I would take your dog to the emergency vet and get it checked out. I hope your dog is okay.

That is some cool positive advice the Lone Crab gives. My take is that the body needs time to restore energy and wellness. It is hard but looks like accepting things you can not change. Writing about the feeling you are experiencing on bed rest could be a topic to get back writing and doing everything you are not able to do now. Hang in there. Lifting you up in prayer. ((hugs))

Bed rest is a great place to power through writer's block. You can't be constantly getting up to clean something or make tea. I own the StoryMatic card set that's been seen advertised quite a bit around here. Let me pull out a couple of cards that might spark something for you...

A person who knows the future gets or calls a wrong number.
A superstitious person has no place to hide.
A saboteur is on his (her) third day without sleep.

Mix 'em, match 'em, write, write, write!

Best of luck ~

My feet swell sometimes. I've had DVT twice in one leg, once in the other. I'm very careful. But yesterday... there was a swollen bruise on my right leg. I pressed it to see how badly swollen. It indented more than 1/2 inch

but seems to be okay today. I worry about my poor circulation, scrub my toes with a soft bristle brush, watch discoloration come and go. I probably need new arteries or veins but hey... "Heathcare" USA (enough said?). I may be better off trying something here in Thailand. But still... wish I lived in a country that had adequate patient based healthcare. Thailand and Taiwan mostly do, but I can't access it. First world systems like Europe, Canada and Australia do, but again, I can't access it.

I know I sound bitter.

Hope the knot is minor and discoloration normal. And... hopefully the doctor can come up with a plan that suits you.

As for school... I'm too old unless it's free. I learn a lot by traveling and reading articles on the internet and by talking with people about their experiences. Textbooks have limits.

My feet happen to feel just like that today. I had to go out to a doctor appointment and the post office. It didn't take much to get mine screaming in pain. btw: stepping on a Lego is the worst! You probably already know that.

My foot doesn't seem to be getting any better. Today was the last of my meds. I took the bandage off and discovered a knot on my heel and a lot of discoloration. Going back to the doctor tomorrow.

On another note, I've been thinking about going back to school. Not to finish my degree, which was in Wildlife Conservation, but just stuff in which I'm interested. Which is wildly varied. There are two, Poetry Writing 101 & Personality Development, that are at the top of my list. We will see.
