it goes to show you never can tell. Anything can change the pattern of your days. This lovely pair of Converse and my complete lack of fabric vocabulary are doing that for me.
These are my most recently acquired All Stars that I found on sale in my second favorite neutral color. They will give my black ones a bit of a break. (In my world, not even hunter green can be the new black. Black is always the new black. Green just happens to work almost as well in my wardrobe.) I was very excited to find them and told my sister about them. But that is where the trouble began.
Do you see that pattern? How would you describe that on the phone? I tried - and failed utterly. I believe I managed to say that it is vaguely floral, a bit girly for me, and that there is a name for fabric that looks like that. That was nowhere near enough for my sister to tell me what that fabric is called. She said, and not for the first time, that I really needed to start a blog.
There are many attractive reasons to start a blog. I often work through my ideas in writing and I would like to develop the habit of doing that more often. My family is scattered across the US, so this is a good way to share bits of daily life. And, of course, there are so many interesting conversations out there that I would like to join.
None of those very good reasons were compelling enough to get me here. But this pair of Converse did it. So, here they are. Such is the life.
