Fall is coming and I am trying to prepare.

Ok so it’s been a while since I have posted anything, and I have been getting razed about it again. Well you know me I want to make everyone happy so I better update just a little bit.

So here I go. Life has been going good. Busy, but good. Time just seems to go by quicker and quicker as I age. It seems like yesterday was the beginning of September and now it’s the 23rd. As for what I did during the last 23 days well I can honestly not tell you. Maybe I should work on making my life just a little bit more exciting.

Seasons are changing and I am enjoying that. I love the season of fall. I love to see the leaves changing colors, (although I may have some different thoughts at the end of the season due to the fact that we now have 3 large leaf baring trees in our yard that will loose there leaves in the near future.) Something else that I love about fall is sweaters and sweatshirts. What is more inviting then putting on a nice warm sweater when there is a chill in the air? I love finding new sweaters each season and love sifting through the old ones.

Then there are the shoes…. “fall shoes” I know it sounds funny, but really you need to have just the right type of shoes to get your through the fall and winter. I love boots, but unfortunately have been blessed with large calves so until I can shed part of my calves I will have to stick to ankle boots or a basic shoe. I have been on the hunt to find the perfect shoe and Fernando has been very patient with me as I try on shoes and walk around the store for ten minutes or more finding out if I like the way the feel and look. It is a very tricky thing and can not be acted on to hasty. I know, I know…I didn’t use to be like this, but well I have come to the conclusion that if you really want to be happy you will be patient to find just the right pair. I want to be happy with them so I am being very patient. I do have a price point though that I will not go over. I have to do this to help eliminate some as well as keep me grounded. Because believe me if money were no object then patience would not matter. So my thoughts on finding that perfect shoe or shoes is that I will need a basic black pair and brown pair. They can’t have to high of a heel because snow and heals don’t go so well together ok so lets be honest… high heels, snow and me don’t go very well together. Something that looks good with jeans and slacks. Comfortable is always a plus but not a necessity. I do like to have a variety, but I am not against buying the same shoe in both black and brown if it is the “one”. We need to stay somewhat in the trends of today because I have always told my self I would not be the lady who stays with her trends from when she was in High School. You know exactly what I am talking about you know you can pick out the girls who were in high school in the early 90’s because there hair has not changed since, and they are still trying to wear there tapered jeans with zippers on the bottom (or are those jeans coming back..hmmm) Oh gosh I just realized as I went to step up on my “soap box” and I looked at my shoes I am wearing my old Doc Martins right now…hmmm. Ok I guess what I need to say is that I don’t want to be the old lady wearing all of the trends from High School…uhhh I think that’s right. Hmmmm, maybe I need to take a look at my wardrobe. Oh well so now the task is at hand to find the shoes for this season…I will worry about the wardrobe later.
