Memory Monday...Black Boots

*Disclaimer*  My brain is obviously not happy these days (sleep deprivation I guess) so this is another wacky post.  Good luck my friends.

I am having a hard time sleeping these days.  So tonight I thought I would do stuff on my computer.  I was remembering that on the way to church this morning I realized that I needed to buy a new pair of tall black boots for fall and winter.   I typically wear boots to church during these seasons.  I've been doing some shopping online.  Last year I noticed that my black pair of boots had a tear developing just above the heal.   Bummer!  I really liked those boots.  Spring was on its way so I put buying new boots off until closer to when I needed them.  So now I have the two ingredients for my memory Monday...church and boots.

This memory goes back many years when I was still doing the music in primary.  Dave was in the bishopric and I was trying to get children, myself, and primary ready for 9 o'clock church by my self.  Not my favorite mornings.  I'm not sure how it happened because I certainly don't get dressed in the dark.  But I walked out the front door wearing one black boot on the left foot and one brown boot on the right.  Nobody said a word to me.  I went all through primary like that.  One of the Sunbeam teachers said she noticed but thought it was on purpose for primary.  Not sure what I could possibly have used that visual for.  When I got home and realized what I had done I was so embarrassed, but I was also laughing.  You have to admit, it was really fumy.  Needless to say, I am more careful when I put on my boots to make sure they are both matching.

Tonight while shopping I found the perfect boots to replace my old ones.  There will be no way I can mix them up now.  These boots are suede.  I can't wait for them to get here.
