5/22/07 - Blister #4


I am not even joking about this... I have another. It's small, though, so the picture above is actually a picture of Blister #1 as it looks today... which is 100X better than before!


I think the arches on my "Superfeet" inserts are rubbing on my feet wrong and hence the blisters on the inside arches of my feet. This new one is a mirror of blister #3 and also not bad. After walking outside on a hot day like today, though, it's a little irritated. The blister pads I bought actually "melted" to my feet. Honest. I will try to get a picture of that next time.


And rest assured, there will be a next time. Did I not say this would be a blistery summer?

5/19/07 - Blister #3


In an effort to protect my healing Blister #2, I put a band-aid over it, followed by an ace bandage... unfortunately the ace bandage led to blister #3 above.

It's small in comparison to the first two and not yet painful. The worst part of it is that I brought it on myself by protecting blister #2!

Time to buy some Epson Salts...

On the plus side, while walking with D.S. and L.M. on the towpath we spotted some bald eagle nests and even one eagle perched in a tree. So not only am I raising money for a great cause but I am also discovering nature at it's finest in little ol' Cleveland, Ohio!
