Leaf, mushroom. So much of life looks like leather in the fall.

I hurt my foot.
I use my feet to open close those old doors in our house that stick in certain weather. A little kick and they do what I want.
But it’s been a couple of weeks that my foot has been hurting. I was ignoring it, trying to wish the injury away. But it wasn’t working.
It got bad enough that I skipped Bellydancing last night.

But today I found if I don’t bend my toes, if I walk on my heal without putting too much pressure on the ball of my foot, it doesn’t hurt.

It’s been a while since I’ve taken a walk in the woods because of it. But today I went slow, thoughtful of my foot, and took a short walk.















The leathery brown mushroom looked like beautiful burnished mahogany to me.
Oh yes, I can see that Sandy.
