Out of a watercolor mess

Such as this one where you can see the outline
of the where the photos were.
I added the watercolors in after the photos were adhered and its
obvious I need to work on this skill.

I flipped the page over and wasn't feeling it even with the washi tape addition. 
At. All.

So I found this basic grey page (from my new warehouse purchasing gig) and the colors
worked perfect actually minus the watercolors. I didn't have to change the matting and found
some really cute wooden buttons that work well. 
 I put the entire page together, and forgot about the journaling, thus
the kraft tags came into play. Sigh.
I'm thinking when its that's hard to create a page I should read a book 
or do something else. 
Magically, I painted the title on TH grundgeboard without a castastrophe AND added
sequins without too many sticking to my fingers, AND found all the
letters I needed for the word "long" in this pile of wooden 
embellishments in a plastic bowl - that made me beg the question of "what was I thinking 
dumping all the wooden things together". 

I have saved the original patterned paper as I have not given up on it. When I'm that annoyed, and scrapbooking really shouldn't be annoying, its best for me to start again.
Stay tuned to see if and how the rejected paper is revived.

After all that and Thursday's debacle,
I know you can't possible fathom how I could break my foot.

Still waiting on the diagnosis...in the meantime UPdate

The swelling seems to be going down on my foot and its not black and blue as I thought it would be. I can put a bit more pressure on my toes and now on my heel - the middle part still remaining tender. So in the meantime I thought I'd entertain myself and you with the deets.If you look forward you'll see that  there is kind of a ramp up on the deck of the boat. There's also a seat and anchor storage on the bow under the wooden door. I stepped up on the wooden door on the bow to get off the boat to step over the railing off the bow and onto the dock.

Now keep that ramp up thing on the deck in mind, as I changed my mind, and stepped back down not paying attention to that stupid ramp up where my foot hit sideways that  knocked my bad self off balance causing my foot to slip into the cooler that is permenantly attached to the deck. Laurel and Hardy would be proud.

I was attempting to get to the part of the boat where you see the break in the rail. Which in hindsight, I should've just kept to the plan on getting off from the bow OR paid more attention where I stepped down.
Either way it was a DOH moment.
I tend to have a lot of them.

Still waiting on the doctor. 
Heavy sigh.
I have a nondisplaced fracture on the left side of my left foot to the baby toe. I have a Dr appt with a podiatrist tomorrow.
Yay - moving forward.
