Me and My Boots

These are my favorite boots, my favorite color, my favorite.

I don’t wear them much, and when I do they are tucked away under jeans. I don’t let the world in on my secret.

I am a conservative, God-fearing, introvert, wearing orange boots.

Some people gallivant in their bright clothes and flashy plastic accessories, and they are not secretive. They have nothing surprising or remarkable to reveal. That is what they do, they are, they want to be.

I am surprising. The world says that I am just a church-goer, a housewife all too fond of her husband, boring.

I say, “You have no idea…“, while I strut, undetected, in my boots.

Their very nature is unpredictable. My sweetie knows that when I have my boots on I might be a little bit sassy or a little bit homesick. He does know to put on his seat belt.

What the world doesn’t know about me is a lot, me and my orange boots.

About Tracy

I am curious by nature and crazy about my husband and our toddling boy. I look for Jesus in the ordinary, add in scripture and wait to see what happens. Consider yourself invited.

    Hello introverted gal…I am too :)

    I too don't often show my sassy side through my clothing…but everyone in a while I do wear my sassy shoes.

    There is something good about knowing I am wearing my sassy shoes…even though no one else would really notice.

    I love that you are surprising!

    Have a good weekend!

    I love your boots, and all that they mean. As Christian women we are not boring, the world just isn't allowed to see all we are! Have a blessed weekend!

    There is nothing better than a pair of sassy boots. I will admit mine don't look like that ;) but I do have a pair!

    Fun post! But, I must say that I always expect the inner sass of Tarcy Jean, even if she's not wearing her orange boots ;o)

  9. Andrea says:

    I LOVE THEM, Tracy! I say where them out, girl! Be sure to also paint your toes a bright purple, too…:) That's what I do when I feel like shakin' things up a bit…I know…I am SUCH a rebel…

    I'm right there with you on the introversion! Loved this post and your orange boots are the BEST!

  17. Ms. Random says:

    L-O-V-E them! I finally purchased my first pair of cowboy boots a few weeks ago and have yet to wear them. I went the cheaper route this time, only $60, because I am not sure I'm able to pull such coolness off. We shall see what happens!

    You can see mine here: http://msrandomsramblings.blogspot.com/2010/03/project-life-tuesday-2-week-special.html

    I would LOVE some black and red ones! You may have inspired me!

    I LOVE IT!

    I have things like that, too, and I must say, it's quite enjoyable for us introverts who are called "lame". We are so not.

  19. Victoria says:

    As I sit here in my Duran Duran shirt, I am amazed that I could love you more than I already did…and all over some orange boots!

Please, leave me some of your words.
