I Wear Shoes in the House, Here’s Why…

Hi Anne!

I can already hear you.

“That’s disgusting!!!!”

Yes, I agree, it certainly can be.

There have been studies where researchers swabbed the bottoms of shoes and found fecal bacteria on the vast majority of them.

Now THAT’S pretty gross!

So why would I ever choose to wear shoes in the house knowing what I know?

Why would I risk my kids' health?

Well… I wouldn’t!

Because I don’t wear my outdoor shoes in the house. I wear a pair of indoor ONLY shoes.

I have a pair that never steps foot outside. The bottoms forever stay white, and the tops don't get scuffed with dirt.

These are my house shoes, and I adore them!

I even ordered a comfy pair from one of my favorite shoe brands in one of my favorite colors.

When I wake up, I immediately put them on before I begin my day.

Why? Because it cues my mind that it’s time to get to work.

If I meander around in my cozy pink slippers, I may just be tempted to melt back into the couch and pull my blanket up to my head.

But when I put my shoes on? I’m ready to go!
