I don’t want for anything. Well, peace and quiet would be nice somedays or a faster internet service, but generally I lack nothing. So when Ben and I were shopping for ceiling fans I was surprised when he wanted to get me this.
In fact, I was hiding in the shoe aisle when he went to get it. Muttering something about I don’t think the slipper is gonna fit Cinderella and crouching to keep my head down so the shoe salesman wouldn’t see me trying to stuff my size nine into what felt like a five. (You know what Dolly Pardon says right? I wear a seven, but an eight feels so good– I buy a nine. Or something like that.) Anyway.
With help from that embarssing shoe horn I was able to get the glass slipper on. It felt good after I did. Ben insisted on getting the shoe horn for me. Gee thanks, Honey. A mother’s day I won’t soon forget.
Then he presented me with these.
Now back me up on this… those boots are made for spoilin’. I’m frugal, I wouldn’t buy those for myself –ever. But he would. I think they are cool in a dude sort of way. The kind of boot you have to be tough enough to wear. Cause you’re gonna take some lip for them–like you best get up to yer fighting weight–type of thing.
“I think they’re sexy,” he said. ”You can wear them to bed. Besides, you need something to use that shoe horn on.”
He’s so romantic. I think he wants to try to make me a mother again…some more.
Did you getting showered with unique mother’s day gifts this year? I hope so.

Dang…and all I got was a gift certificate for a pedicure! So what is he saying? My feet are ugly?!
I’m still crackng up about wearing them to bed…it could be worse!
Hooooly Smacks those are cute!
Is the accent in black or dark brown?? I Love a boot with both options…black or brown!
No kiddin! I think they’re smokin’.
When can I come out and try them on and accidentally put them in my truck and accidentally drive away, forgetting they were in the back of my truck and not discover them there until I’m 4 hours away, which is WAY too long to drive them back to return them to you and shipping is so high I’d have to keep them until next time I see you?? What size did you say they were??????
I think I can almost smell them.
Those boots look like they mean business. Seriously cool boots! Happy Mother’s Day!
Methinks the boots & the Man be keepers! BTW wear them to bed!
“These boots are made for walkin’, and that’s just-a-what they’ll do”.
Michelle~a pedicure, I’d take that, too. Very nice. Any kind of pampering will do, right?
Aunt Sissy~ they are black and tan (like the bluegrass song) with some muted copper at the top. Somehow I don’t think they will be available for you to try on while you’re here. They will be MIA.
Julie~nice to see you. Your website scared me at first–thought you were a staulker. Ha. Was I ever wrong.
Cake~oh honey, they are. And…I’ll take your advice.
Thanks for stopping gals.

I am jealous! I have been beggin for some boots! Love them!!! I got a ‘sorry honey I was busy and didn’t get you anything’ for Mother’s Day. Oh well I got lots of hugs though.
