These Boots Are Made for Walking

I am so excited!!!! Two-three weeks ago I went to Savers to look for some sweaters to go with the 20 pairs of jeans that I have been saving for the past 7 years. My plan is not to spend alot of money on clothes that I won't be wearing for long due to the quick changes that are happening. Anyways, anyone that knows me, knows that shoes are my enemy. I can never find any that fits right. Recently found a pair of cute mary-janes at Kmart that are now my (Sheri Shoes) that people will see on a daily basis. I love when I find Sheri Shoes( sorry went off topic).

I desperately covet the look of boots that are the current style right now. Alas my feet and calves don't agree and they just haven't been in the cards for me. Plus I can't afford to spend 100 dollars on boots when the holidays are around the corner.

Well, the store was calling my name and I decided to walk to the back of the store to the shoe section. I turn the corner and there is a pair of brown tall boots with a $6.99 price tag and they look like they have never been worn. "Oh my G-d they are my size" but are they going to zip? I get them on but the zipper only goes up to midcalf. That is what boot-cut jeans are for, to cover the part that doesn't zip. I am buying these boots because I know they are going to zip eventually.

So for the past three weeks I keep thinking about the boots in my closet waiting for me. This morning I think to myself," Sheri, put the friggin boots on and see what happens and if worse case happens the zipper still stays at midcalf."

I slowly start the zipper and realize it is going to go all the way up. I have had my first non-scale victory and now I am on the hunt for a skirt to go with my brown boots. Yeah me!!!!
