I'm sure my mother still cringes when she hears about me running around in my bare feet, I know my husband does. But I just can't help myself! I love the feel of fresh grass between my toes in the Spring and warm beach sand or hot grass under my feet in the Summer! Don't you?
It makes me smile when I get to dig into the back of my closet and pull out all of those great sandals and cute little shoes that have been hibernating all winter! And if they look a little too worn out from last year, what better way is there to spend a Summer day than shopping for new shoes?!
Even though I admit to a healthy love for sandals, my shoe fetish is paled in comparison to my Dad! The man can't pass up a pair of shoes on sale! Just recently we were walking together through a store and he saw some sneakers on sale and he had to stop because they were on SALE! He has a separate room in the house with several shelves just to store his shoes!
Now, I once thought that my Dad had a lot of shoes until I met my dear friend "Sally" from Connecticut. This woman takes shoe shopping to a whole new level. We were recently traveling together in India and I found that she has to be dragged, kicking and screaming, through any markets where vendors were selling shoes! I was proud of her though; she showed great restrain on this year's trip. Last year she brought home a bag full of shoes! I'm talking more than 30 pair of shoes! (Okay, maybe it was only 17 or so....) Still! That's a true "Shoe Lover!" (The name of the not-so innocent has been changed so that her husband doesn't find out. The total number of shoes actually purchased has also been altered to protect her right to shop for more.)
I'm curious..... After a long day spent in nursing shoes or Crocs, what do you nurses like to slip into for footwear?
