I have been reading a lot lately about not wearing outside shoes in the house and it interests me even more because I’ve been saving to re-carpet my whole house. It hits me every now and then about how to do things though, like, say I’m cooking all day on Sunday then need to take the trash out. I’m assuming it’s change shoes, then say the grandkids stop by and want to go go for a bike ride? I’m assuming it’s change shoes. I guess maybe what I’m asking is how many baskets by how many doors with how many pairs of slip-ons (both indoor and out) do I need?
Did your wife grow up in a house that was all carpeted? And did you grow up in a house that was cement or wood? I could understand not wanting shoes on inside if it was wall to wall carpet or rugs.
She grew up in Kenya, their floors were just barren concrete I believe. There’s not alot of paved roads out there where family is out in the countryside, so it’s either super dusty there or super muddy, no in-between. When I visited there, it made total sense.
