Death Toe

Death Toe

This toe was already ugly, but then I stubbed it on a beach umbrella this morning. It's weird how injuries accumulate; once you get one they seem to attract others. I have a small bruise and cut on my nose from my young nephew hitting me in the face with a bucket. We rented kayaks and decided (stupidly) to surf them back into the beach and of course mine flipped over and smashed me in the back.

I'm feeling a bit weary and sorry for myself and would like to go home.

I have hit the same toe over and over for two years. Last July I lost the nail, it's grown back, but not "right."

I definitely can identify!
