Sometimes I can be slow on the uptake of information. Take today for instance. I have been wearing the same brand of summer sandals for several years. They seem to go well with my summer clothes. I can order them on line knowing that they will fit out of the box, or so it seemed. I seem to get calluses and blisters on the same spots on my feet every year that are quite painful. Today I had that ah ha moment when I put 2 and 2 together. It was the summer sandals causing the blisters and calluses. They went away while I was wearing my winter clogs. Then came back just two weeks into the sandal season.
I was too tired and sore after one hour of gym time to go shopping for sandals today. So I will try again later in the week to get some flat sandals that don’t hurt my feet. I still have shoes to wear; however, my back does not like to wear high heels all the time. Thirty years of care giving has done a number on my back that retirement can’t fix. So I wear flats whenever possible.
In the meantime I am wearing my felted wool winter slippers around the house. They are actually not that hot. I will need to be more careful about my shoe selection this time around. I am hoping to find a few pairs of flats and a pair of slippers too. Wish me luck in this endeavor.
