Most embarrassing to be walking along and walk out of your heels.
3 times I stuffed toilet paper down in the toes
of my shoes trying to make them tighter.
It worked for a little while and then all of
sudden I was walking out of them again.
It's not like I could go to the closet and get another pair
I had only brought the ones.
I can't tell you how nervous it made me thinking
as I walked to the stand to give the Eulogy for my sister's funeral
I was just going to trip up the stairs.
I made it fine but did get stuck in the mud at the cemetery.
Now thinking, heels and Utah winters just don't go together.

Just saying hi. You are very brave to give the eulogy at your sister's funeral. I'm sure she heard and loved every word you said.
Hey my cute friend - how I wish I wasn't so occupied when you were in UT - I would have been here for you! I mean it!
Going through your last several posts and catching up - what a great family you have and I am so sorry about Sissy's passing. However, I can tell she was much beloved of her family!

tru-dat! heels and western winters don't go together, period. :)
funny though, i've heard of TP stuffed elsewhere, but never in shoes. ::snicker:: you're a genius!
That is funny!
Agreed!!
Everytime I am heading into church in my heals in the winter.. I just know I'm going to kill myself.
Interesting that your feet are smaller here. I think everything shrivels up in this cold.
I read from the other girls that you did fabulous speaking. Soo bummed we all didn't meet up.
One day. *sigh*
~ And yes.. we do have much in commen. I read on Cherie's blog your fear is snakes. Ditto girl.
I hear there is some disgusting ones out where you are too.. :( *cringes*
I've stepped off a few curbs and walked out of my shoes before - always looking to see who saw me!!!
You and your family have been in my prayers Gigi. God bless you.
I agree with Ann things get smaller with the cold including feet. That is funny - Glad you made it!
You're right, heels in winter in UT just don't work! Even in AZ, I would worry as I was walking up to play the organ/piano in Sacrament Meeting that I was going to trip and fall. Thankfully I was released before any of that happened.
You were walking totally normal. Seriously, I would NOT have known if you wouldn't have said anything!
You did a fabulous job by the way. The whole service was amazing. Such a tribute to Clair.
If feet are smaller in Utah, I better not ever go to Georgia! I'd be wearing a size 12!
You didn't need to worry, you were fabulous and you looked gorgeous walking up to the stand!
What a wonderful funeral for your loving sis!
Yes, boots for Utah's winters are best. I am so sorry about your sister Gigi, she looks like such a sweet thing! Sisters is such a special bond! God bless you :D
So sorry about your sweet sister:(
Winter in Utah.....where do I begin?
Being an easterner myself, I can tell you that you are less puffy here because of the lack of humidity!
Glad you didn't trip.
