Help Me Rhonda!
I have been dropping E cards and on most blogs there are advertisements. I can usually look away but the past few days, I have been having trouble. Why? Because I love shoes.
Here is a picture of my husband trying to keep me out of a shoe store in Branson, Missouri. A man we didn’t even know was helping him by keeping the store door shut!
One might call me a shoe addict. I keep clicking on these advertisements and find myself drooling over shoes. Fortunately, I have been able to talk myself out of buying any but OMG! It is the end of the season. Sandals are on sale! I hear that song Help Me Rhonda in my head.
I was wondering if that is really a song and lo and behold it is!
From Wikipedia
“Help Me, Rhonda” is a song written by Brian Wilson and Mike Love for their American rock band The Beach Boys. The song is the first Beach Boys song (with the exception of their Christmas Album) to feature a lead vocal by Al Jardine. It was released in March 1965 on the album Today! as “Help Me, Ronda”. By that time, it had already been re-recorded; this second recording was released as a single through Capitol Records in April 1965, re-titled with the more well-known “Rhonda” spelling.
The single peaked at number one in the United States, their second U.S. number one single after “I Get Around”.

Karen that is way too funny. I wonder if they have a shoes anonymous. Good luck with the shoe shopping, or should I say trying to stop yourself from buying more shoes.

As long as you have spare money to buy why not? Your husband is so cute trying to keep you out of the boutique

Who doesn’t love shoes, oh wait most husbands who have three maybe four pairs, sneackers, dress shoes, flip flops and maybe work shoes. Us women however need to coordinate with the outfit, so 4 pairs just won’t do. So happy shopping
