New Shoes

Brrrr it's FREEZING here today. We've had to turn on the heat in our apartment, and we haven't had to do that in a few weeks. It's cold and rainy in Adelaide. It's SNOWING in the mountains in Victoria. There is flooding in the eastern part of the country. Fantastic! Weather like this is always painful after a warm spell, but it looks like next week will be gorgeous again.

We still had a good day at work despite the gross weather yesterday. One of the guys in my office has a birthday today, so we bought mini cupcakes. I snapped a picture with them on my lap in the car, so that's why there is a glare.

They were cute and delicious.

This morning, Al and I looked at shoes at Jogger's World. He didn't buying anything, but I found a great pair of running shoes. I wasn't sure what kind of shoe I needed, but the people who worked there were so helpful. I took off my shoes and socks and walked on a treadmill while she observed my feet. It turns out that I have flat feet. I wonder why I never knew that? My feet are also extremely narrow- so narrow that I can't wear a lot of different shoe styles. Based on those two factors, she found an excellent pair of Asics for me.

They're narrow for my foot.

It's very important to get the right kind of shoe for your foot, so make you get it checked out if you're not sure. I think I learned the hard way. Isn't the tile on our kitchen floor breathtaking, by the way? It doesn't matter how much I scrub them; they are still that color.

I'll try them out as soon as I can run again. We're going out to celebrate a friend's birthday tonight , so I'll recap that tomorrow. I still can't get over how disgusting my tiles are!
