Good morning all!
Aly I wear heals on occasions but then I am a double cane walker too. And the type of heals I wear are called "platforms" or 'wedges' and the soles are about 2 inches high but the toe is about a 1/2 inch shorter, so it adds the hight and cute style without walking on my toes, which is impossible for me. Besides the cane I have to go slow and there is always either my hubby or one of my sons by my side as I walk. So I don't care what anyone else says or thinks...this is what I got to do to feel pretty once in a while. Even if its a pain.
Although now with my new jimmie pc I can see where it might be more fun on a cruise to use it to get to the dinning room all gussied up! Its hard enough to try and walk a straight line for me but add heals and a rocking ship to the mix and I look completely drunk!
Ann I am glad that you felt your spirit lift when helping someone else! You do that daily already just by being here on this board. I hope you realize that and feel that way more often.
Helen, Alaska makes everyone go broke! Just gotta know how to work it...
Glad you got to the car show. Some fond memories of my teen hood was in a '64 cherry red mustang with my friend and I going to the drive ins and flirting with all the boys who showed up in their pick up trucks.... those were fun times! Although for those of you who would like to read into this more than what is there I will save you the fantasy...it was just banter type flirting and nothing more!
Marta you always bring a smile to my face! Now this is going to sound weird, but in my mind when I read posts, I have a thought to how each voice would sound if we were speaking the words. So this imaginary voice for each person is based on the location where they live. So like someone from the south of usa would have a soft spoken southern lilt in the made up voice in my head or someone from NZ would have more of an Auzzie accent because I do not know what a NZ voice would sound like. For you my dear Marta...even though your from Colorado...I keep getting a Puerto Riccan accent! Now please do not take it other than just that I am crazy! Help me change your accent if you are not Puerto Riccan! Now it might have come about this way because your picture looks alot like a friend of mine named Jackie, who is in fact Puerto Riccan and her voice has become your voice in my head. So when I read your posts...I hear her voice with the miss prounounced words too. Tell me, what kind of accent do you have?
Ok...yesterday was a busy day! Did some jarring of moose meat and have more of that to do today. Then took lil one to her horse back riding lessons and did some laundry all the while trying to get hubby out of his depressed mood and busy with finding a new job. Been kinda rough there as it wan 1976 the first and last time he had to find work. So this is really difficult on him. Prayers are welcomed!
Had some pt on my foot, but now my other foot is starting to swell and be painful so migh have it done on that one too. An appointment with the pediatrist is set for next Friday to see if he will fix the orthotic he made that is causing the planter ficicitis (sp?). In the meantime I am just hobbling along.
You all have a great day!
