If the shoe fits...................

Good morning everyone!

I thought I'd share a little today - I have an ongoing beef with John - a daily beef - he always leaves his shoes scattered by the back door - not neatly - just kind of thrown there - and every single day I trip over them.
EVERY SINGLE DAY.
You'd think I'd know by now to check for them - especially since I walk with my head down looking for centipedes every moment of my life...........( and every now and then my diligence in that matter pays off - when I spot one - and scream frantically as I kill it )
But for some reason I'm always tripping over John's shoes.

When I first met John he was the epitome of the British business man.  He dressed in Canali suits - had his shirts made - and only bought his shoes at Cole Hann.
He never went out without a tie - and didn't own a pair of jeans.
Let me repeat that - HE.  DIDN'T.  OWN.  A.  PAIR.  OF.  JEANS.
John is not from London - he's from Yorkshire - how he couldn't have owned a pair of jeans I have no idea.

I rectified that as soon as I possibly could - explaining that he had been in Canada for over 25 years at that point and it was time to get with the program - and I actually went out and bought him a pair of jeans - black jeans - because in his mind only farmers wore blue jeans.  ( when I tell you we're world's apart you have no idea )
BUT - he did get this high heel wearing girl into her first pair of Cole Haan penny loafers - so it all rounds itself out I suppose.
Okay - so now you know who he was...................

Last night I tripped over the above mentioned shoes for the last time -

Suzan says - if you don't start putting your shoes away I'm going to throw them out
John says - DON'T TOUCH MY SHOES

Why oh why didn't I listen..................I'll have nightmares of this for a very long time

Suzan says - OMG - I'm throwing these out immediately
John says - DON'T TOUCH MY SHOES
Suzan says - too late - I already did - and I'm throwing them in the garbage
John says - DON'T TOUCH MY SHOES
Suzan says - OMG - I'm so embarrassed - what's happened to you John?
John says - Let's not get all ridiculous and dramatic about it - they're the shoes I put on when I work outside.
Suzan says - I'm begging you John - PLEASE throw them out.
John says - Leave me alone already - there's nothing wrong with them
Suzan says - but I don't understand - you have at least 10 pairs of good shoes
John says - I don't want to ruin them - use your head Suzan
Suzan says - If you don't throw them out - I'm going to blog about them
John laughs - you wouldn't dare Suzan - I know you by now - and believe me I know you wouldn't blog about my shoes..................even you have your limits
And he was this close to being right this time............

But really John?
Do you really think I have limits?


They look like Batman's JOKER of the shoe world don't they?
That's one evil looking grin going on with that sole.
Or they're happily on their way to being a steak

John laughs - Anyway - I thought you liked vintage?

Not quite what vintage decorating is all about John - but you're getting there...................


John says - why are the wooden spoons in the dishwasher?  I thought you said the dishwasher dries them out
Suzan says - DON'T TOUCH MY WOODEN SPOONS!!!

These shoes aren't made for walking - they'll just give you a rash
And one of these days these shoes are gonna walk into the trash..................
are you ready shoes?
start walking...................



( P.S. I had to run up and down the hallway with a shoe hidden in my nightgown at 7 in the morning to take these photos - he'd kill me - or throw a shoe at my head - if he knew I was posting this!!! )
