A bad shoe day

Do you remember the C.andies shoes that O.livia wore in the closing scene of G.rease? The fantastic red mules on the wooden soles?

To die for.

They were reintroduced several years ago, and naturally I had to have me some of that. They were no longer on wooden soles, however. Now they are plastic, and they are slippery, especially on waxed floors of grocery stores.

Last night The Boy and I were shopping on our way home at the end of our day. I had told him of my incident in the morning where I slipped and fell on the stairs. While moving to take something off a shelf, my heel slipped and my foot came out from under me. I caught myself on the shopping cart.

The Boy looked at me, and with all seriousness said, "Mom, are you forgetting how to walk?'
