At the beginning of the month, I had a birthday. I’m now 47. Wow! Sometimes, it’s a bit hard to believe that I’ve been around for almost half a century. But here I am. I don’t get into birthdays, but my daughter does and so she sketched a lovely picture for me and wrote me a beautiful letter. I’ll be framing both.
A few days ago, I ordered these boots. Dr. Martens has been on my want list for years. They’re durable and seemingly last a long time. Which is perfect for someone like me since I dislike spending money. The shoes were supposed to arrive on Monday. However, they arrived yesterday (Tuesday).
As you can see, I’ve already changed them around a bit. The new shoelaces are definitely… Opal.
I had made some bias tape about two years ago and so I made those into shoelaces.
The bias tape was originally created from a bolero jacket that I’d made for my daughter when she was nine years old. That was four years ago. Great memories! 🙂
Almost a century? More like half that, don’t ya think? 😉 LOL
Nice shoes!

@Mike Goad, Oh boy, my mind is already going, going, gone… Thanks for the catch. 😉
Happy Birthday! OMG! Awesome Shoelaces, too! Nice! I did get your text the other day and was in a ‘deadzone’ so I will respond fully today!
