well, it all started when we went to visit my sister-in-law in austin texas, in august. they were taking us to all the “big sights”……….of course, the alamo. then we went to a boot store, (because i am a shoe lover from way back!).
since both my husband’s and brother-in-law’s eyes started to roll back in their heads, we lead them to chairs to recover, and kathy and i started to look at rows and rows of beautiful boots!!
i of course, tired everything on they had in my size, when we both at the same time spied a pair of pink and green boots! “that’s them! i gotta have them!”
they were of the softest leather that i had ever felt in boots. they fit perfectly, they looked great, and the i LOVED them!
we showed them to “coma” and “tose” sitting in the chairs, and got the usual husband response. “yes, very nice dear”, until he actually looked and listened to what i was saying…….. “what are you going to do with those in CHICAGO?”
long story short, guess who didn’t get the pretty pink and green boots? yup.
needless to say, i pouted all the way to christmas, (that’s a good 4 months of pouting) until, there under the tree were my pink and green boots!
i guess, he’s not so bad after all.
