melissamasame @renesme09 Hi! I'm not trading at the moment, just trying to downsize and save up for my babies.

renesme09
renesme09 Sounds good! Well, I am Tara, and its nice to meet you! I am sure we will do business soon. I have a crazy love for shoes, and boots are my go-to right now with the season change. I live in Minnesota so its all about cute and comfortable while staying warm in the sub-zero temps.

melissamasame @renesme09 Hi! It's awesome meeting you as well! I have a crazy shoe problem as well! That's why I list so many! But slippers are always my go to and boots if I need to dress up! Heels don't agree with me!

renesme09
renesme09 I need to quit buying heels. Seriously. Haha. I'm a nurse, and last year I bought a pair of Dansko Clogs. They gave me a bunion and now heels are pretty much out of the question. & anyway, I have no business wearing big a** heels out trying to do mom stuff ;) I see some moms showing up to cheer/volleyball/football with 5 inch heels hobbling to their seat. I wanna be out next to the court and running around cheering them on lol More power to ya if you can function in those things. I just can't.

melissamasame @renesme09 That's to funny! Yes! No heels here! I'm a mom first and nothing else matters!!

myblueskydays @melissamasame @myblueskydays I kept scrolling n scrolling!! Wow you are gorgeous and have the most beautiful family!! That's awesome!! So I ran into to a snag, it's really frustrating me!! I live in fl and we had to move all this stuff for the hurricane, on top of it, I was just doing a whole bunch of photo shoots!! Had a lot of things pulled out..I have a whole room n am running out is space for inventory!!!

myblueskydays
myblueskydays @melissamasame @myblueskydays I know boring...on top of it just for fun I got really sick n my back was in severe shape...idk how, yet it could happen, all my suits are in heavy duty plastic in a storage box..I recently moved some things in n out of draws..the white bathing suit was in the plastic but opened so I believe the top may have been accidentally picked n put in a draw or other box?? Or for some reason I never received it! I couldn't do much to find it because I could barely move!!
Oct 21Reply
myblueskydays
myblueskydays @melissamasame @myblueskydays today I was going to send you your package with the bottom n send you the top as soon as I locate it! If not I'd try n purchase another..may not be able to this time of year!! I've pulled out the black before to measure etc, but never the white!! I cannot tell you how upset I am about this...I decided I should ask you how I should proceed? I can send it all, if you have time to wait for the top, I can make another bundle? Or issue you a credit?
Oct 21Reply
melissamasame
melissamasame @myblueskydays Aww, I'm so sorry to hear about that. I know what it's like to be in pain as I've been in and out of hospitals for over 20 years of my life. I totally understand. I'll try and find other things so you don't have to look or dig for it. Whatever actually makes it easier for you, I can do?
Oct 21Reply
myblueskydays
myblueskydays @melissamasame @myblueskydays the most important thing to me is that your happy! So if you tell me how you'd like me to proceed I'll do whatever you like! In case I never received, I'm going to get in touch with the vendor and ask if he has anymore that are available, could take a few weeks!! Again I apologize!!! I look forward to hearing from you! It's 3am! I hope I'm making sense!! Sweet dreams ttyl! 😊✌🏽️💖🌻💪🏼😢🎐💪🏼🌈

myblueskydays @melissamasame @myblueskydays omg you just made me cry....things have taken such a bad turn, I've been battling all my life especially the last 21 years! I was hit by a truck pregnant with my daughter..in time I worked at the crack of dawn six days a week to get better, 14 months later I was hit by another truck n developed fibro...n then mysthania gravis, but it's thought I also have end stage Lyme, lupus, ms, this other one!! I feel like I'm being swallowed up! I'm trying to move to ca!

myblueskydays @melissamasame @myblueskydays I'm trying desperately to move to ca! The weather here can render me unable to move, walk, see, speak..n the pain omg!! 3 trucks 9 cars, bladder disease, big c survivor, omg the list!! N a shattered heart which isn't helping! I'm so grateful you are you!!! I get so scared that it'll be a mean angry person! For the life of me I don't know how that top is not in the bag or box????

myblueskydays
myblueskydays @melissamasame @myblueskydays are you out of pain now? If so would you mind telling me how? Or what caused it? I understand if you don't want to share especially here! For me it's not important! I'd like to find you your top..I've been emptying draws and boxes! There's one more big one I want to check !! But you do you! You tell me!! I'll do whatever you ask!!!😘✌🏽️💖🌻🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌈👍🏽💪🏼💕🎀💗😢

melissamasame
melissamasame @myblueskydays Aww... you're truly inspiring showing that you are not letting it run your life is very admirable. I have blood infections and kidney trouble along with a whole bunch of other things. I live, breath and wake everyday for my babies as they're my reason! I don't let the Drs decide how I feel so I fight! I'm 35 and been fighting since I was 12 but it wasn't till I had my first child that I knew that this is what I was meant to do... Be a mommy!

melissamasame
melissamasame @myblueskydays My heart has been broken for a while and when I lost the one most positive, most important person in my life 11 years ago, I've never been the same but my children help make up for a lot. I've battled severe depression along with many other things at a very very young age. So my calling of helping others came naturally even though I myself need it at times.

I know the other leather bow thin strap doesn't have the logo on bottom either and those I bought at Tory butch store here in Hawaii. The jelly ones I had didn't either and I bought it from the store. Neither did my ballet flats.
