Do we all shop at the same shoe store Confused

Shhhhh....don't tell my former bosses at Neiman-Marcus but this is what I really wear when I'm not being forced by them to parade around in $700.00 designer 'loaner' pumps. nodding

These used to be causal 'kicks' that I wore in Ohio to just put on with shorts and t-s for back yard BBQ's, quick runs to the grocery store, mail box, taking the dog for a walk, etc. Then they became the one's I'd wear around the back yard in Ohio to do some gardening or when I washed the car.

Then they became the ones I took to the beach. Salt water works some wonders! .

Then years later for some bizarre reason I dragged them with me to AZ. Wore them to go to the mailbox, and hang out on the back patio and walk the dog or putz around in the garage. .

Now 14 years from original purchase *Blush* all they do is sit on the back patio. I put them on so my feet don't get dusty and dirty (kind of counterproductive from the looks of them) or put on so I don't have to stand in my bare feet in the back yard rocks while I hose the tree down.

They're presently not fit to walk more than 20 feet in Rolling on the floor laughing . I plan on hanging onto them until they fall apart. Truly amazing what rain, dust and 118 degree heat can do to shoes.

I'm going to see how long they hold up. I may just put them on and pan handle until I have money for a new pair. :hurray:
