Everyone goes for what feels best on the feet. Save the sandels for dinner at Victoria and Alberts. 
Otherwise, wear what is most comfortable. I remember buying new sneakers and not breaking them in before the trip.
What a nightmare. Never again.
I am not even going to start to consider packing. My Dear FIL is not doing well. We are being told it could be only a matter of days.
You sure? I was worried that [since, I hardly ever wear capris] you had to wear sandles, fancy flats, or keds. I have the 3, but can't walk for any extended time in them. Ok, for dinner or a movie but not park walking.
EE22, Have you gotten any new mbts? I bought one the same size 7.5 and they felt smaller and tighter, narrower? So, I bought another as an 8 thinking they ran small, now. >> But, my heel started hurting with the larger. And feels "normal" in the smaller. Maybe cause it is holding it tighter?
TP2, have a nice "extended weekend" with the girls. Sorry about the snow. Wow, snow in atlanta. That is some storm.

It's all about the feet!!
Well everyone
DH flew out on Saturday afternoon to be with him before it is too late and did get there in time. He is hanging on but not out of the woods yet. He is due to return on Thursday night but can change the ticket if he needs to stay a bit longer.
They live a 12 hour drive from here but I will go if something happens, especially because the kids will want to go.
I will have to work my butt off at work this week to get everything done in case I have to take off...
I am just so sad right now.....please send pixie dust that everything will work out okay.
.....we are going through a similar situation right now with my Mother....we call her "Nana" ...she lives out in California now...( I have 4 brothers ...3 of whom live out there).....and she has been deteriated ....not in her physical health (but this last week ...yes...because she was hospitalized with a very bad bladder infection)....but..... she`s getting very bad "Dementia".....I am actually a "Long Distance Caregiver" and it is a very daunting task as of right now.... 
....I would certainly have to fly out to Cali if Nana took a turn for the worse.......
...... That will certainly break my heart all the more ....Sometimes I wonder what is worse....being phsically ill....or lossing your ability to function mentally in life......its very sad... 
....New Jersey has gotten a foot of snow since last night and its still comeing down....I just can`t believe what`s happening !!
Whenever we have those big storms, we always have at least two days off. It's hard to clean away that much snow. Of course, with the fields here, we get lots of drifting too which closes the roads again and we have a lot of gravel roads too in our district. Enjoy if you do planning
Not really too much to say. Prayers.
DH tried to return a movie to Hollywood Video and one of the major highways was still not plowed. That never happens. They declared a snow emergency where we live which means you are only allowed on the roads for official business. Don't think returning a movie is considered official business but you try telling DH that!
I would think a 2 hour delay for the morning but that is just a guess. We shall see. The kids have ride on toys in the backyard that are completely covered. I thought winter was over.
Your right, will wear what works.
Continued thoughts. I have been checking the weather looks like 70 not sure if that is swimming weather. 
We will have to see. I am interested in seeing the nick resort. It always looks so interesting. Of course, being from the north >> we all believe that is swimming weather.
We will probably plan to go to the tea at 2pm, and meet up afterward? Is that time frame ok with you, or do you have plans that afternoon? Hope things are working out. Long distance plans are really hard, to do. The hospital, should of helped you do arrangements. That is part of the "home" planning >> we are all required to do. If your still having problems, feel free to contact the "social service" department [also know as case management]. {Social workers & case management rn's} They should still assist you, since they discharge her without proper arrangements. At the very least, they should know of reputable agencies, that can supply personnel for "nana". Hope this helps alittle. 
especially for someone from the corn. We don't have icky parts around here.
we can always decide to eat together. I am not sure what Bug needs to consider when it comes to food but I don't mind planning around that.
....You are all so very special to my heart .....
.....she has already sent a visiting nurse to Nana once...and is going to send a visiting social worker to assess Nana`s situation.....she has given me a list of home health caregivers...my Brothers and I are in the process of looking into the best possible senario for her at this time.....it is very hard The paper work is phenominal...and Im not sure if all this is going to drain us all financially either...but we will do what we must for our Mother ....I feel so very helpless at times when Nana gets out of sorts in her mind....for instance...yesterday...she didn`t even want the nurse at the house...and was yelling about it to me on the phone to tell the nurse not to visit with her.....Mr.Tomar spoke to her and she then gave in.....it just breaks my heart because I know it really isn`t her at all doing these things.... 
.....MKY , Bug and Candi... you are leaving soon !! WHOO HOO !!!
