I Might Be Getting Old…

When I was a kid, I enjoyed wearing slippers. Actually, when we lived on the farm, drafts in that old house encouraged the wearing of the slippers. One of the best parts about the farm were the registers that were in the floor. When the heat came on, we all ran to the registers to stand on them. That would warm your tootsies.

Now, I’ve become obsessed with always wearing slippers indoors. Not necessarily because of how cold or warm my toes are but because I hate getting my socks all dirty. If you have hardwood floors, like my sister does, people’s socks pick up any dirt on the floor. Think Swiffer. Of course, I’m not saying my sister keeps a dirty house, that’s not the case, but you can’t sweep the floors 24/7.

I’ve taken to transporting my Dearfoam slippers with me on the road. I, ahem, wear them at work. When I go to my parents, relatives and other places that I’ll be spending any sort of time. Now, I guess I just need a housecoat and a pipe.

  1. Well, I am very much in the ‘I wear Uggies club!’ when winter arrives. In fact, I love my ugg slippers so much that I’m thinking of driving for about 40 minutes to get the same pair that my cousin has (cause I wore hers on holidays and man, they were toastie!). So fear not…pipe and slippers perhaps not but you are not alone in the slipper wearing department!

  2. Thanks for clearing up that my house isn’t dirty! I will agree that the registers were a must to stand on while they were on….remember the fluffy nightgown I used to sport?
