OMG! I laughed so hard when I read this. And then started giggling every time I thought about it later.
You are my kind of girl!
(the Kittens DID get voted off the island).

Looking very forward to the report. Here is my quick shoe story. We moved in July of 2010. Put our house on the market April 16 2010. Left for Mexico April 15 2010. Live in Winnipeg where one needs winter boots and shoes..............long story short, went to look for my "fancy" boots and winter shoes for my 15 year old to wear to a Christmas event in December of 2010.........NO LUCK!!!!! After days and nights of searching we concluded that they went out as the last thing in my closet. Dear hubby must have got the "to move" pile mixed up with the "to donate to charity" pile. Thank God, I didn't have 91 pairs Andrea, but man there was a chunk of change invested in that green garbage bag.............

I am grateful for small things. I had major surgery in November of 2010, so was in no mood for my "fancy" boots over the holidays..........will look for bargains now that I am feeling better!

I hope you're on the mend.
I think I might just have had to hurt my husband if he ever threw out my shoes. Then I'd go replace them all

Who wants to take bets Andrea didn't do the carry-on?

thejillybean · 01-27-2011

OK - this is SUCH a "girl" thing...3 pages of the pending trip and the SHOES!!!!!

I LOVE it!!! See, we do have that gene that makes these decisions so difficult! Oh and Actran, please get some new ones so we can all drool!!!

And do the carry-on... I've done it many many times - last year unbeknownst to me - the flight attendants had bets that my carry-on would NOT fit in the over-head??!! WHAT??? Of course it did - I did need a little help getting it down but it did fit! NEVER doubt what a gal can do...ever!!!

Can't wait to hear all about your wonderful trip w/your friend

Have a blast!!!

Impressive. I can't do that as a guy. (And I only own 5 pairs of shoes TOTAL.) That includes winter boots.

I can't wait for your TR! Always fun and sexy.

Of course. I dont expect people to believe such an amazing feat without photographical evidence.

I have never met you but I love to read your trip reports. I was in Pier 1 several weeks ago, saw those napkins and thought of you!!! I am glad you bought them!! I would have bought them for you....if I knew I would ever see you!!!!

Emmylousue · 02-14-2011

I'm beginning to wonder if Andrea just stayed down in PDC with Karen and her shoes???

MN Rose · 02-14-2011

I'm just hoping she didn't do the unthinkable and *gasp* cheat on her shoes by purchasing more without their permission. Time will tell!

actran · 02-14-2011

No, sadly I did not stay down there. I have started to write my trip report on my blog. I will post it here, but I have to keep my blog readers happy or they won't come back. And its not just cut and paste because of the pictures You can check it out there if you don't want to wait. I'm always happy to have more readers

I, my shoes, Karen and her shoes all had a great time. It was over too quick though and freakin' freezing when I got home.
