Healing Thoughts, Shoes and Earbuds Recommendation

Thoughts of healing go out to my long-time friend Shirebound today, whose lovely dog Pippin has been fighting an infection and is in care at the Veterinarian. I'm hoping things turn around for poor Pippin quickly. It's always difficult to see the ones you love in pain, and her family has had enough of that this year already. 



I ordered one of the KIDS Bryn Twill shoes instead of
the ones I purchased a few days ago. The toe is much less
covered on this style, and I think my foot will fit the
shoe better. At least, that's the hope. The two I purchased
last week are getting returned today. 



On the shoe front, both pairs of KEDS are being returned to Zappos today, and two different pairs are on their way to me - this time sets with a much different look that I hope will feel better with my crazy feet. This is why I shop for shoes with Zappos - free shipping to me, and free returns to them for a full year! It usually doesn't take me very long to know that a shoe won't fit me properly, but I often will have to try 6-8 pairs before finding one that's good. For those of you with good feet who adore shoes, I envy you. I have horrid feet and can rarely find a pair that actually is comfortable to wear. 



We have a variety of household fans. I use a box fan in
the computer room, and we have two round fans on stands
for the bedroom and living room. There's a desk-top
round fan in the guest bedroom for times when Sharon
comes to visit. 



We're in the middle of a heat wave right now, which leaves things uncomfortable. I think I'll enjoy my grocery shopping later today - the store has air conditioning, and that's very pleasant. I have A/C at my shop too, although we run it as rarely as we can get away with. Our utility bills are through the roof if we run it a lot. My home, however, does not have A/C. We live with fans in the rooms we are more frequently in - the living room, the bedroom and the computer room. The lower levels are usually fairly comfortable, but the upper levels can be an oven at times. Not good, but it's one aspect of summer that I don't like combined with a lot that I love. I'll tolerate no A/C. 



I bought a set of the TOZO wireless bluetooth earbuds on
the recommendation of a friend. I love them and I'm passing
the recommendation on to you. I chose the beige color, and
they're almost invisible in my ears, but they have a variety
of colors available. The sound is great, I get a lot of play
time on a charge, and the recharger is so convenient. 



On the recommendation side, I purchased a set of TOZO T10 Bluetooth earbuds a couple of weeks ago and have been using them a lot. I'm recommending them to you, if you're looking for a good pair, because the price was right and they're working like a dream. They're waterproof  rated IPx8 and I could wear them in the pool, but getting any Bluetooth signal in the pool is always iffy, and since they're wireless, they would be too easy to lose. I have wired headsets for my music and audio books in the pool, and they'll be used again starting on Tuesday when I can return to the gym. (I'd be there on Monday, but I have a dental checkup that conflicts Monday morning.) 

On that note, I'm off to start my day. Have a fabulous one and I'll be back tomorrow.
