Clarification!

Hey y'all, I just thought I would answer all the questions once! lol

I had a spot on my leg that would't heal. It's been scabby but still weepy (nasty, I know) ever since the beginning. Which was with a skin infection about a month ago. (I think?) Then, the last few days, the leg and foot started swelling again so I went back to the doc. More antibiotics, and keep the leg elevated...again.:( Not my fav thing.
But, since this whole thing started with a sore on the bottom of my foot...it's off to the specialist for me. A podiatrist, who will presumably perform an exorcism on what ever it is. Then, hopefully, it will finally heal correctly. That will be nice, it's been there for the better part of a year!
My family doc has told me at various times that it's a plantar wart, a regular wart, a callus, and a cyst. I think it's safe to say he doesn't know. And when he doesn't know he sends me to someone who will. I like that about him. He knows his limits.
So I have an appointment on Tuesday morning to see the new guy. I hope he's helpful. I don't want to have surgery on my foot, but if that's what it takes, then that's what it takes. I have no idea how I'm going to work the logistics of a healing foot. But I am sure I'll be able to deal with it. It just won't be fun:
So as you can see, I won't be spending much time at the craft table, as there's no way to elevate my leg over my head and sit at the craft table too! If you guys can figure out a way to do that, please let me know... and thanks for the info for the storage Kaye.
I hope you all have a great day, Jess

Hope you have better luck at the podiatrist with a verdict of what it may be. As for the storage the tall pots are in various sizes from being 2" circles to about 3 1/2" circles that screw together so you can make them as tall or small as you want.

Oh Jess, poor you, what a time you are having. Hope the new guy gets right to the problem at once and can heal you. You can do some colouring with your leg elevated........
luv and hugs
