Miscellany

MucinexDM for the win! The pills are the size of horse pills and taste like ass, but I'm not coughing, not wheezing, and I have my voice back. WHOO HOO!

Also, these shoes:

are the cutest things evar. Tarzhay has them in black as well. I think I will go with this shoe:

for my black ankle boot needs. Although, this one

is pretty damn cute, too, but I didn't see it at my local Target.

While at Home Depot last night, I strolled through the garden department and drank in the aroma of evergreens. I definitely want to get real evergreen garland for the banister and an evergreen spray for the front door. I am ready to go nuts with the Christmas and winter decorations. First, though, we have to clean the house. It's frightening how badly the place falls apart when I'm down with illness for a month.

Ooo sweet shoes!

And fairly comfy, too!

You didn't just happen to notice whether any of them comes in wide, did you?

I have wide feet, although they aren't super wide, and I didn't notice anything designating special 'wide' shoes.

The first shoe felt good when I went up a 1/2 size from my regular size and the second shoe felt good when I went up a whole size from my regular size. I haven't tried the third shoe yet.

Hrrrrrrm... Bummer... I've tried that up-a-half-size trick before, and it usually doesn't work well enough for me; I don't cope well with the extra length. :-/

Ah, well — if I went and got a cool new pair of halfboots, then I'd have to go find some cool new clothes to show them off anyway...

Shoe love! But I probably can't wear them because Tarzhey shoes usually run wide and I have skinny, skinny feets. But that won't stop me from looking.

Those are awesome!

Mucinex is the best thing since NyQuil. And it doesn't knock you on your butt.

Those are cute! How are they on padding on the insoles? I tend to dr scholl the heck out of anything that isn't by Easy Spirit.

The insoles are fairly thin, to be honest.

Drat. I always have rotten luck with the balls of my feet in any heels, even low ones (and thick toes, so if I pad them too much, I can't get my feet in at all).

But they ARE adorable. ^_^

These are all lovely! I don't suppose they've got anything similar with shorter heels?

I didn't see any ankle boots with decorations with shorter heels. I think some of the plain boots were shorter.
