I won third place in DF's football pool despite not following (or caring) about football at all!
Love it!
Poor Pugsy, I know it pained you to have to buy those pair of shoes and not some gorgeous shooz!
Laney, please do not beat yourself up over this.
You do not have a crystal ball to see the future and did the best you could at the time.
LOL! Nice!
Love it!
Thanks guys!
I won $65. I know, I know, don't spend it all in one place!
Oh, I would be glad to!! But you may want to remind me which boots because "le petit meltdown" distracted me
Or was it the pair of boots you were trying on sitting on the floor on we had to pull them boots off of you?
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!!!
Poor sweet Codygirl, she deal's with a lot in the shoe dept. of BG, "le petit meltdown" and unfortunately when the doors of the elevator opened on the shooz floor I shoved her out of the way and went charging towards some boots. I don't know what happened, with my awful feet and need for "special" shoes, I couldn't wear any of those shoes.....but......but......when the elevator door opened, there they were in all their shiny splendor, beautiful shoes, tons of them........Cody is definitely a good sport!
Laney, please do not beat yourself up over this.

Thank you Purse.
I look like I'm trying to be Jem from Jem and the Hollograms! I may have just dated myself there. It was a cartoon in the late 80's.
Pugsy, stretchy yoga pants, just the thing! I should've had a pair for the Goodyear that was Christmas at my parents'. Sorry about the shoe meltdown at Bergdorfs...I had a similar experience at the NM after Christmas shoe sale in Atlanta, came home with nothing. Darned this whole "being responsible" and thinking through purchases before I buy
I'm trying to be responsbile with my purchases. I'm not allowing myself to buy anything until I have lost 20 pds. Let's see how well I do.
Praying Winky wil be ok!!
LMAO
Purse, Mree, Restricter, OB, Avril, EB, Mistikat, CK, CG, thenurse, Mindi and Pugs, Thank you so very much for your very kind words and support. It means a lot to me.
I am sorry to hear your Dad has passed. December 13th was the day my Dad passed as well, I'll always include you and your family in my thoughts and prayers that day!
Thank you CG. We knew my Dad's time was near but the Dr.'s had just told my Mom that he could live 6 more weeks, they were surprised how well he was doing.....then in just a week's time he rapidly declined and was gone.
I originally planned to go out to visit after the New Year but my Mom had been by herself for 2 weeks and was at mental meltdown point. So she went and stayed with my sister for a week and then I flew in for a week. My dad passed a day and 1/2 after my Mom and I got back into town. I didn't expect that. I will forever be grateful I was with my Mom when the call came that he had passed, (it would have taken at least 5 hours for the closest family member to get to her), I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy for someone to be by themselves to receive that call.
Thanks Mindi! My family does like to joke that I think I can protect everyone and their feelings. I will always feel sad and that I failed to do that for my youngest sister. When my Mom visited my Dad on the day he died, the nurse said it was looking bad and that he would most likely pass within a week. I called my sisters that evening to tell them. My youngest sister, (who was so very close to my Dad and having a horrible time right now), asked why the nurse said that, I told her I didn't know, so my sister called to talk to the nurse as my sister is a nurse as well. My sister called me back and said she and her dh were packing, calling the babysitter and getting on the road, (they are a little over a 3 hour drive from my parents house), asap as after she talked to his nurse my sister was worried about my Dad making it through the night, but it would definitely be in the next 48 hours. Then less than an hour later he was gone, my sister hadn't even had time to finish packing. Through all of this my sister said she didn't want my Dad to die alone and she wanted to be there to hold her Daddy's hand as he slipped away. If I had just thought to call her that afternoon, just a few hours earlier than I did, all of that would have happened. I cry a lot over the fact I called her to late and she didn't get to say good bye and be there with him.
Please do not beat yourself up about this. I have been in this same place. It's not your fault. I wish I could just hug you right now cause I have been in your same place and I know how you must be just beating yourself up. Please don't.
Thank you.
No kidding! Just look at my closet full of 4" platform heels, stilettos, and Kelly boots that are so incredibly beautiful and so very inappropriate for toddler chasing.
Oh, yes.. I have decided to say no to shoes! Even if I keep thinking og ankle boots by H. Please slap me into sense.
Edit: I am much better. Tomorrow I am going to school and I just booked my return ticket from London. So I am all set to go. How about you?

Elastic waistbands to the rescue! Hugs to you and your little sister. That's so tough for both of you. But thank goodness you were there with your Mom when she got the news. Oh my goodness, I can't imagine my Mom being alone for news like that.
