Shoes!
Must stay away from shoe shopping... My shoes have a room of their own with floor to (almost) ceiling shelving that my DH built. Not counting athletic shoes for various sports, rubber flipflops, or my 17 pairs of boots, I have 92 pairs of shoes.
Last year I got rid of a whole black garbage bag of shoes to the 'She Swaps Shoes' that were resold locally to raise money for charity (local womens' shelter). My Dad was a shoemaker in Italy, he even worked on the Italian climbing team boots for the K2 climb in 1954. He is the only guy I know with a shoe collection of his own, so I come by it naturally, lol. I have a picture of my black shoes only somewhere on my computer, but I'm not very organized picture wise, when I find it I will post it.
I can't pass up a perfect pair of shoes but my feet are quite narrow (A's) so when I find 'em, I buy 'em. Unfortunately they aren't generally the Payless Shoes, they tend to be pricier .

I have an addiction to buying books for kids so I can appreciated the addiction problem. And believe me, books take up lots of room too! I have "bins" everywhere -- all nicely labelled -- just waiting for some young eager reader to crack the cover. I just wish more kids actually read what I bought LOL.... I'll have to start an "APP" collection to get to the interest of the kids today

Buying new shoes as a reward for milestones would be awesome. I should have thought of that!
I sat down yesterday and pretty much planned out the whole week's menu. Going to be a busy week and I wanted to have a plan in place so I'm not just grabbing random stuff because I'm rushed. Then I told dh what the plan was and he's in charge of prep (he's nice like that). I just feel like if I have one part of my life fairly organized maybe the rest will follow.

LOL maybe 1 shoe for each pound - so 90 pounds is 45 pairs?

I'm kind of fond of him! Now, if I could just teach him to do laundry - I think that issue is a guy thing.

Found the shoe pictures one of each pair black & one of each pair brown/tan/beige. Haven't taken pictures of my colorful ones yet, maybe one day, lol.

Does anyone know if the peanut butter soy puffs still exist? I read about them all the time but my clinic doesn't offer them. I don't know if that's because they were discontinued or my clinic just doesn't know about them. Google wasn't really any help--they're listed on the IP website but that still doesn't make it clear.

They were discontinued some time ago, but these are very similar:
