Loh contest #192. My worn-out Pam's I can't simply part with.
What old, worn-out thing can you simply not part with?
Hi ladies, glad to meet with you again this week. Before i proceed, i want to know how you all are fairing. Hope you are doing great. Out of the two topics that says what friendship means to you and old or worn-out item we can't simply part with, i want to talk about the second question. Look at the Pam's again, it's old not so? It is of course. But i can't easily part with it because it always reminded me of a particular time in my life and also the fittings when it was new.
When i bought this pams, i was passing through financial crisis. I had no good shoes, sandals or Pam's to go out with. I was able to raise little money from a little business that i deed and bought the Pam's. It wasn't that strong, so i had give it to a shoe mender to gum it for me. I bought polish to polish and shine it always. So, these pams serves as all purpose to me and i really loved the fittings on my leg. When it started getting old, i tried to work on it until it finally worn-out. I didn't throw it away even though i have gotten a new one. I still left it me because i still wear it at home.
It reminds me of not giving up no matter what am passing through hoping for a better future. When am busy at home, i do wear the Pam's. Am not planning to threw it away anytime soon rather i will keep it until it tores on its own . Though the Pam's us old now, i can still wear it to farm. Sometimes i do was it and wear it to the market. I have searched for this type of my old Pam's to get a new one of it in the market but couldn't get it exactly. That's more reason i am finding it difficult to part with it.
Thanks for being our Judge this week @merit.ahama.
I had a pair of quality Flats that were very comfortable and lasted for years and I wore them everywhere, I got them at a Thrift store for $2 but I wish I could find another pair or two of the same.
Thanks @chichieze 👡
Thanks for your response. Am still looking for a way to replace mine
This reminds me of a pair of hiking boots my husband had. He loved the way they felt, that even though they developed holes in the top portion, he kept wearing them. Winter forced him to use some duct tape to keep the rain and snow out, but he really didn't want to part with them. (he did eventually, but with great reluctance!)
If they feel good, keep wearing them. Maybe you might still find some like the old ones in the future. Thank you for sharing and have a lovely day!
I really appreciate your comment. Honestly am finding it difficult to part with this pams

Oh my! That Pam looks so old, the leather is peeling off now. I like that it reminds you of what your past story, good you can still wear it to the farm at least.

Sure I can still wear it to farm. It's really old but can't easily let it go
