Today's the day I've been dreading

I have to put on shoes for the first time in 3 weeks.

As  you can see, my toe is still a fat little sausage. 

(yeah.....I know it's blurry)

 

We're at the point now where I can go a couple of days a week and it doesn't hurt.  But then, there's still days where it still aches and pains me.  I've been very, very careful with it and trying not to bump it into something or have someone step on it.

I bought new shoes and I need to get them broke in before we leave on Saturday.

I love these shoes.  They are so light and comfortable.  I love them so much that I now have 2 of them in different colors.

The black ones look somewhat dressy when paired with jeans and a nice shirt.....and yet my feet are so comfortable for all the walking we'll do. 

The white ones are daytime wear with my shorts.  Now that I've impressed you with my style techniques, we'll just move along now.

Yesterday I spent a good deal of time making reservations and booking stuff that we still needed in NYC.  I wanted to go inside the statue of Liberty, but they limit how many tickets they sell for that....so I was able to get one on the last day we are there.  Not doing the crown....just inside the pedestal.  And since we'll be in that area of Manhattan to take the ferry, I bought our tickets for the 9/11 Museum for that same day and we'll do that in the morning before going to Ellis Island in the afternoon.  Also had to have tickets for the Eilen Jewell concert that we are attending Tuesday night.

Tickets, tickets, tickets.....still need to get transportation set up for Newark, NJ airport into Manhattan. 

Lots of thing to get accomplished this week, so I really shouldn't be wasting my time here....I'll just move along and see how many things I can get done.

And in other news......the husband decided that late yesterday afternoon would be a good time to drain the spa, wipe it down, and refill it.  However, this was how far we got.  Need to get out there later this evening and finish the job.....in my "spare time".
