New Shoes

Hey, I put some new shoes on,
and suddenly everything is right,
I said, hey, I put some new shoes on and everybody's smiling,
it's so inviting,
Oh, short on money,
but long on time,
slowly strolling in the sweet sunshine,
and i'm running late,
and i don't need an excuse,
'cause i'm wearing my brand new shoes. (--Paolo Nutini)



After what seems to be another 6 day batch I am thinking a little shoe-therapy might do me some good. I am off to get me some Dansko's. I need a little pick-me-up anyway. I spent the weekend in bed with what I thought was a kidney stone - but, has seemed to slowly diminish into a dull lower back-ache. I should probably go to the dr. - but, really, who wants to go to the dr with a 3 year old - really. We moved all of our furniture downstairs because our contractor was going to knock out our walls - which hasn't happened. So, we are living with what can be microwaved and served on paper plates. We have a card-table and some folding chairs - we're livin' like rock stars (hey, I did look like Rod Stewart for a while...if the shoe fits). Tonight the wind is blowing so hard - I think we might end up in Kansas...but, with the thought of new shoes...suddenly everything is right...

If it blows, it will probably end up in my yard. I will save it for you! As for my crap, I guess I will have to look for it in West Valley or something. Good to see you are alive and kicking!!

When I think of "new shoes" I think of Twin Peaks. Leo (the bad guy) got injured and all he could say was "new shoes" in a high voice and drool.

Cute shoes!

New shoes always do a body good! I like both of those.

Have fun! Can't wait to see what you get!

Me luvs your shoes!

I'm cracking up with the same problem about 'needing' to go to the doctor and hauling all my kiddos in to an appt. Really....nobody wants to take a toddler to a dr. appt. If only the spouses could understand that pain. I get it.

Purchasing Crocs make me happy! I get that as well!
