I've been in trouble a lot lately, which is nothing new....remember the Ambien misadventure? That was just one misadventure in a long line of misadventures. Oh well, I'm me and that's just the way it goes. I'm damn near 50; it's not likely my personality is going to change 180 degrees any time soon.
But today I made another realization, something my husband has been trying to get me to realize for years now. He does this by leaving a three and a half pile of shoes in front of the bedroom door so I have to step over them or trip on them and break my neck. I guess I could move them, but I have mentioned I'm stubborn too?
I have this really bad habit. Yeah, I know, who would have thought right? Well I have this habit of taking my shoes off when I come in the house. I don't know why. I'm certainly not trying to protect my carpet, it looks like I've raised a freaking cattle farm in my living room, and in a way I guess I have. It's probably just the Texas girl in me and I can't stand shoes on my feet any longer than need be. The problem is that I leave them where ever they happen to come off.
Every morning I search the entire upstairs for the shoes I knew I left in my bedroom. HA! I never leave my shoes in my bedroom. And my closet, well forget that. I have a PILE of shoes that I frantically search through every damn day. I pick up and throw shoe after shoe only to realize the ones I want aren't there.
This morning on my daily hunt I realized just how bad my habit was. So you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to show you. So ready or not here we go and remember, just remember, this is on a good day.

| Just one. That's odd. |
 |
| Oh, there's the other one in a pile of some more. |
 |
| Love these. |
 |
| Not sure why I didn't put these back in the box? |
 |
| Rainboots, this is Oregon, remember? |
 |
| Gross, wear everywhere sandals |

But on my way out of the house this morning after looking for the shoes I wanted:
 |
| Finally found them under a table and a chair in the living room. |
|
|
Anyway after I found them I was out of the door in a whirlwind to make my doctor appointment and I saw this:
 |
| None of these are mine. |
 |
| Neither are these. |
These were all in the entry way. I guess the difference is that I leave mine
ALL OVER THE HOUSE.
PLEASE tell me I'm not alone!
