I almost broke my neck walking (more like hiking) back from Safeway at least three times so far this year. Safeway, huh. Isn't it a bit ironic? Anyway, the boots are more than $100, so that's out of the question.
Tried to find a memorable song about boots to make my tale of woe more uplifting. It just doesn't get much better than Nancy Sinatra :-)
"Safeway" indeed.
ReplyDeleteIf you need traction on ice, find some Yak Trax (sp?) which strap on over any shoes and look ugly as hell but will save your back and other body parts. And they should cost around $20 or so.
Be careful!
Thanks for the great idea: I need to make another trip to Unsafeway later tonight :-)
DeleteI thought almost getting knocked down by nasty drivers was your main complaint.
ReplyDeleteYes, this is also true. Bottom line is walking to Safeway can be a hair raising experience during the winter months :-)
