tale of the sole.

********

the last line of my blog manifesto states

i wear boots with everything. 

those of you who know me well know this to be quite true. 
i wear boots every day while out-and-about. 
i wear boots while on duty as a nurse. 
yes.

recently, it was time to invest in new footwear. 

moving past the tales of an old injury to my knee, sustained while 

sledding down woolston hill many winters ago, 

and a wonky SI joint, 

my body is happy only when wearing minimalist shoes. 

i define this as no heel and walking very close to the earth. 

my closest friends also know that i refer to myself as a hobbit. 

i'm short, will never be elven-thin, 

and i am almost always in a dress, leggins, a scarf, wool socks, and boots. 

so when i found myself in need of new winter footgear, 

i turned to my favourite brand - trippen - and my favourite shoe boutique - 

pedshoes. 

dayna fixed me right up with not-one-but-two pairs of trippen boots. 

these boots are an investment, but also is taking care of my body, my spirit, my soul. 

and i proudly tell everyone who asks - 

these are trippen boots….hand-made in germany….

sold online at www.pedshoes.com.

thank you, dayna….

thank you from my heart 

down to my happy little hobbit soles….
