Sadie sent me shopping for shoes last summer. She told me my shoes should not hurt my feet. And she recommended a couple of shoe manufacturers, but now I forget who they were. Anyway, I went to both of the different shoe stores she recommended, and I tried on dozens of shoes. I was looking for Mary Jane style with a heel for dress wear. I spent HOURS getting my feet analyzed, and on another day, HOURS trying to fit a certain pair of Mary Janes. He added heel pads, toe pads, arch supports, cushions, and just within 15 minutes of wear, in the store, they hurt my feet. I do not know how I ever worked in retail, 9 hours a day, in typical Nine West heels. Hmm, guess that didn't work out so well because I ended up with hammer toe surgery. Now that it is summer I can get away with sandals. I went to the grasshopper site, and there seems to be some fun styles. Also, my 93 year old great-aunt loves wearing Sketchers. Maybe I should live in the Bahamas wear I can wear sandals all day!
