Sometimes I write to help me unpack things, sometimes I write because there are literally no words but I have to add some… Today is one of those days.
I’m going to take you back a while to when I asked my mum what she wanted for her birthday. She thought about it very seriously for my mother is a very serious person. Finally, days later, she told me she wanted a pair of running shoes.
At this point there are a couple of things you should know
- My mother has never run in her entire life. She’s never even run late so averse is she to the idea of running. But, to be fair she walks a lot. Very slowly but a lot.
- My husband has some very er, strong connections to the world that is running shoes so perhaps she was just trying to make it easy for me…
My husband suggested she go to one of the retail stores with which he is connected, find the shoes she wants and get back to us with the model and size.
