    Well, aren't those appropriate words...unfortunately I'm feeling some of them a little too often.

    You are officially a walking Thesaurus. Great Image. A worn shoe that has climbed many hills.

    Hahaa . . yep definitely ready for retirement. It's so hard to chuck out that comfiest pair of shoes but yours are definitely ready for the bin! As for your Acrostic, nah I don't feel any of those and statistically, I'm way over the hill! More like a fine wine or a vintage cheese than a pair of well worn shoes.

    My dad wears his shoes until they look like that - or until my step-mom sneaks them to the trash and replaces them... :)
