These boots...

For my Christmas present Bud bought me cowboy boots. Which I sorely needed. So for the day before Christmas and most of yesterday, I went to at least 4 different stores trying on every style that even remotely spoke to me from the shelf. There was a pair of Luchesses I wanted badly but they were $250 and even I found the price tag hard to swallow. What I finally decided on was a dark red pair of Nacona's that are tighter than any other boot or shoe I have ever crammed my slightly-larger-than-I'd-like feet into. I don't think I have boat feet - even though Bud's dad yesterday asked me what size I needed, "a thirteen?" - but I do not either have a dainty Cinderella foot. Somewhere between Drizella and Cinderella I guess. Maybe I could be one of the didn't-work-out girlfriend's leading up to his fairytale meeting and wedding to Cinderella. Moving on. I got them small because my old boots have stretched out to a less than sexy size and I'd like these to make me look more like a cute cowgirl and less like a Sasquatch. When we get back I'll post pictures of both so you can a. see how cute my news one are and b. see what I'm talking about with my old (but oh so comfortable) ones.
