I finally got my early am walk with my new Merrills. They are definitely a stiff boot that keeps my foot from moving too much. I can see why Chat recommended them for a foot fracture. Overall, my foot is better, and I do wear my Hokas in the house all day, and I think that helped. I haven’t worn my Birkies in a while because I think they didn’t support my foot enough.
I did a menu plan for the week so i have a rough idea of what I want to make.
Last night I made chicken enchiladas with green (verde) sauce. We had a salad on the side.
Tuesday- I’m going to make tomato bisque soup( from Costco) and some cheese sliders.
Wednesday- I have some mac and cheese I want to use up. I might add some tuna for protein.
Thursday – I think I’ll make a tofu scramble with veggies and nuts.
Friday – I’m not sure we’ll do pizza, so I’ll wait and see what my daughter wants.
Saturday- ?? TBD. maybe a burger of some kinda and fries.
Yesterday, I dropped my books off at the library and recycled batteries there, too. The gym was busy, but I found my way around without any delays. From there, I went up to Costco, mostly for coffee and a few other things. I think the food part was @ 100. I paid cash.
Today is a home day, and my son is coming over after work to visit. I don’t have any big chores for him to do, so it’ll just be a catch-up on what’s going on. Although he could put the cardboard in the recycle bin for me. Since he has the truck, it would be easier for him to do.

Merrills are one of the few brands that fit my fussy feet.
Have you tried Hokas? They really are great overall.
We are finding it increasingly difficult to recycle here. The glass bins at the supermarket have now been taken away since the new owners didn’t want to have them on site. People leave such a mess around the bins of broken glass and a while ago a man was crushed to death whilst putting bottles into the bottle bank when a car got to close to him and crushed him. Meanwhile our powers that be (the councillors) are looking for an alternative site.
Those trainers look good and sturdy, will your foot problem resolve in time?
Yes, I actually don’t think it was a true foot fracture since it seems fine now, but the Merrills do hold the foot so it doesn’t bend as much.
