Unnatural desires…cowboy boots?

Photo by Flickr user Fran 53

So I have been having very unnatural desires recently. At least they are unnatural for someone like me… I have been thinking about buying a pair of cowboy boots. I’m not sure if Texas is finally rubbing off on me, or if this is just the result of my father passing, but I have this very strong desire to wear cowboy boots. So strong, in fact, that I added it to my bucket list (I’ll share more with you about my bucket list in the future). I realize some people respond to a life changing event by purchasing a car, having an affair, or taking a trip, but for some odd reason I am craving cowboy boots. Go figure.

I know nothing about cowboy boots, so feel free to share your tips and suggestions with me. Not sure if I will actually go through with buying a pair, but I am definitely going to try some on soon.

  1. I love your Android family :)


  2. I vote you get boots over have an affair.
    Just saying…


  3. I see a Justin Boots gift certificate about Christmas time… that is unless you have already found and bough the perfect pair. 


  4. Thanks for the tip Rebecca…I’ll definitely check out Sheplers. I’ll let you know if I need the coupon.


  5. Judy…Gift Certificates are always nice!


  6. Wife…no need to worry. Now about that new planer for the workshop…
