My new walking shoes arrived – the same ones I have bought once a year, every year for — well, years. I opened the box, followed a you tube video on how to lace shoes to conform to your foot and tested them by walking into the kitchen. What is that sound? I must have imagined it. Walked back across the tiled kitchen and carpeted living room. Every step sounds like a muffled voice transmission from space! Bytes disagrees — he says they sound like Grumpy Goose. Do I send the shoes back? Or keep them and hope –they wear out sooner than the year they usually last? Thanks for coming by quietly to share your awesome posts!

I giggled when reading about the new shoes. We were at Lowe’s the other day, and a lady was walking through the garden center; it sounded as though her shoes were barking, haha. She kept apologizing to everyone she walked past, but honestly, I didn’t mind the sound. I smiled and continued my shopping. I say keep your shoes, and hopefully, once they are worn in a little, it will stop making that sound. Have a great week!

Oh that is too funny! Suppose they are the same name brand??
