Default Wow, blisters from the sand!

Hey Deb... Who would think that would happen! I think I'm going to learn from your lesson. I can't stand the feeling of the sand on my feet anyway, they are so sensitive to anything. I even hate it if I get sand inside my shoes with socks on!

I've "just now" started wearing sandals again. I've had PN for six years. However, the thing I find that bothers me is, wearing shoes without socks, when your feet stick to the shoes, it feels like the skin is being ripped off when the shoe separates from your foot.

It's like wearing shorts and sitting on a vinyl seat for an hour, then getting up, and your skin feels as if it's being ripped... that's how my feet feel when I wear shoes without socks, like sandals. AAAAAhhhhhhhggggg!

For me it's the opposite...without socks, my feet feel wet when they really aren't. Isn't it strange how we all have differences and are still the same?

I actually love the feel of sand on my feet on the beach, not in my shoes though. I used to be the barefoot queen! Now, I'm rarely barefoot
