First an injury to my left foot that also makes me able to measure the barometric pressure in the atmosphere. Then? Pregnancy. I had to get rid of scads of shoes when my feet grew a half a size. EVERYONE (closely related to "They") told me my feet would return to normal, but they never did. I was in mourning for a long time. I'm better now. Resolved to life of Crocs, comfortable flats with good arch support, and wedge heels (which are just fine... especially since I was lucky enough to find a super-fun pair in the Spring). I do keep one special pair of heels, just for Sean. He picked them out and I wear them very, very, VERY occasionally... :) Two things killed my happy shoe life, the life of high heels and fabulous style.

I really get it...:) I've always liked Jeanie in... well, forget it... I won't even go there... But I do find it interesting that I see posts with "no comments yet" or "1 comment" and then you talk about women's shoes and you get "13 comments"!!! ????

I am on my third pair of black, boring, but oh so needed for comfort Danskos. And for the summer, I spent my life savings on a pair of ugly, black, Mephisto sandals. They look just like a Berkenstock but are more comfy. Why is it that what you have when you are young you don't realize that it disappears in just a short time. I never once thought when I was in my 20's that the feeling in my feet would change. Nor did I know that butts don't stay firm forever. SIGH! Oh, Jeanie…I feel your pain.

They make people look like something out of one of the newer really horrid Star Wars movies! True. Uggo. I truly considered z-coils when the knee got re-injured.
