"On Sunday night, I was folding laundry. On the way to put the towels in the linen closet, I tripped on the edge of the ottoman in the hallway and, crack, broke my baby toe on my left foot. Really, I know it&amp;#x27;s not the worst thing that can happen, but yikes, does it hurt, and I&amp;#x27;m so bummed that I can&amp;#x27;t go running this week! Will you have a pity party with me? After I tripped on the ottoman (I heard a cracking sound in my toe--it was that bad), I lay on the floor in tears, curled up like a baby. I told my husband that it felt like my toe was on fire--the pain was that excruciating. Now it&amp;#x27;s just swollen and bruised. I taped it to the next toe, because after doing a bunch of online research, I realized that there&amp;#x27;s no use going into the doctor&amp;#x27;s office. What were they going to do, anyway? Put a cast on my baby toe? As I sit here today, I&amp;#x27;m amazed at how such a small part of my body is causing me so much pain and annoyance! Even more, it&amp;#x27;s preventing me from going running this week. Boo hoo. Have you ever broken a toe? How did affect your mood? Your exercise? How long did it take to heal?
