I went to the sale Monday and bought 35 head of replacement heifers. Tuesday night I was moving things to get the bulls ready to move with their new ladies. I stumbled in the mud and tried to put my boot through a post.
It kept getting worse and more swollen so I went to the doctor today. It appears that I shattered the bone in my big toe and shoved the splintered piece over the other bone. I wondered why it was shorter and it crunched when I pulled it back straight. He put me on crutches with a boot and said under no circumstances is that foot to touch the ground until the orthopedic surgeon sees it.
I told him it was calving season, piglet season, and the rainy season. I also have a pen full of heifers to work. He said well you aren't doing it. After he left the nurse said that he had grown up on a farm and if I needed to, just get it into a boot and be easy on it.
There's just never a good time for surgery or to be off your feet. At least I finished harvest on Sunday.
