured also.

I still don't walk barefoot in the house. I bought REALLY GOOD flip flops with arch support. Totally worth the money!

I had the shot, beyond painful, but got rid of the plantar f. I was told to wear hard sole shoes in house and every where. Well I go barefoot, wear costco flip flops never put on shoes unless I have to, my current ones are flatter than flat. I bought some expensive shoes that were to help my foot, they made it worse. Drive barefoot, do put on shoes if the snow is deeper than 2 inches, or husband harps at me enough.
Never want it to come back, but I break all the "rules" so far feet are happy.

I will look into the croc flip flops

They say it was speeding, doing 80 in a 30mph area. So sad. all over our news

Shame about the train wreck because it is part of a bigger project and makes you wonder why he was going so fast .

 

[j.w]

They will figure it out and all that speed to get there 15 mins sooner. $180 million dollars to lay that new track for speed but when they got to the curve they did not slow down from the 80 which they were supposed to be doing to 30 mph. They had tested the new route before this inaugural run but something went terribly wrong this time. Fortunately more were not killed. Those trains can hold 400 people but only 80 including the crew decided to ride that day. Like I said all this to get there 15 mins sooner. What a shame

Doing classes this week, won’t be on much.

I was disgusted today by a news report .They found a sea turtle hauling across the ocean 53 million dollars of cocaine across the water .What next will drug dealers do .This is so sad that this poor thing was used this way .Drug dealers like this need a death sentence and no waiting for cry baby people to stop the execution ,90 days and they are dead .Same way with people that murder 100 % guilty 100% death .You choose to kill to get something you want then you choose to die also .Why spend all this money on jails when you are not going to ever get out .The ones that do get out just kill again .

 

[Angel]

It was entangled. Not used. But sad none the less.

 

[JamieB]

Saw that too. Someone’s boat went down or they dumped the cargo before getting busted probably. I love turtles, feel bad for that one.

On a positive note, I’m moving my fry to a bigger tank. The little one made it hard to count them due to plants in the way, so I put the little aquarium in the big one, filled it part way so water can get same temp. Moved plants and what I’m guessing will be my winter guest of a big frog, and am paused for about an hour or two. It’s letting me count my little fish too! I know I’ve lost some, only saw one dead, but out of like 11, I’m counting 7, but water was stirred up. So I’ll know more in a bit. Now, to set up the filter so they don’t get caught...
