Well okay. Yes, I have issues. Installment 87

We had spent a couple of months in Florida, and I was nearly in panic mode. Would I be able to get through the trip with the (three, I think) pairs of running shoes that I had left with? Not only that, how would I manage to run when I got home with only used-up old shoes?

Internet to the rescue! Spotting an online sale, I ordered some that would arrive home just before we did (daughter Veronica was able to intercept them for me). Whew, that was a close one.

To prevent any such a near-disaster from occurring again, I began to stockpile shoes as opportunities presented themselves. Now I have nine in boxes, besides the four that are currently in active duty. 

Call it the Strategic Shoe Reserve.

And don't tell me I have issues. I already know.
