Sore Foot Problem Solved

added by TKR 15 years ago O

Come the morning and her alarm clock screaming to awaken a sleeping person, Sally sits up in bed, stretches, and taking a deep inhaled breath, she feels excited to meet a new day.

Paying no attention to much of anything, she leaps from her bed, standing, stretching, and doing a few quick exercises, limbering up from a night of sleeping as sound as the dead.

Walking as if marching off to the battle at the office, she high steps from the bedroom to her bathroom. A flick of the finger turns on five big bulbs of light, these blind her and for a short time it takes her eyes to adjust, she nye unto being blind.

As her eyes cope with the bright lights, Sally begins to see something in her mirror, as if she is not alone in the bathroom. Scared by what seems to be reflecting in the mirror, she turns, and slips on the hard tile floor.

Slipping several times more, Sally falls to her knees, grabbing at the counter top and with a hand getting a good grip on the faucet hanging over the sink.

Seeing nothing like what she thought she saw in the mirror lurking behind her, she slowly regains her stance, lifting herself up and standing then wide eyed before her bathroom mirror.

Stunned by what she sees, Sally notes the small jar of what she purchased the afternoon before at the Chinese curio shop.

Blinking, feeling her heart race, she reads the small print on the label stuck to the bottom of the jar.

"Use only for pet and animals only: Contents of this jar can have life changing effect on human flesh, caution, if used personally, expect to live in the great outdoors."
