It did hurt, but it was the kind of hurt that stopped after a bit. I think that the whole top of my foot was pretty numb after the outlining. I will try to upload a pic, but I have never done that so it might not work!

tattoo
I don't watch all the time but did watch last night - kind of unfair to make them sing Beatles songs since they are so young. . I like the rocker guy and last night I liked the girl with the tattoos. .

I have two, a small one on the inside of my wrist and a pretty good sized one on my back between my shoulder blades. I think you should get the tattoo where you want it. I think I'm going to get my next tattoo on the front of my ankle going down to the top of my foot. Tattoos are fun and addicting. Just wait, you will want another one after you get the first one!
pic of tattoo
It does not hold the link. It will act like it is uploading it, but then doesn't do anything else. I will try one more thing and if that doesn't work... sorry!
Maybe she just wanted to let the tattoo on --sm
the back of her neck be seen. ?? But, in my opinion, aside from her extreme behavior, she is one of few women who could go *bald* and still look decent. I think she looks good that way. maybe it was a prerequisite of the rehab center. just a thought.
Tattoo Survey!
Where do you have your tattoo and how big is it? I have decided after many years of wanting a tattoo that this summer for my 40th, I am going to finally treat myself! Husband and I are having a difference of opinion though on where I should have it (I'm thinking lower back or back of shoulder - he says he doesn't like those and thinks it should be my hip)...
I would also like to get a tattoo on my ankle,
but I can't think of any symbol or something that I like to put there.
Love my tattoo!
I have a tattoo on the top of my right foot. It is the flowers from the months that DH, myself and 2 kids were born in. I picked the two most popular ones for each month off the internet, went to the library and found pics of the ones that I wanted then she drew them all up for me. They are all in purples and yellows for the colors. I love it and am trying to think of something else to get. I would like to get my other foot done as well as upper back/shoulder blade. Good luck to you!!!
Does anyone know the meaning of Angelina's tattoo?
I can't figure it out. I really don't care anything about Angelina Jolie or anything she does. In fact if there is even a movie out and she is in it I refuse to watch it. Same with Brad Pitt. They both just sicken me, however, I am just a bit curious.
Her tattoo on her arm looks like some coordinates. Just wondered if anyone knew what it meant.
Here's a picture of it:

Only thing I have to add to below is to ask if you have a tattoo on your back sm
When my 2nd child was born, I knew the anesthesiologist because I had worked at the hospital for several years at that time, and he was kidding around with me about my tattoo on my lower back, saying he didn't want to cut into it -- my response was that I didn't care what the tattoo looked like later, I just wanted the epidural. Eight years later, I know now that many anesthesiologists will not put an epidural through a tattoo - something about the dyes possibly entering the bloodstream I think. I had an epidural with both of my kids & had absolutely no problems either time. The only uncomfortable thing for me with it was the 2nd time it had to be left in overnight because I had a tubal ligation the next day, and they left it there for that procedure.
Well I guess it beats having a big Billy-Bob tattoo
:-)
That's my 6-foot, 3-inch hubby and 6-foot, 5-inch son...
Those quotation marks and apostrophes don't show up on this board, do they!
Also, forgot to mention that the Prius is a whopping 90% less emissions than a regular combustion engine. That's a plus. The electric engine supplements the gas and so the car never loses ground going up hills, great pick up. And don't worry about the rumor that says the batteries eventually die and need pricey replacement. That's not true. There are several individual cells that are not at all expensive to replace and should last many, many miles. There are lots of older Prius on the road now that are going strong after 200,000 miles on the road with not even one cell replacement, much less the entire battery system. They are THE standard for hybrid design right now.
You can find out more about them at the dealer or by googling. The tech-geeks really like the car and put out lots of detailed information on the internet about the Prius.
Not the pedal foot!!! arg
I dropped a HUGE heavy glass cooking dish on my pedal foot, actually knocked it off the stove onto my foot. Fortunately it didn't break but holy freaking crap does my foot hurt. I'm sure my foot isn't broken but the whole area that got hit is now a nice shade of black. I am not ambidextrous with my feet! lol. Kay...done with my pity party.
Did it help your foot swelling too? (sm)
Because I have that too. And I get so sleepy I can barely stay awake!
With foot & mouth going around, I'd
call the answering service number and ask the MD on call if it can wait.
If they were just clear blisters I'd guess it was a contact dermatitis, but the blood would make me act on this.
LOL!! Should be dog food (not foot!!!) nm

claw foot
Same thing happened to me - my sister wanted it desperately, but they got rid of it before we could ask for it. Absolutely the most comfortable tub I have ever had. The rolled edge is perfect for you head/neck, deep enough for lots of bubbles. Those were the days!
I was in the same position until I put my foot down.
Stopped doing all the little things they liked. One by one, they wondered what was wrong with me. I finally said they could at least pick up their things. Husband cleaned the kitchen that night and the dining room floor. You have got to put your foot down and stick to it! Don't feel bad for them, you help them by not doing so much and taking care of yourself. Then, they will realize and pitch in. It does not happen overnight and you may have to grin and bear a messy house for a while. But don't see it, and do something for yourself instead, get out of the house, read a book, take a walk every time you feel bad for them and then do for you. It works, speaking from experience. But you have to stick to it! You will feel better. Try it you will see!
can you put something under the foot pedal to (sm)
raise it up? Is the back fo your leg touching your chair too much? Maybeif you raise up your foot you will get better circulation.
I get toe/foot cramps....
when my potassium is low. When I take my potassium supplement it resolves, so I do believe there is a connection, at least in my case.
Foot problems, anyone?
I do not have diabetes, no Morton's, do not have neuropathy that I am aware of. I have been to orthopedics, podiatrists, etc. and have not gotten any help to now. Both feet have issues. When walking along my right foot will hang in mid air as I should be stepping down on it and that makes me do a double jump so I will not fall. The other foot, left, hurts in toes 3 and 4 and sometimes on the outside of the foot. This sounds silly but had toes painted ( on that left foot) and the other night my darn end of my toenails hurt on those 2 toes. I took the polish off the next day and since then they have felt ok as far as the toenails aching but still having pain in the toes. I am at wits end trying to find a solution for these issues. Does anyone have a suggestion? TIA
foot problem
I had a similar problem about 10 years ago. It turned out to be a Morton's neuroma between my 3rd and 4th toes. Simple day surgery to remove and total pain relief. Very short recovery period required.
The foot that hurts is not using the pedal.
The pain is in my left foot, but my right foot uses the pedal. I think if I tried using my left foot on the pedal it would be too painful...
Foot-in-mouth-disease
At one time or another we have all suffered from it. Sometimes, things just pop out of our mouths before we have had a chance to edit them. What was probably a poor attempt at conversation turned out to be an embarrassing situation for both of you. Accept his apology and move on.
It's a really nice foot rest ...
because most of the time you are not going to want to lift it down. If they still have pictures of the tablets, that was a handy feature in case you ever find an unpackaged tablet in your house and can't identify it. :oD
Cat foot vs. puppy food
I don't know anything about the Canidae or Felidae brands, but most of what I've read about cat care has said that cats need a lot more protein than dogs, and different nutrients. And cat food might be too rich for dogs. Especially for urinary health, and especially for male cats. I lost a lovely young male cat last year to urinary tract blockage and eventually complete renal failure. Although no one can be entirely sure if it was 100% food-related or not, I feel that it may have been, because my kitty ate ONLY dry food, which isn't good for cats, either. He just didn't like canned food and wouldn't touch it. I also had gotten lazy and occasionally let him eat cheap grocery-store dry cat food, which is too high in minerals that can make them more prone to feline lower urinary tract disorder (FLUTD). Unfortunately he didn't die quickly or inexpensively, either! It was quite an ordeal. So in order to hopefully prevent this tragedy from happening in the future, my new cat now eats ONLY a premium dry cat food (Royal Canin) and gets canned food twice a day, in addition to plenty of fresh water.
Anyway, that's my personal experience, but of course, your best bet is to talk to your veterinarian! :)
I sounds like you have a foot drop. Do you..
sit with your legs crossed a lot? That can cause peroneal nerve palsy, which causes the foot drop.
Thanks! :) I checked out Foot Locker SM
and saw some really good deals on shoes. Also, Macy's is having a 1-day sale tomorrow, and I saw a Nike Hoodie for 19.99! I've been carusing all the websites today! (Abercrombie and Fitch, Old Navy, Macy's, Kohl's, Foot Locker, American Eagle, and E-Bay.) Eeeek!! I'm not getting much work done today. Oh well! Hehehehe. I'm going to have so much fun with this.
Again, thank you to all of you...you've been such a big help.
Big hugs,

Question for the dog lovers - cut pad of foot
My dog cut it's pad probably this past Sunday. He came limping home on Monday morning but by then it wasn't even bleeding. He is used to being outdoors (we live in the country and he can run free) and is about to go crazy because I have kept him either tied up or in the garage to give this time to heal. I have soaked his paw daily in warm salt water and have applied neosporin to it as well. It is looking good and there does not seem to be any infection, swelling it totally gone, and I can manipulate it without it causing pain.
This is on the main part of his foot and it is quite a slice causing a large flap to just kind of hang. A friend who had this similar incident said her vet had her apply ointment and then wrap the pay with masking tape to keep the flap against the paw so that it would heal shut. I have been doing this for the last several days. He will only keep it on there for 5-6 hours and then he'll pull the tape off.
Here's the question - is there some kind of product that I can safely use to "glue" this pad back to his paw? I know in surgical reports I have heard about a surgical adhesive that they use but is there something over-the-counter that I can get for this or even home remedy stuff to try. I hate for him to lose the substantial part of his pad and leave his paw prone to injury with more tender skin. I have been told that I can cut it off but I don't want to do that unless it is a last resort. I tried to "goggle" this subject and came up with a board where it was suggested to someone else for them to just use crazy glue and glue it back in place. That didn't seem quite appropriate! Hopefully someone can help me figure this out!
Your foot is not going to fall off. Now I confess I did not

Pain in foot with my berkies....
I have worn and tried to wear some newer Berkies and what has been a problem before started so much with these had to return. They had a very high arch support which I need the support - maybe this was too high- but my foot felt so contained the outer foot from the little toe to almost quarter way back was so bad felt like I would get a cramp there and just took the shoes off. Have something going on and have seen numerous physicians to no avail. Leg on that side just deep aching yesterday and had to rest on foot stool to relieve. Have any of you had similar feet problem and what did it turn out to be? Am wearing thong White Mts. at the present time and these are working ok.
used to have an old iron claw foot tub
in my old house, worked really hard to keep it, replumbed entirely and it was the most comfortable tub I have ever had. That said - others may not appreciate. The people who bought the house ripped it out almost immediately. I was sick when I drove by and saw it sitting in the driveway.
Watch the foot network. sm
 I started watching food net work a couple of years ago. It is amazing how much I have learned. Especially Emeril, R. Ray and Sandra Lee. Good luck, hope you and your family enjoy your new cooking skills.
Mountains. Back rub or foot rub?

Your foot is looking like Swiss Cheese
Better quit shooting yourself in it. Twould that you did a little research before you spout off as an authority. Point in fact, 'stupider' is an American English colloquialism, found in some modern literature but still not considered 'proper' English, and is not used in British English, which is what you claim you use.
My first thought is gout, but if it is only associated with using your foot pedal I'm not sure.SM
Have you tried using your other foot with the pedal and elevating the foot that is swollen and hurts. I always switch my feet throughout the day and elevate the one I'm not using.
Any consolutation, my foot spur eventuallly
went away. I did the same as you with the exercises, etc and it is just not there now.
I'd hold off on the foot pedal, Scott, sm
as you may hook up with a company that will provide you one that is specially programmed. I bought a wav pedal a few years ago and never used it.
My Misha had terrible foot trouble.
Not sure why she had infections going in her front feet, but she did. Finally had to have surgery on one of them. If you take the dog to the vet, the vet can put a better wrap on than you can. He can put a stiff sole in there and then wrap it with that semi-sticky splint wrap stuff. The soaking was good. We used epson salts or just soapy water. Definitely don't cut anything off. If it looks like part has turned whitish like it has no blood supply, then even that can be left in place as a temporary cover on the wound, the way you leave the cover on a blister, even if it breaks open. Eventually it will dry up and peel.
But I would probably have taken the dog in to the vet on Monday. In fact I did once for a cut pad; didn't know how old it was, but the vet was not worried about that one because it was only a couple of mm deep. There was no flap.
If you don't think a vet trip is necessary, they do sell booties with Velcro straps at pet stores. If you get the right size it might help you protect your bandage and keep it on longer. We did that with Misha. Maybe if you put extra stiffener in there and even glued in some bubble wrap or other cushion, maybe you could walk the dog sooner. You could use cushioning from people shoe inserts, maybe glue it to cardboard and tuck it inside the doggy booty. Course it would have to be a little bigger than the foot to accommodate all that.
Good luck.
Tell me my foot isnt gonna fall off!!
I had what I think is a blood vessel to burst in my foot on the side. My hubs says not a big deal, and maybe it is not but it seems to have spread a little, not over the top of the foot but bigger on the side of the foot. Had anyone had a similar happening? I am one of the older MTers so might just be an aging thing? Thanks.
A cubic foot of granite weighs 166.5 lbs.
I do not have experience with granite countertops, but I'd tend to trust the installers here.
Anyone else get a foot spa pedicure and end up with a fungal infection?
I am horrified to say the least. I never, ever go get manicures or pedicures because I am aware of all the nasty germs that lurk in places like that, but one of my friends wanted to go and I went with her. I have to say, it was a lot of fun and very relaxing, but when we were leaving I saw their health score framed on the wall. It was an 83!!! That was 4 months ago. The infection is only on my great toe on 1 foot, so for that I am glad. So now it is 3 months of Lamisil and LFTs every month.  Anyone else ever experience this?
You know, your foot pedal crisis made me think...
if that ever happens to you again where you really need a foot pedal, put out an SOS to your fellow MTs. I have a collection of foot pedals that are not for my current platform but in perfect working order. I'd be happy to send one out to an MT in need.
Of course, I MEANT cat FOOD, not "foot"! You don't want your dog eating your cat's foot

My daughter has hand, foot and mouth disease
She has 4 ulcers in her mouth and, of course, is in pain and won't eat anything. I put some cereal and milk in the blender this morning and she drank that okay, but her poor little mouth is really painful. We tried the saltwater rinses, but that didn't help. We have been using Orajel on the biggest sore, but was wondering if anyone has any other ideas for pain relief. She's been coping pretty good with the blisters on her hands and feet so far, but this is only the 2nd day. Hopefully, this will be over soon. Thanks for any help!
Since you're selling the house, I would not go with claw foot
I think the claw foot style appeals only to a certain market, and you want to appeal to as wide a group of potential house buyers as possible. If the claw foot tub is really what you want to live with, then save that style for the house you build for yourselves.
I grew up in an old home with two claw foot tubs. They were huge and comfy, but you have to clean behind them, under then and all around them. Since I was the youngest and smallest, that was my assigned job. Ugh.
We've lived in our current home for 23 years and expect to live here until we die. The house was built in 1915, and we have an enormous tub that was installed in 1922. I love it because it's sleek and built into an alcove. At one point my husband was really bent on ripping it out and putting a claw foot tub in there, saying it would look more authentic. Well, this baby IS authentic. It reminds me of a moving train. It's porcelain over cast iron, and it's not going anywhere. We've had it refinished, and it's beautiful and so lovely to soak in.
My point is, you can look for something along the lines of art deco/noveau which has the classic, stylized, and even sort of old-fashioned look, but still appeals to modern taste as well. (And no cleaning underneath!)
Anyone had shin splints or swelling in your pedal foot? sm
Been doing this type of work a long time, and I am fairly overweight. I get swelling in my calf and ankle on the right, and it is usually worse at the end of a long day of working. Also the front of my shin has been sore for a while, I think actually shin splints from pedaling all the time. Anyone else have or had this?
Thanks
We've been getting snow twice a week, another foot at least tonight...sm
wish I could give you more, up in New England we are soooo over Winter, except for the die-hard skiers, I want spring!!!! Make a snow angel while you can! :p)
way back when I trained i used a hand control instead of foot pedal, don't know if they still mak
them now, but you controlled it with the bottom part of your hand by hitting the buttons - forward, play, rewind. Might check into that. Of course, that was about 28 years ago. I really like it, but the only time I ever saw it was at the first hospital I worked.
Maine here. We're supposed to get up to a foot of snow by tomorrow
It's freezing up here right now.
Can you describe the scrunch you do. Do you mean pull your toes and ball up your foot or what. nm
