My poor boots! I love my boots to death… literally. I bought them 2 years ago for $10 on clearance. I wore them the entire time I was walking with the cane, though, so when they wore down they did so in the shape of my crooked gait.

Now that I’m walking almost normally, the boots are actually throwing me off balance. I really need a new pair, but I haven’t found the one yet. I’m definitely choosy about my shoes.

Boots make me feel tougher somehow. Braver. I don’t like wearing anything else.
