To celebrate, I bought a third...and thought of you!

I wore Etonic shoes for more than a decade, and bought them at the foot clinic where I have my orthotics made. When the shoes were discontinued, I tried many shoes, and have found the New Balance Mens M1260 to be fantastic. I am wearing a 2E width, so have to go with mens. Here is a link:<br />http://www.newbalance.ca/New%20Balance%201260v4/M1260-V4,en_CA,pd.html#color=Silver_with_Bright Blue_and_Lime<br />Great support and lots of cushioning. I am a happy camper!!<br />I just checked my blog and the photos loaded OK for me. There were no pics of shoes, just more of the peat bog, and hosta plants in my yard.<br /><br />Elaine Quehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02026673306647861262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222373504029195323.post-56188867479668892302015-05-23T20:43:32.132-07:002015-05-23T20:43:32.132-07:00Elaine, I'm sorry you've been experiencing...Elaine, I'm sorry you've been experiencing so much pain, but I certainly understand how problems in one area (knee for instance) translate to problems elsewhere when you don't walk right to compensate. But I'm constantly amazed at how much you get done with traveling and teaching and dyeing! Glad you schedule some down time to rest.<br />The 4th, 5th, and 8th pictures on your post wouldn't open, and I'm very interested in the shoes you've found (if pic. 4 was actually of shoes). Love the hosta picture from your yard.<br />Martha Ginnhttp://www.marthaginn.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222373504029195323.post-73703694225430165632015-05-22T12:35:27.726-07:002015-05-22T12:35:27.726-07:00Did you get my last message Elaine, about sticking...Did you get my last message Elaine, about sticking at it? rtquilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12687017135718976720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222373504029195323.post-20747835374479999182015-05-21T19:48:02.654-07:002015-05-21T19:48:02.654-07:00Thank you Jackie for your lovely response and your...Thank you Jackie for your lovely response and your kind comments.

Being gentle and caring to oneself is not only the best thing we can do for ourselves it is the only thing we need to do. I have yet to find a more inspiring teacher and a blog that is the first thing I search for. All the best and good luck with ticking off the items on your bucket list.
