Sadistic Swiffer



Decent deficit but not enough steps. If you are squeamish please do not read any further. Around 9:45 p.m. last night I decided I was going to clean up the kitchen a little bit. I wanted to put my bugg back on because I wanted it to count the calories I was going to burn (every little bit helps!) While walking over to my desk, I stepped on the edge of my Swiffer Wet Jet and took a chunk out of the ball of my foot. I ran across the room in pain and then asked my friend if it was bad and he said "Oh ya!" It took a little while to stop bleeding and then I was able to get up and get it cleaned and bandaged. Needless to say I am not wearing normal "work" shoes today. This certainly throws a wrench in the exercise routine. I will not backslide! I will not let this hinder my progress! Hopefully it will heal quickly. I can still ride my bike - it is the walking that is more affected. *Big sigh* Until next time...

  2. I just had to put the disclaimer so you couldn't say "She didn't warn me!"

  3. Well, I'll be extra careful with my swiffer from now on! Oh Katie, that is a painful injury but good for you for being so committed. Whenever I get an injury I try to make sure I get lots of vitamin C to speed up the healing process.
