Who Knew Laundry Was So Tiring?

I am so very far behind on so very many things in life right now. Some days I feel like I'm so far behind eventually I'm going to come around and encounter myself. So, of course I'm writing a blog post instead of actually accomplishing things. Tonight I'm blaming this stupid cold that's continuing to hang around. In good news, it's not affecting my lungs as much, which is good, but I've blown my nose so many times I think it might fall off at some point. The hubby is also sick and has spent the entire day in bed. I managed to get up and go to the store earlier, but have spent a good chunk of the day in bed as well. In the last hour I folded laundry and cleaned the kitchen and now I'm exhausted. This cold is no joke. 

I figured looking at shoes would cheer me up and wouldn't involve a lot of energy, and I was right. I typed in "laundry shoes" and found a brand called Chinese Laundry. I really like these two pairs:

They're all the things I like: Blue! Stripes! Wedges! Ankle strap! I rarely wear heels anymore, but I still very much like to look at them.

Well, it's 8:30 and time to sleep, or at least read for awhile and then sleep.

Birthday Shoes

It's been a minute since I've posted. OK...it's been more than a year and a half. There were a lot of reasons I stopped posting, and I don't know how often I'll post now, but I've been having the urge to do so for awhile and figured I'd give it another go. Plus, my mama gave me some money for my birthday and I got new sandals, so clearly this is a reason to post!

They aren't anything fancy, but they're comfortable and they'll be great for summer (which is already here...it's been almost 90 the last 2 days). I also learned something interesting with these shoes: You know how I HATE the thing between my toes on flip flops. Welllll...apparently the heel strap helps mitigate the annoyance. Who knew?

In other news, I have a post-Easter cold. I got a nasty sore throat on Tuesday and now I'm coughing gunk out of my lungs. I used to almost always get sick after Christmas and Holy Week when I was a pastor, but maybe my body just doesn't like high holy days, even as a lay person. 😄
