Son K took this photo one evening at sunset when we were out shopping, I thought it was pretty:
So last week I was rushing out of the house and stepped out into my garage the wrong way and hurt the instep on one of my feet. I was okay until many hours later that night when the foot started to hurt and I couldn't put any weight on it. It was a terrible, helpless feeling although my family was very helpful. Fortunately, I was able to limp around by the next morning and things improved quickly as the hours went by.
I had gone Christmas shopping that day and realized one of the gift cards I purchased was missing! We decided to go back to Walmart to see if the cashier might still have it. The cashier didn't but she thought she might be able to re-print the gift receipt and cancel the card. She went to check with her supervisor and the supervisor said 'was it a red card ...with a receipt folded over it?' It seems she had found one lying on the floor next to the cash register hours earlier! So we went to customer service to retrieve it, armed with my bill of sale. I don't know if a $25 gift card was worth twisting my foot over, but it was still a good feeling.

I am all recovered, thanks.
I was able to go out the next day, it was a relief to wake up and be able to walk to the bathroom that morning!
