Friends, cheesecake and shoes

It doesn't get any better than that!

And maybe my friends will forgive me for taking pictures of the cheesecake and the shoes that I bought and not taking any picture of them!

Ahem...

Fabulous Shoe Friday

Because I want to publicly declare my love for my shoes show off some of my most fav and fab shoes I am dedicating Fridays and let's face it, all the rest of the week too to shoes.

These are my most fav shoes ever. I call these my birthday shoes because I bought them on my birthday. and no, they have nothing to do with my birthday suit...ahem....

Quote of the Day

A friend gave me a really cute book of shoes oh, and I guess there was a calender in there too, not as important, obviously as the pictures of shoes and there are some really great quotes in it. This one is my fav-

"Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you are a mile away from them and you have their shoes." -Frieda Norris

And on a happy, happy note...Corey is on his way home!!!

P.S. The above shoes are not from my collection. Although, I wouldn't mind owning the ones at the top right. But, the ones at the bottom left are just...well...that's just wrong.

Why I love the UPS man

This my friends, is art. I call this masterpiece-

Box of Boots

And no, sorry, it is not for sale.

They aren't for sale but they were on sale and then there was free shipping if I spent $___ use your imagination here, can't put that in writing in case the husband sees

For some insane reason they had to send each pair in a separate box, which happened to arrive on separate days. The UPS man must know wonder if I have issues. After the first day when I was deliriously happy to see him when I greeted him with style, he wouldn't knock when leaving a box. Don't judge me. It's not like you've walked in my shoes Oh, come on, you know that was totally funny

Recently one of my former friends mentioned that I might have a shoe buying problem.

Huh?

Some words should not be used in the same sentence.

Halloween...overboard

Twilight...lame

In-laws...visit kidding...geez...

Shoe buying...problem

Lots of shoes...materialistic

Becky...hypocrite

Are you following along?

Then it was mentioned that I should sign up for a 12 step program.

If that means that I get to take 12 steps in a really cute pair of shoes then sign me up!

My birthday

Since everyone else seemed to be having a birthday I thought I might as well have one too.


Sleeping in, breakfast in bed, the kids sang to me and I got to go to a movie with friends...what a great day!


Corey insisted offered to take me to dinner and after we had some time to kill so Corey reluctantly we went to the mall.


That's when it happened...


Before that day, I never really believed in love at first sight. I know that it's been said that two people will lock eyes across a crowded room and just, well, know. Ya know? I scoffed didn't really buy it.


Until...


Corey and were walking down the middle of the mall, he was listening to me talk about shoes we were talking and I just happened to glance over into a store. Like when you think you hear someone say your name and you look in that direction. My head just turned and I saw...them. From the middle of the mall...through the entire store...on the shelf...were...My.Shoes. I swear a beam of light shot straight down from heaven bathing them in light and angels started singing.

I did an abrupt 90 degree and headed straight for my love shoes. Corey continued to walk nodding like he was still listening but didn't even notice that I was gone. He found me, in the back of the store, whispering sweet nothings to my babies while I cradled them in my arms.


"Are you really going to buy them?"


Seriously? I gave him The Look (come on, don't ya know the one) and he didn't say another word. Couldn't he tell that I was already picking out a matching outfit in my head?


They are now home, safe and sound. Don't worry, it's not like I've built an altar for them....Yet...


Happy Birthday to me!
