Shine Up My Boots

I’ve grown weary of buying cheap boots locally that fall apart after wearing them a few times, so I made it a point to shop for a trusted brand during our trip to Texas a few weeks back. (Meanwhile, Holden wandered around an area of the store he called “J.R. Ewing’s walk-in closet,” but didn’t make a purchase.) I felt so fancy in these that I decided to break out the sequined panty, just to give the boots a worthy partner.

On the way home from our trip, Holden and I talked extensively about the pros and cons of making a big move and, in the end, we have decided to relocate to the Texas Triangle. We have a metric fuck-ton of things to do before moving, so we set a realistic goal of Memorial Day, 2025. In addition to paring down drastically the sheer amount of STUFF we have, we need to invest in some improvements that will help us get the maximum value from our house. It’s just too big for only two people. And seeing our precious grandsons only once or twice a year is simply unbearable.

So we hope y’all will bear with us if our captions are sometimes brief, going forward. Our weekends are going to be busy! ~C

    SO EXCITED FOR YOU! Work yes, but another life adventure to experience and enjoy!

    We look forward to hearing (and SEEING) more of your journey in the coming months! ๐Ÿ’œ

    P.S. Love your pics! ๐Ÿ’‹

      Thanks so much, Krystal! And so glad to hear that y’all are enjoying your new place! We just know the hard work will be worth it, come next year, and trading a bustling metro area for a much smaller town will suit our (aging) personalities to a T. ๐Ÿ™‚ ~C

      Thank you! We met with a kitchen remodeler today, and it’s the first time in a while that we’re looking forward to scribbling a big check! (Or cheque…) ๐Ÿ˜‰ ~C
