Walking on my heels.

My ambition to walk exceeds my ability to do so.

One week after surgery I thought I might still be hobbling, but free of pain for sure.

Bottoms of my feet are healing very well, but the area around the right bunion was very large and deep so that's where most of my uncomfortableness comes. The only tip I got this evening from my doctor was to invest in gauze that has vaseline embedded in it.

I have to laugh, though, when I think of Sting's song "Walking in Your Footsteps." I have indeed reverted to walking on my heels.

Next step: to graduate from surgical sandals to flip flops.
