Selfish Shoes and Flowers
I did a selfish thing tonight, and I am not a bit sorry. I bought clothes for myself, and shoes for myself. I went to the store, and it was all about me! I got 2 shirts, a skirt and a pair of pants that all mix and match, and one plaid skort. And four, yes, four pairs of shoes. One, two, three, four. Muhahahahahahahaha. These I got tonight are dress shoes, as all of mine are sadly out of style.
I do enjoy a good pair of shoes. I like them made of leather, and I want them to be comfortable. Usually at home, I wear clogs. I have several pairs that my mom gave me for Christmas, plus a couple that I had before. You know how some people just perk up when they receive a fresh flower delivery? It just brightens their day so much that you can see it on their face? I’m that way with a good shoe. It doesn’t have to be a new shoe, though that certainly doesn’t hurt, LOL, but I can tell a difference in how I walk and move in a shoe that has great support. I walk a little smarter and hold my head a little higher, because I feel good.
Now, I have a birthday coming up, as Ang. reminded me tonight. I’ll just say that if you can’t decide whether to send a pair of fine shoes or order flowers, I wear a 7.5, and I’ll supply my mailing address on request. *wink*

wee! new shoes! 4 pairs no less! so what kind did you get?
Oh! Mudd flip flops, Mudd pumps, Hotcakes heels and Steve Madden pumps. It was a sale! A BIG sale!
ooh, I like Steve Madden. I really need to shoe shop myself. I own croc flip flops, several pairs of birkenstocks and a pair of nikes.. thats it. Of course the last time I was going to buy shoes they were croc clogs. Problem is, I never go anywhere that requires something nicer than what I already have!
The last new dress shoes *I* bought for *myself* were…….in Topeka, and possibly in Colorado Springs. That means at least 8 years, and more likely 10. I stole a pair of TheClone’s from her, but I hardly think that counts, do you? It was time.
Hello, found your blog today and want to let you know I love your “About Me” sidebar. Having 4 kids in 7 years seems to put the kabutz on buying clothes for myself since everything seems to be in the dozens of various sizes I have been. I can’t wait to buy a nice outfit once my size regulates. Kristen Mother of Four- Goddess of Chaos http://www.tubbybundle.com/blog
I bought 2 pair of shoes at the same time and now they are wearing out and need to be replaced.
When you find a pair you like and feel good, you have to buy them in (almost) all the colours, right?!
Hello! I have stumbled on your blog and I read your post about the shoes and clothes……cute!
