... and Brent thinks he has broken his foot...and its more than likely Id say.
He dropped a trailer draw bar on it...and now it is bruised swollen...hot and cold...and his toes are numb. (he does have circulation...his toes are still pink and warm...so I did check..)
It just makes me tear me hair out....earlier this week he needed to take a sick day as he had a rotten head cold.... so a very justified day off....and now this morning he can barely walk... but how.... when you have just started a new job...do you make the phonecall and say you need a another day off.....
Ive instructed him to hobble to work...and do his best... and seeing as his foot feels freezing cold and he cant weight bare properly...I doubt he will last long today ....
...honestly far out..... things like this drive me nuts!

Well..Im off to scrub the shower...its long overdue..... and Mum and Dad are coming this weekend ...and staying for awhile...

  2. OH NO Mardi!!! You poor thing... It never rains but it pours hey. I know how his foot must be feeling though - poor thing! I hope he is OK and that work when seeing his foot will send him off for an x-ray.

    Thinking of you my friend

    OH NO, the poor guy - OUCH !!!!

    I hope he can rest over the week end and it gets better very soon.

    Surely even a new job will understand he didn't hurt himself on purpose.

    Have a nice week end. Sending you a big friendly hug and lots of love from your pal Susan (smiles1965) at Scrapboxx

    Hi Mardi,
    How is Brents foot today? Did he make through his day - probably not by the sounds of things :(
    I hope he is recovering now.
    Take care
    Tammy
    PS I gave my bathroom a good scrub the other day - much needed too *sigh*
