Ok, so for the second time, in my adult life anyway, I have gone out, in public with two different shoes on my feet. I hear you allll laughing now trust me, but I gotta tell you, it is a little bit scarey if you think about it. Sunday morning was clicking along just fine until I was crossing the church parking lot and noticed just as I reached the door, that I was in fact wearing two entirely different shoes on my feet. They were both black, and both slip on but past that, completely different. I quickly realized I could not go forth and turned my daughter around, hind sight, I should has sent her in alone as she had matching shoes on her feet, but returned to the car wondering if this is how it all starts. You know, where did I leave the car, why are there two different shoes on my feet, who are you and where am I? Just sayin' when you have a father that dies in the grip of Alzheimers it makes you watch yourself just a little bit closer. My teen age daughter laughed all the way to my sisters house, after asking me, Mom is it ok to tell Auntie? Of course dear, lets just show Auntie how abouts, after all she had the same father. My sister of course laughed her head off as well and as only a sister with similar tastes could do, offered me the left shoe of her pair that were just like mine. I am thinking I am going to start buying all my clothes and shoes the same as my sister just in case, what do you think? By that time the joy of the church service past and decided to continue home. I'm glad I made my sister and daughters day with a good laugh. It is part of my job after all.
Oh, and the first time? I had chemo brain at the time to blame it on and that was 11 years ago. I don't think I can really still use that excuse. I showed up for my daily radiation treatment and afterward, before I left on my way to work, the very nice tech informed me I had two different tennis shoes on. BTW, I went to work like that, who cares right? What a goober I am.
Lots of people around the world don't even wear shoes, so how important are they really? Just askin'
So, how was your day?
Omg. yeah that was the best!!!
