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?

    Your neighbors probably aren’t particularly loud, your landlord cheaped out on sound insulation. And probably regular insulation.

      My parents had this mini dachshund.

      If you were downstairs and she decided to run the ~5 pound dog…. Well let’s just say we nicknamed her “thunder paws”

        I have an old cat who is 7lbs soaking wet. Wife calls it the exorcist when running around upstairs.

          it was truly impressive. you could always tell when someone started cooking- especially if they so much as glanced at the carrots… (she knew she got the tips, it was her treat…Vet recommended for training. Just chop them into tiny nibs.)

          even if you didn’t break out the carrots… She was hopeful something would fall. It was amazing, at how even when she was 18; she could go from old-lady-napping to rug-shark scarfing up whatever just fell before it ever touches the ground.
