Dear Chuck,
We met years ago, and you’ve been really good to me.
And I know I’ve worn you out – you’re looking frayed, and your sole is tired.
But I have to be honest with you – lately, you’ve been kind of dirty to me.
Don’t get me wrong – I still love you, but I’m not IN love with you.
The good news is that I can’t let you go, so we can still live together.
Don’t hate me ’cause I need you to be beautiful.
Love, Me.

I am really good at adding letters.

I am a Mother, and the captain of our funny little ship. With two young kids and a third constantly being contemplated, I am the queen of accumulating piles and stepping on Legos. I am a night owl, who is forever exhausted. I am a perfectionist, who has perfected the art of procrastination. I am forever trying to get back to my cute, young self, and am a genius at failing at it. I am a great wife, and an even better friend. If you can make me laugh, I may follow you around for awhile. If you know Colin Firth, I’m moving in. Also, I am easily bribed with a strong latte, so keep that in your back pocket.

LOL – I know how you feel! I can’t give up my “Chuck” either.
Oh my…. What a way to go out! I used to rock a pair of those back in the day. I love the ankle support!

I almost bought my first pair of Chucks the other day….haven’t worn them since I was a kid!
I LOVE them – you should buy a pair. Maybe wear them under your wedding gown?
hahaha! I love your “I still love you, but I’m not IN love with you”! I do love my Chucks!
LOL! Looks like you have some shopping to do! Gosh I haven’t had a pair of those in forever! But they’re totally cute. I should get a pair!
This is such a neat post! I haven’t had a pair in years!
ah, chuck. the first “man” in a girl’s life – aside from dad ;P
shuttling in from SITS
Those are awesome Chucks! I love how they are worn and frayed (you could clean the toe up a bit with a Magic Eraser if you really wanted to!)
Maybe we should go shopping together for replacements. How does tomorrow sound?
Great picture. I think mine are about 2 years younger. Still life in the old dogs yet as they say in England!
My daughter ordered a pair from their website and you can custom design them. Pick out the fabric on the inside and outside, the trim and everything. You should replace Chuck with a pair of “Charles.”
I want a pair of “Chucks” seems everyone has them, but me, even my kiddos had/have them. I need Chucks.
I love chuck taylors!! Both my kids have them, but I don’t! I can’t deal with the flatness of them!
I used to be all about the big heels, but I could wear these everyday if I could get away with it.
My 2 girls and I all have matching chucks.
I think I might need to get me a pair of high tops, too.
Don’t you just love them? I bought a pair last year, and I wear them almost daily. Thinking about buying me a pink pair to match my laptop. Color coordination is key.
Hugs and Mocha,
Stesha
Mmmm I love my Chucks. I wear my pink ones almost every day.
I was just thinking that I needed new tennis shoes too and was contemplating getting some Chuck’s. I’ve never had a pair, but have loved them from afar. Glad to hear they treated you well.
Good lookin shoes … I have some on as we speek! Cute spot- glad I stumbled over here- hope you can stop by my place when you get the chance!
I need me some of those. I used to have some, a while ago (years) but they just don’t carry them at my Wally World, where I buy my shoes because I am a cheap lady.
LOVE them! Love them tattered, love them beautiful.
My first pair: Purple high tops, I was 7. I was ridiculed and made fun of during a heated game of four square and FINALLY got over it and bought a new pair 2 years ago. TWO! YEARS! AGO! They are the best though. Faithful friends, even if they get you made fun of.
What a lovely tribute to your Chucks! I should write an apology note to mine for never wearing them. I’m too lazy to lace them up and always go for flats instead.
