LOL

You got me in trouble anyhow…I’m a “elderly” lifetime shoe-holic, just sadly parted with a ton I don’t wear anymore, I seldom go anywhere except church and the store and have more than enough shoes for that, and here you have tempted me with shoes. Been “needing” some silver ones (have gold), and those polka dots are just too cute. My children are gonna have me committed if I don’t watch it, but they believe in supporting a good cause so maybe I’m safe. :o)

I thought that was just an AT&T commercial! I had no idea it was an actual company. :) I’ll have to check it out.

Sadly, my husband insists I have too many shoes (what IS this “too many”?). So as much as I would love to order a pair or five, I fear it would only be adding fuel to the fire. And even the fact that I’d be supporting a good cause wouldn’t be enough to sway him. Don’t get me wrong, he’s a wonderful man and an awesome husband, but he just doesn’t get the connection between a woman and her shoes. *sigh*

On the positive side, he just turned 49 a few days ago, so he’s still young enough that I might yet be able to bring him around to my way of thinking. ;-)

My bookkeeper was talking about Tom’s shoes recently and I thought she was praising “Tom” that bought shoes for needy students in our district for a gazillion years. Must be something about being named Tom that makes them want to help cover those sweet little feet.
Googled and found retailers in Little Rock at some unlikely places. Clinton Presidential Library, Box Turtle, Whole Food Market……..huh. Glad to hear they are comfortable, might have to check them out. Tori, the wrap boots are perfect for you with your tiny legs. On the other hand the wraps would only go around mine a couple of times and look like ankle boots.

That’s what I call putting shoes to good intentions! I’m going to google it to check it out. I could use a new pair of shoes. Do they have old lady shoes……held together by Polygrip??

Dear wonderful, precious Tori. Why do you still cover for him?? It really doesn’t help him in the long run. You, I, we know full well it was Russ, Russ who turned you on to those shoes… Sorry, and seriously, it sounds, reads, wonderful! Thanks for the completely unsolicited head’s up! = )

Sceptical as I am on wellfare initiatives, I googled around and this seems a real thing. It’s not just a cheque that is written, but shoes are delivered personelly. People can even volonteer to go on a shoe dropp off tripp. Glad you posted this, I will pass the message, although I don’t think they are for sale over here.
