PENSIEVE

Sunday, December 11

Walkin' on sunshine, yeah, yeah!

How much do I love it when I wear my very obnoxious Clemson crocs people can't help but notice my feet, and they SMILE?! And I find it utterly hilarious that I find myself looking for orange sweaters & shirts to go with THEM! Planning a wardrobe around a pair of plastic shoes....who would've ever thunk it?

I saw a "croc sister" wearing a pair of hot pinks at my kids' school. The boys were totally morified when I rolled down my window, took off a shoe and waved it at this total stranger. She "got" it, and grinned back.

Ummmm, don't knock 'em 'til you try 'em. They really are comfy and it's nice that something so benign can bring a little fun to your day. Hey, these days I'll take all the smiles I can get.

Everywhere, I mean EVERYWHERE we go,I see people in berkenstocks & flip-flops (zori).
We walked past a wedding in the park a few weeks ago -- formals & zories. What is this world coming to?

I'm now the proud owner of three pairs. One with holes for summer, a solid pair for winter and a rugged pair I received at Christmas to wear at the mountain house in Saluda, NC. I've just got to get those tiger paws for by summer pair.

Mountain house in Saluda, huh? Now I'm just jealous!
