@Lidewey, no wonder I don't have back issues even with my lifelong love of heels and my advancing age. As a dancer, we had to learn your approach in order to maintain balance even when tap dancing up/down a staircase.. Made long military marches a breeze for me too! Even works while jogging, but a lot harder to sustain for too long of a distance but helps when you hit that 'jogging wall' at the midway mark.

Yes, I knew about the later day, feet swelling issue, but when I happen to see a pair that I want, let's face it, home from the store they came. Unlike almost all of the girls that I've known and loved, even as a teenager, I have always really disliked shopping, so if I'm in a mall, I have a mission, and shoes are a treat that I reward myself just for being there.

@Alicia, not 'tying myself down' had it's benefits, but there is always a tradeoff of things that one would never be able to experience. The happiness comes from knowing that it was a choice and the knowledge that no one can 'have it all'

@MD, you are an 'enigma' to me. I LOVE IT! Visions of an early KD Lang now :-)) - El
