Oooohhhh....Cary.....
Don't have any combat boots but I've got steel-toed safety shoes. Will that work?
I wasn't countin' sneakers... I don't think there are any unwritten roolz that pertain tuh them...
haven't owned sneakers since hi skool... sandals, boots or runnin' shoes...
I just recommend something with good ankle support... the ground outside the yard is uneven, with some small "ankle rollin' rocks... boots aren't a necessity, but I recommend 'em...
you go girl!!!...
I duuno... seen a few catalogs and calendars that would indicate otherwise...

*tap tap tap*... z'this thing on?...
Heh...I get the mental picture of, say, Daffy Duck taking an ax to a metal pole...with the resulting vibration taking him halfway across country.
Remember, we're looking at the "no white shoes before Easter OR Memorial Day" rule as a sort of guideline, along the lines of the Pirates' Code. ;o)
Mornin, Rosie! How was Canada?
cold, eh?...
Good morning!
Man...not having access to e-mail over the weekend makes me feel like I've been away weeks instead of just days. Trying to get back into the swing of things here...
Speaking of fashion...first of all we don't wear Easter dresses until Easter...
And speaking of white shoes...I don't wear 'em since it's sooooo hard to keep 'em clean here what with all the dirt paths and such, so usually I wear black or brown shoes in the winter and sandals in the summer. HOWEVER, I'm supposed to wear white shoes for the wedding, and you know, I can't find them ANYWHERE! That was a good part of what I did this weekend: drove around to various places trying to find a simple pair of white pumps or something along those lines, and they just don't MAKE them, apparently. Closest I could find were some "bone" colored things with a zillion straps and vey high heels. Ick. I'm guessing I may just have to try to find some along the travel route or in Fort Collins before the wedding. Eek!
It was actually a gorgeous day!
I think it's almost kinda sorta spring, at least for a day or two. Only 26 at the moment, but it was close to forty yesterday and should be that again today. And clear and sunny!
Mornin'.
~sip~
Getting ready to apply for yet another job...
Good luck Rosie!
Rosie, if you go to a bridal type place, they'll have white shoes. And probably inexpensive ones that are intended to be dyed to match bridesmaid gowns.
That's probably a good bet. Only catch is that there aren't places like that here...the only bridal shop I know of closed down.
So...either it'll be another long drive next Saturday (might do that anyway since the brothers have to go somewhere for suits, and I could ride along), OR I'll have to get 'em elsewhere, which might work just fine.
You'd just think EVERYONE would have such a basic thing!
