Check 'em out...


My favorite place to shop in the whole world is K's closet. She's on top of the fashion world, she pays more than $4 for a pair of jeans without crying... she just gets.it. I'll spend money on clothes and shoes for her and my grandkids, but never on myself. So one year when K was in jr. high, I bought her a pair of boots. This was - what - 13 years ago...and, like everything else, when she was "done" with them - I got them! LOVED.THEM. Wore the HELL out of them.

Fast forward to the after Christmas sales last year...I called K & told her that I'd bought mySELF a pair of boots!! YEA, YIPPEE, WHOOEEEEEE!! She about stroked out - I'm not kidding. That picture up there? My new boots. Comfy, make my size 9's look small...nice. And I finally threw out the pair I'd bought K 13 years ago, and had been wearing every since. They were getting a tad uncomfy. So I've got some new boots, and my even be able to walk in them. Life is good......

See, good boots are the one thing I've never had a problem spending money on. A good pair of hiking boots can get you to the top of the world. Without the Carpenters.

That was one of my mother's utmost lessons -- never buy cheap shoes, never wear uncomfortable shoes, and ALWAYS know that your feet are one of the most important parts of your body -- so treat them well.
