March Madness

Okay, I know that it's not March and it's only the 8th of February.  BUT I have thought of one of the best ideas I've ever had that I am going to challenge myself with in the month of March.

For starters, this will not seem extremely challenging for some.  It's also not really related to my faith in God (though I wouldn't be surprised if God used it to change me or grow me or whatever else it is that God always seems to do).  This challenge has something to do with the number of a specific item that I have.  To those of you that know me well, it won't be too hard to figure out what it is.

That's right.  In the month of March, I am challenging myself to wear a different pair of shoes every day.  Yes, I have that many pairs of shoes, if not more.

This all started when one of my professors commented that I own a lot of coats.  I found this odd because I own only 3 and wear only 2 of those.  The third that I don't often wear is for the blizzarding days that I still have to walk to class in.  I realized that I don't have a lot of coats, but I do have a lot of shoes---A LOT OF SHOES.

Therefore, in the month of March, I am going to wear a different pair of shoes on each of the 31 days.  This will probably extend into the beginning week or two of April as I really do own that many pairs.

Hold me accountable, friends!  I plan to try to take a picture and blog about each shoe each day.  Hopefully I can hold myself to that, too.  This is just a fun idea I had and I want to do for no reason other than for the fun of it. 

I hope you are all having a great week and that you are being challenged (for real) and pushed more and more towards our great, loving God.
