Shoes? boots? socks? what are those? I feel your pain!

Ah Sleeper, you get it! But shoes and women have a bond that goes beyond comprehension!!! I have it and don't fully understand it.

LOL, I have had the same wallet for over 20 years! Shoes and purses don't compute.

I miss my pedicures. I won't go bare footed unless my toes are done but no way to have that done now. I miss wearing sandals in the summer SO much!

My rollator is quiet...it's just me lumbering behind it that makes so much noise.

My cane is similar to the "HurryCane" only the base has 4 rubber feet instead of 3. The swivel of the base is a little noisy, but I don't mind being annoying to others...lol

I can't stand socks or shoes. I can't wear long pants either. I manage to wear slide on sandals (no heal strap) and flip flops...I am from the south and we do like our flip flops...lol
