shoe porn


Reader's of my other blog might remember this pretty pointsettia that Bill was given by his work. I love it and found it thoughtful, but I also worried that he might have gotten it in place of a Christmas bonus. With the uncertainty facing lots of local companies, it wouldn't have been a shock! We just hoped for the best, because we had to finish Christmas shopping and catch up the utilities.
One morning, about a week later, Bill calls to say that he'd gotten his bonus, and it's enough to cover everything.






Including a pair of red patent peeptoes, which I found for $30. Man I love shoes.

It's amost 10:00 pm Alberta time, so I think that Bill and I are going to watch a movie. Happy New Year! May 2009 be a little kinder to all of us.

  1. This is a first year that we haven't had a poinsettia. I can't believe it. That one is beautiful, Kate. I didn't even realize we didn't. We didn't even finish decorating the tree and now it's time to take it down. Oh well, what a year it was. I'm glad it's a new year and hopefully a new start.
    I also love the shoes. My daughter bought me some really neat boots for Christmas and I can't wear but one of them. By the time I can it will be out of season. :)
    Happy New Year and the best to you and your family.
    Hugs!

  10. Are those your feet? You have very, very, cute feet!

    Ew. That sounded sort of creepy. Damn. What kind of a world is it where a middle aged man can no longer compliment a woman's feet without sounding creepy?

  11. LOL. Thanks Paul. I have a shoe fetish, so it's always nice to get a compliment on my feet. And I am middle aged too, so I guess that would be better than if I were 19 :P
