Cautionary Tale 3

Postby Drifting » Thu 12 Nov, 2009 8:31 pm

I was hoping to take a day off of yard work this weekend and go for a nice day walk.

Then I stepped on a toothpick, which went right in and stuck in there, punching right through the callous on my heel. Went in about 5mm, or more- straight in, and the tip broke off where it couldn't be fetched out without a visit to the doctor.

Looks like I'll spend some more time on the lawnmower this weekend...... :(

You can't mow lawns with a toothpick in your foot :roll: :roll: :roll:
