Hi, here is another post about my fantastic New thongs. I love em.  Tags:  footware, orthics, foot care, thongs/flip flops Besides my runners, thongs are probably my most common footwear of choice.  And for $15 for a funky pair, who would blame me?  Ahh, but did I ever think I’d spend $70 on a pair […]

Okay it’s Sunday night. I am warm at home wearing my new Columbia fleece jacket. Which I bought yesterday for $25 at Sam’s Club (WOOT!) I am also taking a moment to contemplate my situation.
