I'm certainly no novelist, but I have written three books, "In The BUFF," "A
Navy Medical Corpsman's Journey," "A Carolina Country Boy Remembers" and
other assorted stuff. 'Fraid my writing is not novel-worthy - too stilted,
and too technical, not sexy - not very interesting, but thanks for the kind
words.

Wilton, have you ever considering being a novelist, you write some of the
most descriptive passages. That one gave me the willies, the creeps and the
heebie jeebies...

'May be much worse and different. I have much trouble walking barefooted;
'possible same problem in soft sole moccasins. 'Big danger is catching a
toe on the floor/ground and tripping or turning toe under and stepping on it
with full weight like I did in my bedroom 'bout four years ago. I was just
out of the shower and nude, crossing my bedroom to my chest of drawers to
fetch underwear, caught left big toe on carpet, turned it under and stepped
upon it with my full weight on it; tore toenail off from the top - not the
outer edge - ripped it off from the meat/flesh at the top. I was here by
myself, bleeding and nude. 'Got a clean hanky out of the chest of drawers
and tied it around the toe to slow the bleeding. 'Called my former
daughter-in-law (podiatrist) to come doctor the toe, then realized all the
entry doors to the house were locked and couldn't get to one to let her in.
'Called son, who has a key, to let her in; by the time they got here, I had
dressed partially and was waiting on the bed with the left foot sticking out
the side "ready" for some repair. I was lucky to catch both of them at home
and immediately available.
Conclusion: most dangerous time/place for me is with bare feet in the
bedroom. I have to walk very slowly and deliberately and concentrate on
each step to clear the floor/ground when that "rear" foot comes forward,
especially when barefooted.
