An injury and a new job

Don’s ankles have been hurting him for about three months now. We originally thought it was his boots that he has to wear to work. The other day he finally went to the doctor and apparently two bones in each foot are semi-fused together and when he dropped a deer blind on his feet back in January, it caused inflammation. So he got a steroid shot in his left one and he’s getting one in his right on Wednesday. This semi-fused bone thing is more common than you’d think. The doctor told us that a lot of people have it and never know. Most people don’t drop five hundred pound deer blinds on their feet either.

I’m starting my new job today. It’s tech support for an ISP. I’m excited. Finally a job with computers. Training is all this week, from five to ten. We get to pick our schedules so I can work as much or as little as I want. I don’t have to put in notice two weeks in advance just to find out the time I needed off wasn’t given to me (like my dad’s wedding, something important that I had to go to, not the dodgeball tournament that half the store took off for).
