The One that Got Away


I've been on the lookout for a simple pair of black oxford shoes for months now with no luck. I stopped by the Salvation Army yesterday afternoon on the way home from a walk with Clover. At last, I found one! Perfect fit and everything... yay, right?... wrong... I found one...ONE... as in ONE shoe! I searched that thrift store high and low for its mate to no avail. ARGGGHHH!!! Oh thrift gods... why hath thou forsaken me? :(

Oh don't worry! It just means something better is about to come along.

Thanks Milla, you're totally right! It just struck me as kind of commical when I caught myself actually down on the floor looking under the clothing racks below where the shoes were. I must have looked like a nut.

I'm on the hunt for a pair of Oxford shoes too - no luck, though. Those puppies are elusive.

I agree with Milla - the universe obviously has something bigger and better planned :)
