Converse-tastic

Its been a Converse-tastic year so far and I just wanted to post some pics of my lovely shoes.  I havent bought new converse for about 5 years but they have got so holey now that I decided I had to.   I was incentivised by my sons new converse, bought as they cant be easily kicked off (and lost) whilst in a buggy.  But also, the States seems to bring about more Converse wearing in me than I would at home (out side the summer months - eg sandal weather) they are the mode de jour. Anyhow, at home it rains too much and I would probably have wet feet a lot if I wore them as much as here.  Incidently, so far this year, apart from a couple of freak days where the weather was in the 80s (late 20s) the weather is VERY similar to home, just without all the rain......

Anyhow, MY first 2 pairs of Converse came about by accident, I went in to buy one pair and had finally decided on the burgandy low tops, to replace the black low tops that had fallen off my feet (not converse actually but a Dunnes replica that cost only 4 pounds!!!!), but then I was seduced and finally persuaded when the woman in the shop told me if I bought a second pair I would get $10 off.  How could I resist!!  So I got a pair of  black hi tops :-)

That was about a month ago now, and guess what, for my birthday someone bought my a GREEN pair of high tops, just like son#3.  How fanfriggintastic is that!!!  Am totally Conversed up now for the next wee while.

Am going to do some hooking now, been off the boil with it of late.  Not feel the Very Best, but more about that later.....
