Popsicle Toes

My toes are freezing! On the bright side they're not the colour of eggplants like they were yesterday after I got home.

Didn't end up visiting Gene today. He was planning on having an early night and I didn't want to keep him up. So instead I went to the shops and bought some foot pads to cushion the blisters that are forming after the cryotherapy, dog food for the dogs (I'm sure they'll be happier now that they get a mixture of food again) and more socks than you could shake your foot at. I made sure that they were good cotton socks so that they breathe well and I can hopefully avoid this whole pained foot situation again. I also got some rather random sock-like items like the toe covers... just imagine a sock without the heel and leg half of it. It's working out well in terms of keeping my toes warm and the rest of my foot a normal temperature. There's also a foot tube which is about the size of a sweat band but for your feet. I'm not sure why I got them... but I figure it'll be added protection for the blisters.

I do wonder sometimes... here I am getting excited about socks. I knit to pass the time and get rather excited about different wools, silks and cotton (not to mention the different needles and stitches). Sometimes I feel like I should have been born earlier back when all of these things were less strange and spinster related. Then again I can't complain because I have a fantastic guy who is supportive of most of my quirks - what more could you ask for?

I do wonder, but then I realise that I wouldn't change a thing. I am content with my life at the moment. Even when I'm feeling down, I think that I am content with my life. I guess sometimes it seems like it's too much to bear.
