for Colonel Mustard) in the library
with a satin Slingback...

Yes, darlin. There we were, minding our own business, thunder and lightening all around.
Then we saw Light and at the same time a huge crack of Thunder and POP...we were hit!
One minute Pup was lying on the floor by the sofa, the next he was sitting next to me On the sofa.
He has not left my side since, I have a feeling that he is not there to guard me.
Just think, it is Hurricane season too, what fun!
I will be sure to keep an extra pair of shoes with me at all times

Thank you
My daughter has two greyhounds and they whine and whimper every time it thunders. I was so proud of Pup, he is a City dog and thunder and noise never seemed to bother him....not anymore!
He is glued to my side even more than ever ((&))
Good thing I love him and the Yankee does too He was in bed with us this morning LOL

Faina, I believe Pup is already an honorary fodors member, having been the subject of many, many threads.

Marilyn,
Manolo doesn't make 13.5 EEEs?
Darn! And here I got this black little outfit....

Who's Iron? :-?

Scarlett-Go to a golf store and buy a 1 iron. Have The Yank put it atop your house because even God can't hit a 1 iron. (Thanks you, Lee Trevino)

Is there a website for shoe exchange like the ones for book exchange? Maybe her shoe is still sitting in some designated place?

Missed this thread the first time around. What a good laugh (except if you are the one missing a shoe)!

And yes,what is it about a single shoe on the side of or in some cases the middle of the freeway?? Have wondered about that for years. I mean what, someone is irritated, takes one shoe off and throws it out the window? LOL. One of the mysteries of life.

And speaking of mysteries. I had a glass of wine here somewhere, and can't find it!! Now that is really strange.

Ah, found it. Whew, that had me feeling strange.

What a great thread.

I have never lost a shoe- but I did lose an elderly parent once who was travelling alone-
anyone else lose a travelling relative.
He finally showed up at the airport the next day- he spent the night in the Minot ND airport - pocketed the money the airline gave him for a hotel and didnt bother to call that he had missed his flight- could have smacked him a good one for that stunt
