Fairy Steps

I LOVE high heels... I think cute shoes are a
joy reserved for women but admired by men.

I wore platforms for all the years I waited tables.
Danced in patent leather black pumps.  
Walked miles in Birkenstocks.
Represented in Doc Martins.  
Limited to slide on type shoes unless I have a
willing accomplice. 

Anklosing Spondylitis forced me to leave some
things behind and pick up other things. 
Appreciating all my blessings.

In awareness of the precious and fleeting
moments of life. 

Acknowledging my physical limits.
Breathing through  gratitude.

Be a blessing to someone today.

Red Hot Valentine Shoes

I work really hard, I get really good grades, I am a good mama and wife so I think I might treat myself to these shoes.  Just because...yep I said it. I know what you are thinking. Yes, they are expensive but if they last it will be worth it and if they don't I'll cross the bridge some other day.

There are plenty of things that I don't have control over.  Things like my "affliction" or gippiness, that's what we call it, that make it impossible for me to shave my legs, in truth I can shave my left but not my right leg.  Then there are the things I CAN control like sliding my feet into beautiful shoes, having a pedicure, and spending some cash every once in a while.  Worth every penny.
