Man oh man. I have to wear one of these things pictured below on my right foot for the next 4 weeks. I’m supposed to wear it 24/7, including to bed. I am supposed to take it off only for showers.
The week after this thing comes off, Mrs. Ldubs officially retires and I’m taking her on a big two-week trip. So, it is fairly important that I toe the line and heal up before the trip. (Hmmm. Foot brace + “toe” the line + “heal (heel)” up. Get it? Aww, never mind.)
Doc says I can’t get it wet. I asked him about what if it rains really, really hard (meaning how about when I go out on the boat). He says stay inside, buy a cover for it, or use a big garbage bag. Big garbage bag works for me.
The reason why I have to wear it isn’t important. There are some sunny days coming up in the forecasts which will be perfect for some winter trout fishing. The issue is how do I fool Mrs. Ldubs into thinking I hooked up the trailer, drove to the lake, launched, and etcetera all without taking this thing off.
I’m probably toast, but still thinking.
