I had a chance to order a new pair of shoes recently, and foolishly I ordered a size larger than usual. They worked fine for half a year, but now my heels are starting to bleed and are painful at night.
I remember my brother Rudy who had such a bad foot he couldn’t walk, which made his last days miserable. I think I need to get rid of the shoes and maybe see a doctor about the bleeding. No sense in tempting fate. It’s amazing how easily we upset the apple cart.
My prayer now is that I think straight and don’t give in to whimsy. Why was I ordering by mail order if I couldn’t keep the facts straight?
