My hubby Tom* and I are both collectors of soles – I love all kinds of feminine shoes, and he’s hung up enough about sneakers that he even names the ones he’s got.
We have so much footwear that we have a whole room dedicated for storage, and even then, we’ve had our “stockpile” spill over to the living room and bedroom. Since we have no children at the moment, they have become our precious ones. However, my love for all our beloved shoes is not equal – I have kicked some of his “kicks” out of the house!
It started some months ago when I went on a shopping frenzy, and bought boxes of pumps and stilettos. I realised quickly enough while staring at our shoe “boutique” that we didn’t have enough space to keep them all. Some of our “kids” had to go! At first, I decided to throw away a few empty shoe boxes to make space. I was happy, and my latest picks of the season looked happy, since they were nicely displayed and not cramped on the shelves. Then I came across my husband’s old jogging shoes, which looked sad and shabby next to my shiny new pumps. Surely, my hubby would not notice, or mind, if I disposed of such a dirty pair, I thought. Into the chute they went that day.
