Summer is here…. so a girl needs a new pair of shoes or two.

Yep, I'm going gladiator on your ass.

So I bought these shoes… they were a splurge.  I see it kind of like a hey good work on the play present to myself.  I also needed some sandal for our big trip in July.  But it’s me so…any justification will do.  I also bought some flip flops because I know how good they are for my feet.

Speaking of shoes… my sister-in-law is in Cote D’Ivoire, Africa for work.  And my brother is in Argentina.  I am getting the MAJOR travel bug… and I don’t think that Colorado will scratch the itch.  I am feeling some anxiety due to this- kinda trapped- although I know I am not really.  I am hoping the Gates Foundation opens up a job for a highly trained costume designer deep in Africa somewhere, for a job that will save the planet (ahhhhh!)
