We have unfinished hard wood floors in our home (which will be finished sometime this year) and I was walking down the hallway and I got a splinter in the bottom of my foot and its where the part of the skin is like solid as a rock.  I went to check the damage and it was in there pretty good, I was worried that I was going to have to go to the doctors to get it taken out, but my mom told me to put my foot in some warm water for a while so that what I did.  After a while I had enough of it and I went to attempt to take it out .  I was working at it for around 5-7 minutes and I saw it coming out and so I grabbed some tweezers and pulled it out!  I was amazed that the pain pretty much went away but it is still sore.   This was no simple splinter it was in there deep and hurt badly.  After I pulled it out I cleaned my foot with some soap and water and I’m going to keep an eye on it for just in case.

I know most of you are probably thinking this is gross but I needed something to blog about!
