New Wellies..

My last entry was a small rant about the insane distances I had been travelling in a week and I'm afraid to say it didn't stop there.. but it was worth it. The result of my driving missions has been a new opportunity and adventure to begin after this summer.. and I couldn't be more excited!

It does however mean packing up my shoes and moving to a new place.. which isn't such a bad thing and will of course mean needing new wellies (taking my Portsmouth or Norfolk wellies just wouldn't be right!). Before the big move there will of course be houses and furniture and all sorts to find but I'm going to put that off until at least the start of the summer.. I still have unfinished business here for now. I do feel happier however, thinking that at least come new year there will be something to reflect on as defining 2013, well more than just one thing. Change can be good.. and sometimes just feels like the necessary next step.. even if just a few steps at a time.

Some more change from this week.. these are, of course, my new slippers.. You would think we were out of slipper weather but the snow this week confirmed it for me.. its never safe to put your slippers away! In other shoe news this week, I'm having real trouble deciding on what footwear we wear in this weather.. one second its raining, then sunny, then snow.. fleece lined flip flops perhaps? Lets see what the weekend will bring..

P.S. I found this article about a couple who have photographed their feet on travels around the world (I didn't copy them I swear!).. Its a nice read and I'm very jealous their feet have been to such beautiful places.. Happy Reading :)

Busy Feet

Over the last few weeks my shoes and I have been rushed off our feet. Several cross-country trips have been endured in our trusty yet very dirty little Fiesta and many scary tasks completed. Unfortunately, my last post was a negative in anticipation of the hell-ish week which was last week.. and yet when it actually arrived.. it was alright. I am yet to know the success or outcome of my meetings etc but I felt like I deserved a treat.. so I bought myself these little pink roses.

I know traditionally flowers should be bought by a man as a gift.. but you don't need a man to have pretty flowers. I deserved them so I bought them.. a motto I rely on too much (and probably why I have so many shoes).

Since the rubbish part of the week ended my comfy boots have taken me to some shops without much money spent luckily.. for my bank balance..and so what of next week? I need to keep my slippers on and get my head down on some work.. but that seems such a dull idea.

I think perhaps I'll just waste/reallocate time to playing with my little friend here. She's settled in well and is busy learning what she can bite, chew, attack, eat and sleep on.. it's a tough life. I think I want to swap.

P.S. A recent purchase of some new tights has left me to conclude that you don't need to pay big pennies for nice tights. I bought some black 150 dernier from Asda for £3 and they're looooovely.. get yourself some.
