Fingers crossed but not my toes


Not to jinx anything but winter seems to be winding down a notch. Still plenty of snow piled up that even with milder temperatures it will be awhile before we see open space in the yard should we not experience a big storm. There is some snow in the weekend forecast but no prediction on amounts yet. In the meantime I've been hobbling abouts with a ailing small toe on the right foot. According to my podiatrist one of the joints of the little toe and the one next to it are rubbing enough to have caused sore which hurts like %#$@ when pinched into most footwear. The solution, surgery to scrape down the joint part of the bone where the two meet and your jaw would drop to the floor if I told you how much that will cost. Sure, insurance pays a portion but with a high deductible my wallet will sting as much as my toe.
