When I broke my ankle last March, I kind of knew there would be shoes in my closet that I would probably not wear ever again. I had a feeling that I'd be bidding some of my cute, strappy heels farewell.
I did not expect that I'd be bidding my boots goodbye, too.
Turns out that I now have kankles.
Correction, I have a kankle.
My right ankle is wider and chunkier than my left ankle. It's very attractive, if I were a table.
I decided to order some new tall black boots from Zappos. I ordered two sizes (I feel like I can do that with free shipping and free returns), and they came last week. They are soft and stylish!
They do not fit.
I can zip up my left boot with no problem. My right boot won't zip up past the top of my foot.
They are going back and I will be bootless.
Goodbye, cute heels. Goodbye, comfy boots. Sigh.
Funny stories... tales from the road... life with us.

That is a total bummer. Any hope that the swelling will eventually go down and your ankle will return? On another note, I have a pair of knee boots that are kind of stretchy; maybe you could find some of those?
