Boo-Boo

Remember that random moving injury I got?

What seemed like an innocent enough cut on my shin has grown angry, red and swollen over the past few days. It’s hot and throbbing, and I can’t jog. It’s making me miserable. All the antiseptic and iodine in the world is not making it any better so tonight, the doctor is coming (house call!) to hopefully make it better and in turn, make me a happy camper.

In the meantime, to try to cheer me up and take my thoughts away from how ugly my leg looks and how ugly it will probably still look at The Cousin’s wedding at the end of July (big ugly cut does not make a fab accessory) let’s look at some happy summertime photos…

Strawberries. Bright, cheery, and delicious. What’s not to like?
And how about this view from Le Petit Village…
Absolutely breathtaking.
And check out this guy on his moped…
It’s hot, so naturally you would attach a garden umbrella to the back. I mean who wouldn’t?

Because I have a huge boo-boo, The Husband is trying to take care of me…

This is The Husband’s attempt to cook. He made a salad. Or should I say, a cheese salad. There is like three or four different types of cheese in that with a little bit of endive at the bottom. God knows he tries. Bless him. 
Lavender, lavender, and more lavender….
But be careful, lots of bees in that lavender. 
Sidebar – Mr. Honey and Honey Jr are basically immune to bee stings. Since their family has been honey farmers for generations, it’s like their DNA has been mutated and bee stings do nothing to them. Mutant X-Men freaks. 
Kicking it on a mini-moped…
And no explanation required…
Rosé.
Or as I like to call it, 
Pain Go Bye Bye Juice.

I think London City Mum's suggestion for dressing up the wound for the wedding if it hasn't healed by then is great! Hope you're better soon!ps. that guy on the moped with the brolly is fabulous. Is he someone from the village?

  18. Oh Sara I do sympathize, I don't have a nasty wound but I am always bashing my legs and burning myself on the iron! Not a good look in Summer, I just had my legs waxed and I think the beautician must have thought I was a battered wife!Hope the wound heals speedily.XX

  19. I hope the doc fixed you good 🙂 Can you send him my way next? As for Pain Go Bye Bye Juice, I have been having my own share, although nothing as swanky as yours. The 5$ bottle of Moscato is working nicely tho:)

  20. Well we had a great May June here now we have rain for the Oxygen festival.You are so lucky enjoying the good food and wines in France, not to mention the weather.I keep lavender oil in my sock drawer and dab it on every day. I also have a big porcelne cricket and when you press the base she sings. It is fantastic when you close your eyes and relax.I might go down and do some cooking in the winter.Stop jogging for a few days give your leg a rest!John
