In Trouble

It wasn't a good day today. After looking at our bank statement (never a good idea at this time of year having had Diwali, my youngest's birthday, xmas, my eldest's birthday and my birthday all within 3 months), my husband decided to bite the bullet and ask how many pairs of shoes I have.
I didn't actually know!
My middle child (going off her a bit) then decided it would be fun to COUNT MY SHOES. And the result?... They're still counting. Good luck finding them all - ha!
So in the meantime, I thought I would use the free time to run a little poll - has anyone done one yet? Thought I'd give it a go because looks like it's going to be a long night in the Kang household!

My dear Nina
I did not have three thousand pairs of shoes, I had one thousand and sixty.
In my opinion, one needs at least 3 pairs of shoes for every day of the year, or even 4 in case of rain. One should never wear the same pair of shoes twice. ( rather like underwear ) Much too common :shock:
Personally, when one husband goes bankrupt or gets deposed, I just find a replacement ( one can never have too many shoes or husbands :!: )
Good luck with your poll
Yours sincerely

You wimmin shouldn't be allowed out on your own.. You're deadly.. :shock:
You only need one pair of comfy trainers, a smart pair of shoes and some novelty slippers, set for life

One thing is for certain, if I COULD wear them I'd buy them. Sadly very few shoes fit me or are comfortable so I don't bother looking.

Never allow yourself to be made a victim.

I think muslin rags would suffice, as Del said, if your in the house you don't need anything else, plus, a bit of polish on the kitchen floor tiles and hey presto, you're cleaning the floor as you wash up/iron/put things away/fetching me my Dangermouse slippers and mi tea :shock:
Wimmin eh?? Never happy :eek:Me-Tony

I think you should have as many as you can afford or want. I personally HATE shoe shopping as i have very narrow feet and have trouble finding shoes or sandals that fit. You need sandals for the summer, shoes, boots for the winter, walking shoes/boots, going out sandals, going out shoes....high heeled shoes(for the ladies or gents!!! that can wear then) flat shoes for comfort and some in between. Ummm thats one wardrobe full.0
