Day 29

I bought red shoes today. More of a ripe strawberry than a tomato red.

They are sensible shoes, flat soled for walking on pavements or in the rain.

I don’t wear much red so they won’t go with anything. They will clash - I hope.

They have to be wide fitting for my wide feet. And they are very comfortable. They have lines of stitching along the sides curving up over the toes. So not completely plain.

I’ve always envied people with dainty feet who can wear elegant strappy sandals, high heels, patent leather boots - even for a night.

But now the red on my feet can remind my heart that sensible has its place but wild is where I’m heading.
