Sleepy

1. I'm tired.
2. I have no right to be tired as I accidentally fell asleep last night at 7:30 and got 12 hours of sleep.

3. I have a right to be tired since I've been moving furniture and miscellaneous stuff between the office and home since Saturday.

3a. The hubby hurt his back awhile ago so I haven't been letting him help much since I don't want to make it worse.

4. I'm emotionally tired from sending out resumes for the last month and being rejected.  A lot.

I finally feel like I have a minute to do a post, so I looked up sleepy shoes:

I love these!  I want a pair in my size, please.

I wish these were baby shoes.  The sleepy foxes are adorable, but I think they would be adorabler on baby shoes.

 

Or on socks.  I would wear these.

I can't decide if these are cute or creepy.

SO FLUFFY!!!!

And now I must go read for awhile before I head to bed.  I have an author interview next week and need to finish the book.  Hey, did you know that I have a book review podcast?  Well, I do, and I've been doing author interviews lately, which have been a lot of fun.  I've gotten to read books I might not otherwise, and I get to talk to awesome authors about books.  How can I not love that?  Now I just need to work on not sounding like such a dork when I'm interviewing.  If you want to check out the podcasts you can click on the link above.

What?

I didn't post on this holiday last year, but decided I couldn't pass it up a second time.  Because today is Cow Milked While Flying in an Airplane Day.  There really is a holiday for everything!  In honor of this momentous and historic occasion I give you cow shoes, of course!

These are hilarious.  Do they look less like mouths when there are feet in them or does it then look like the cows are eating your feet?

Holy cow indeed.

These are cute and also kind of strange.

 

I would wear either of these to a cow themed event, depending on how formal it was.

The PB could go with me!  Why are the cows green, though?

I hope you find a way to celebrate this crazy holiday.  I don't drink milk, but if I did, milk and cookies would seem a delightful choice.

Dinos

Ugh...it's been a day.  The roller coaster continues and I don't know how much longer I can be on this ridiculous ride.  Except I always say that and then there's always something else that happens that enables me to continue for just a little longer.  Could it just be a little flatter, though?  Do the lows have to be so darn low?  We were expecting some good news this week, and while we didn't get complete bad news, we got delaying news.  I know, this is vague, but I can't give you the details.  I would appreciate whatever prayers/good thoughts you have to give.  Adulting is hard.  Adulting is a stupid word, but that doesn't make it any less hard.

For no connected reasons, dinosaur shoes are cheering me up today:

I love them all.  I think I need the slippers.  How could I be sad wearing those?  Thanks in advance for the prayers or thoughts or whatever your belief system supports.  I'm lucky to have you in my life and with me on this journey.

Deer

There is a group of deer that wanders in and around the parents' yard:

This is from the front porch.  Yes, the neighbors have a caboose.

This is the back porch.

And this is the backyard.  Aren't they sweet?  I don't have to live here, so I love seeing them and watching them.  Mom and Dad do have to live here, so they are less enamored with the deer pooping in the yard and eating everything.

Obviously tonight's shoes shall be deer themed:

 

Why does this shoe have a hood ornament?

These are actually pretty sweet, but I would have to have a very specific occasion for which to wear them.

 

Awwww.  I love these.  Still can't think of where I would wear them, though.

But wherever it is, the PB could also go.

Yay, deer AND Christmas!  Or not, but they kind of look Christmas-y to me.

What is even happening here?  These make the hood ornament shoe look sane.  I...like the color...?

Much better.  I couldn't leave you with the insanity above.

Today was awesome.  The auntie, seester, Double A, Bean, Flower, and Laughter came over for a crafternoon.  The seester and I crocheted, Double A painted rocks, and everyone else kind of rotated around through various crafts.  It was a lot of fun.  The auntie and seester went home before it got dark, but Double A and the Bean just left and Laughter and Flower are having a sleepover.  Not a bad way to spend the 5th Day of Christmas, if I do say so myself.

Trolls

This weekend the movie was Trolls.  I worked concessions for The Bean Friday night and yesterday afternoon since she was at a sleepover and then Mom asked me to work for her tonight.  I thought it was cute.  There are many ways I picture trolls, depending on the context.  For these trolls the picture in my head from childhood is this:

I can never decide if they're ugly or cute or some combination thereof. I actually think it's supposed to be the combination.

 

This is what they look like in the new movie.  Much cuter, still kind of weird.  So tonight's shoes are troll shoes, of course:

 

This one looks more like the old school trolls.  I like the colors.

Gaaah...troll butt!

So much pink.  Which actually works for the movie and that character, who is always talking about rainbows and cupcakes.

 

This guy is grumpy through most of the movie.  Poor boys get the grumpy guy because he's blue.  Rude.

 

Heehee.  That hair is hilarious and I think it would tickle.

These are adorably ugly.  I don't think they PB needs these.

There you go. Trolls shoes.  I'm sure your life has been enriched.

Snow!

Ahhh...It finally snowed here.  Not a lot, maybe 5 inches, but it's sticking and it was snowing this morning in big, beautiful, lazy flakes:

So tonight's shoes are inspired by the snow, and picked out by Flower:

We both thought this was hilarious.  It's a wedding shoe.  A winter wedding I get.  These shoes?  Not so much.

Now these I would wear for a winter wedding.

We also thought this was hilarious.  A red tennie with snowflakes is one thing, but one with a yeti on the back is awesome!

Also wedding shoes.  They said they were blue, but we both thought they looked green.  Maybe it's the light?  What color do they look to you?

I love these.  I would like a pair, please.  And I really hope this is a pair and not a single shoe from 2 different pairs.

I also love these.  Didn't Flower did a good job of choosing shoes?

Speaking of Flower, I'm at the seester's for a few days, so I get to hang out with this set of nieces.  We've had a lovely day. We went shopping for their Christmas dresses (which are adorable) and caught up on the Advent Calendar, and did a lot of giggling.  Not a bad way to spend a snowy Saturday.

Snowflake Slippers

I'm really tired and it's supposed to snow this weekend, so here are some snowflake slippers:

Short and sweet tonight. Night, all.

Werewolves

Today is not a good day.  On the plus side, it's raining!  Yay!  On the not plus side, I'm being blamed for something that's only partially my fault.  So I'm pissy about the not my fault part, and horribly guilty and depressed for the part that is.  Today's Halloween-themed shoes are werewolves because they are whimsical enough to cheer me up and they also match the growly, grumpy, transformative (ie wishy washy) part of me.

See? These are funny.  They make me smile.

These also make me smile because someone made DIY werewolf shoes.

These are OK, nothing that great really, until...

...you see the bottoms.  They make werewolf footprints!  I would wear them just for that.

These came in this style, in mules, boots, booties, flipflops, and possibly tennis shoes, and they are all a world of no.  I really like my Halloween to more whimsical and less graphic.

Like this.  I would wear these right now and my feet would be snuggly and happy.

Hopefully I will also be snuggly and happy at some point during the day.  Grrr...stupid guilt.
