Good morning!
I've honestly been trying to make a card....for weeks!
Just hasn't happened!
I made some Easter Bark.
Bought the wrong M & M's, but they were a big hit anyway!!
Made 'bird nest' cupcakes!

Vanessa & I went to GP yesterday to get the
rod pulled out of my toe!
WARNING: GRAPHIC X-RAY!
When the doctor left the room I took pictures of the computer screen!
See the 3 screws!?
I had no clue!
I told Vanessa, "when I tell you my foot hurts right there;
that's why!"
You can see the rod is beside the screw left in the toe!
This is her watching across the hall, as that lady had about 3 rods in the toes of each foot!
(My 'matching shoes' are in that bag!)
I still have swelling, and tenderness.
The doctor explained that because this was a 'redo',
it will take 3-6 months. WHAT!?
And I'm supposed to 'take it easy'!
And, it's ok to get it wet now;
I can have a real shower!
That borrowed shower stool is going back on Monday!!!
Here's a before:
Here's an after!
I took my softest most comfortable Sketchers, and they were still tight. SIGH!
Because summer's coming I'm supposed to use SPF50 on my foot, so it doesn't get irritated!?
No hot tubs, pools, etc. until my incision is healed( I still had stitches!?), and the hole in my toe!
No running, OMG!
It's going to be a quiet weekend here!
I don't have to make Sunday Supper!
I told V not to worry, my friend P & I would roast hot dogs in her backyard!
I will cook ham next Sunday!
Doesn't matter when we have it, as long as we're together!
These are the treats I made all my peeps!
I got the tutorial for making the 'Diaper Fold pouch' here!
I will be busy tomorrow handing the rest out!
I've got a table full of AVON that needs to be sorted & delivered today too!
Going to see if Craft Night Friday can be moved to this afternoon, or tomorrow afternoon!
I'll leave you with this!
I thought it was so cute, and actually smelled like chocolate!
Have a great weekend & Easter everyone!
Travel safe if you're going anywhere!
Hope you're all well!
Talk to ya later!!

Do take care of that foot, looks very painful.
Happy Easter.

Looks like you've been creative enough, even if you didn't manage to create any cards. I've been trying to do some colouring without thinking about the end result on a card. Very therapeutic! Must be great to be able to take a normal shower again and to wear proper shoes again. Hope the soreness will go away soon. Have a wonderful Easter weekend. I won't be celebrating Easter until next week, when the Greeks are celebrating their Greek Orthodox Easter.
One day at a time Gail! At least you've got sneakers on!
Onwards and footwards is what you do..I've just looked up the cream? It says ' can cause premature signs of ageing' be sure to use in on both feet lol..
You will have to laugh the only alternative is to cry!..and at least you will be able to have a shower. Seriously though thank you for the photo's..glad your on the mend. x Enjoy your hot dogs...FAb pouch...Mmmm yummy bear..

Wow on that amazing xray. 6 months is a long time to still be sort of 'incapacitated', but I know you'll do your best to follow Dr's orders. You sure don't want to have to repeat this, because something goes amiss. On the bright side, NOW you can get that shower. I know exactly how that feels & you never feel really 'clean' until you can get back in & have a good one w/o worrying about wetting your wound. Love your shoes too. I've had some of those myself from time to time. Once a padded boot (achilles tendon surgery). Your treats look yummy, and you're spot on. The holiday means having your loved ones near, not just special food. Take care, TFS & Big Hugs. Happy Easter.
Oh, I should have seen those bird's nest cupcakes before - how cute! You obviously haven't lost your creativity, it just walks on paths other than cards just now! That toe looks like it hurts A LOT... Hope it will be so much better very soon. Have a happy Easter!
Those treats look so delicious! You did a great job with them both. I hope the spring is the beginning of you feeling better with your foot. I can't imagine having pins in my foot. Happy Easter Gail!
Happy Easter to you and yours.
Making me drool with all that food. Love your creativity.
