Blisters, Notebook & Boundaries on the Caminho to Santiago de Compostela - Day #16

Blisters, Notebook and Boundaries

Yesterday I peeled off the Compeed plaster after soaking my foot in the bath for a while, thankfully I didn't butcher myself by doing so. But once I saw the skin under and the red spot and felt the pain spreading I realised it was inflamed. And that I'd need to apply antibiotics if I didn't want a full-blown infection.

So I hopped to the pharmacy and spent €20 on antiseptic, antibiotic, gauze and more plasters. Joy! [Update: it worked - and I share with you about the magic medication in another article]

And knowing that I'd most likely have to spend another night here, I decided to crack on with some real studying and more than reflections, so I got myself a tiny notebook, signed up for a mini online course on Boundaries and spent the rest of the day going through it and making notes and writing processes and tips for myself. Nerd. I know.

Today my foot feels better, I even had a brief walk, still stepping funny though. And I noticed some things in Vigo that I'd share in another Journal entry.
