Lkleppin, hello! Thanks for stopping by here. Bare feet in the snow… yikes! Those slippers sound comfy. I can do slippers… they’re halfway between sandals and actual shoes that require sock wearing. Ugh.

I once let a rental car battery go dead and the owner of the B&B got out, in the snow to give me a push. He was barefoot! I love going without shoes, but not that far.

I do know I keep a pair of totally worn in, worn through, comfy moosehide slippers in the car to drive with. Ah! My toes thank me.

Great post! G.

Hi Natural. (smile) That old familiar pair of shoes sounds very familiar, as does the expensive taste.

i got so comfortable in a pair a shoes, i didn’t realize they were torn and the sole was coming apart.

i guess that part of change i don’t like myself. once i find something that fits or works, i like to stay with it.

btw..my feet like expensive shoes like in the hundreds…i can’t afford to pay that for a pair of shoes. I usually end up getting stuff that almost fits

Davina,
I enjoy looking for the most comfortable pair of shoes so I can just step right into life with happy feet – now if they can also be red…bliss in comfort.

I just started seeing your comments on Barbara and Vered’s Blog sites and thought they were open and fresh. I look forward to reading more of you posts.

Congratulations on the NBOTW honor. Thank you for sharing your writing.

Hi Davina – I was reading this post yesterday when my computer crashed. What you say is so true – making positive changes in your life is like changing your shoes for new ones. It feels uncomfortable at first but if you persevere it’s worth it.

Hi Urban Panther. I hear you about those dog poopies. I’ve had the uh, ugh, experience of stepping in a cow poopie on the farm. Not one of my fondest memories. It did make me watch where I was stepping more closely after that.

Hi Harmony. Glad you like my feet. Nooooooooo! Not boots! That means clingy socks too! Nooooooo!

Hi Barbara. Thanks, it’s good to be back. I like what you said here, “…once we’re comfortable in our “new pair”, our life begins to feel like those old shoes again.” That was a comforting thought, thank you!
