Last few months I’ve been feeling pain in my left foot on the side by the big toe when I walk to work. I suspected what it was, but I’m not sure why I didn’t pull off my shoe when I got to work. I think because I knew what it was.
Looked at my foot this morning. Yep. You guessed it. I have a bunion. Some thoughts as I examine the boney lump on the side of my foot:
1. Why is it always the left side of my body for the most part that I injure? Bad left shoulder. Bad left knee. Now I have a bunion on my left foot? Is the left side of my body attempting to suced?
2. Only old people have bunions. Ergo, I’m old.
3. This sucks. I hardly ever wear high heals because of my bad knee but the shoes I wear are actually good shoes for walking. Does this mean that I will be shuffling along in trainers for the rest of my life?
4. I wonder how long I can put this off before I see the doctor.
Anyway. I’m off. Stuart and I are going to Rome for a couple of days I need to go buy myself a zimmer frame.
