Bad Santa!

Caution! Putting away Christmas decorations can be hazardous to your health.

This weekend, I put away all the ornaments and the artificial tree. As I went to put my animated Santa back in his box for another year...

I accidentally dropped him.

Not just dropped him, I dropped him from about 3-1/2 feet, and he landed on the corner of his stand...

...on my foot.

As you can imagine, I said a few choice words, with tears in my eyes.

Fortunately, Santa was not harmed, so he will be back next year to eat some more cookies.

But, 3 days later, I have a fabulous bruise with a red mark in the middle.

At first I thought I might have broken something, but it really doesn't hurt unless you press on the actual bruise.

(Sorry for the lack of pedicure, I haven't had one since we got back from Hawaii a month ago.)
