My #2 was telling me; its embarrassing Mom that her feet is harder more calloused then her boyfriend. She said its pretty bad that her feet is harder rougher then his. She asked “who did I inherit that from?”
I started laughing and said “OH you get TITA FEET too? You’re my clone, guess who you gottum’ from?” She was like you know what; “I am grateful to have your ass Mom but your feet sucks!” Too funny yeah.
I told her go get a pedicure. Put plenny lotion on her feet and put socks on when her go moimoi. *L* Couldn’t hurt. lol Anyway I gave her plenny Avon footworks lotion and stuff like that. I’m sure she’ll use it all up.
I was thinking my feet are the way they are because of growing up barefooted. You know luau feet going all ova da place no moe shoes. Walking on asphalt on hot summer days, down limestone backroads, and running thru da freshly plowed cane fields la dat. Back in those days I couldn’t imagine wearing shoes every day the way I do now. Strange.
My first bee sting I eva did have was cause I was barefooted & I stepped on one half dead bumble bee. I neva see’um or I wouldn’t of stepped on it. Was pau church and us was going Pakay store so stay hele-ing down da road anden OWW-WEE. I was hopping on one foot. My friends was like, eeewwll, wait wait wait, they saw the sting in my foot and pulled’um out.
Considering the years, at least a decade of running around barefoot; nothing really serious happened. Those were decades before hypodermic needles infested with drugs & diseases.
