Stupid Boots and other things

Stupid Stupid Stupid Stupid Stupid STUPID BOOTS!!! I still like them and everything, but they hurt like murder, especially when you go shopping and are walking around ALL DAY LONG and didn't bring a change of shoes. That is what happened to me on a Tuesday a couple of weeks ago. The Boys had gone up to TN to spend a week with Grandma. So Me, Mom, and Dad were alone to enjoy life without noise, chaos, hassle, spankings, etc. We decided that we would spend a couple of hours ( notice the bold word and the underlined sentence) out in Hoover. My understanding was lunch and TWO stores. NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! After Olive Garden we went to Justice, Lego Store, Ross, Sears, Macy's, Rack Room Shoes, World Market, 2nd N Charles, AND Christmas Tree Shops. ( That is only what I remember). >:-( After that (nice) little outing, I could not walk more than a few steps, ( which I guess is just as well, because after that Mom and I sat down and watched two movies) which I might add for clarification we NEVER do. It is seldom that we watch even one movie, maybe once a week. But, with the stressful little heathens gone, we felt like we were in happy vacation mode. :-) But with that said, let me continue on with my list of things to write about. 1: Youth Retreat! Woo-Hoo! My first Youth Retreat, it was the best Youth Retreat I have ever been to. It was a learning experience for not only my spiritual life, but just life in general. (If you want the details, speak to me face to face and alone.) Brandon Keel is our Alabama Youth Director and he did a great job! Sis. Mary Shelton from TN was the guest speaker and it was sooooooooooooooo good to have her, her son, and Sis. Red there too. Sis. Kimmi, Bro. Brandon's wife did a class on modesty for the girls. It was straight and to the point, THIS is not modest, but THIS is. She did a fantastic job and said it in a way that it was not hurtful, but also Biblical. 2. After the boys got home the next thing on the list was Sam's # 10 Birthday. WOW. Did I say 10? I did. Hmmm. He got: Legos, (of course), a cowboy rope, and Matt Dillon sign(from Grandma), I got him the new Lego Minifigure: THE ELF(which goes so well with his Santa Claus)
Which comes with a present and a teddy bear.
UNTIL NOW: there has been nothing much going on, but tonight we have Band Meeting, so I had better shut up, and finish getting ready.

  1. You forgot Bargain Hunt. That's the store we were at when you finally fessed up: "Okay, I admit it... my feet are KILLING me!!!" Hahahahaha! I knew a day on the town in those boots would be good for you. It was especially great when we ran into that lady at Ross who was talking about how wearing heels has totally trashed her feet and her knees and her back... ;-) Love you, lady! :-)

  2. I thought I did right that in the list of stores, and you are a very mean mother.

  3. Boots aren't made for walking. That's why cowboys ride horses :-)

  4. HAHAHAHAHA! One day you'll realize looking cute isn't as important as comfort and good sense. ;-) In other words, "looking cute" can only be achieved for limited time periods before becoming very painful. Choose your times wisely. ;-)
    (They ARE cute boots.)
