Porthopper101 Posted August 20, 2013 #3376 Share Posted August 20, 2013 (edited) Marie--That is so very sweet of you! But I really don't want to chance it and I work out of a home office so no separate workplace to send it to...not to mention I have put on some weight and until I am back down to a size 8 or thereabouts I wouldn't dare take it. Thanks so much for the offer though--you are wonderful! Barb Hi Barb, Honesty is very important to me; you just made my day:). When you are ready to cruise, please let me know. I promise I will find a perfect dress or gown for you. I was not going to say anything, but because of your post I am going to post it here. There were two ladies who have used a different name and address to get things from me. I put two and two together; I know who they are. They are definitely on my black list:(. Take care Marie Edited August 20, 2013 by Porthopper101 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeithsKelly Posted August 20, 2013 #3377 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Good morning ladies, Hope everyone is doing well. I have a new walking boot. It is UGLY, but I can walk and I can TAKE IT OFF :):):). I am a very happy camper. Yay!!!! I shipped all the shoes and Christi's package an hour ago. The rest I will ship tomorrow or the next day. I had to get some boxes. Have a fantastic day Marie So happy to hear about the boot, Marie! While I haven't had the foot troubles you have had, I did have the ugly boot when I broke my ankle a few years ago. For the most part it was wonderful, just one incident where i thought I almost killed the dog by clonking him in the head with it in the middle of the night...let's just say he never slept on the floor on my side of the bed after that, even long after the boot was gone! :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take care Marie Marie, that is so sad that people would have to stupe that low as to receive an item from you. It is so very nice of you to offer your items to others no matter what happens and what goes on in your life. Just to have others play games, What a shame. Please keep up the most generous things you do as we love you for that. And you are correct - Honesty is very important. Lairs get nothing and nowhere!!!

relic2 Posted August 20, 2013 #3379 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Yay Marie. Good you now have the boot. I decorated my crutches with zebra duct tape, but couldn't figure a way to make the boot anything but UGLY! Margaret Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indygolfer1 Posted August 20, 2013 #3380 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Marie, I know you have to be thrilled to have even an "ugly" walking boot! It has to feel so much better than a cast! It's hard to believe anyone would take advantage of your generosity! I always feel blessed to see your post and be the lucky recipient of one of your items! I have been so busy at work the last 3 months I don't often see everyone's post until too late. After my next cruise in November I'm going to pass on some if the items I have received so that others get the opportunity to wear them too!

IrishLassie Posted August 20, 2013 #3381 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Good morning ladies, Hope everyone is doing well. I have a new walking boot. It is UGLY, but I can walk and I can TAKE IT OFF :):):). I am a very happy camper. Yay!!!! Marie Happy to hear you got your "boot"! I had one years ago after having some foot surgery & had to wear it to work too! Took awhile before I could wear heels again, but all is well now. Take care, Marie. Also, can't believe that anyone would take advantage of your generosity, that's just not right. :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNGALOHA Posted August 20, 2013 #3382 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Marie, I am so glad to hear that you got your boot!!! It has been a long road for you, now maybe you can see light at the end of the tunnel.:D I am so sorry to hear that people would abuse your generosity like that! Wow! I always remember something my Mom taught us kids when we were little-"You will have to answer for all the things you have done in your life at the Pearly gates." I hope everyone has a great day today. Gerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magandab Posted August 20, 2013 #3383 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Marie, I'm so glad to hear you've graduated to the boot! I've had more than my share of them too, but while they are ugly and hot, they are soooo liberating when you get to that point. I'm very glad you were able to put together the nefarious plans of two bad guys (girls?) and foil their plots! I agree, after my cruise, I'll be offering my dresses back (unless I think we'll be doing another cruise) for someone else to enjoy. I love that so many of us get to play dress up and feel like a princess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Scrapnana Posted August 20, 2013 #3387 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Marie, Glad to hear that your foot is progressing and you are out of the cast. Hopefully, the miscreants you mentioned will disappear from this thread like the last one you had problems with. If they don't want to play by the "rules", they don't need to be here!:mad: Kathi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porthopper101 Posted August 21, 2013 #3399 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I am going to the post office tomorrow or the next day. I though I will ship these as well. I do not have a picture of me in the dress and I cannot find any picture of it online. It is a Ralph Lauren zise M. It is green color like the dress below, but the style is like the blue one. These are New balance size 8. They are new, they look beat up because they have been in the bottom of my closet :D. These are Skechers size 8, they also have been in the bottom of my closet. ***** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
