Yay! I'm barefoot in the house, shod (sandals) outside. No grass, just mulch & roses (rose thorn in toe = ouch. Splinters in toes/feet = ouch). But I, out of 100 days, will wear sandals on 99.5 of them (I don't like getting my tennis shoes all dirty w/putzin' in the yard.. plus mulch sticks to fabric better than the leather of the sandals). Only time I'm not in sandals is if it's under 30degs and snow. Has to be both.. I'll wear sandals in -10*F weather, no problems, but I don't like getting my tootsy wet outside 'cuz then they squish around in the sandal. I got ugly feet. LOL But they can carry my fat butt, so what more can I ask?
Funny thing is that when I have to wear boots for the cold weather, I have a heck of a time getting them off. So I'll ask DH to help me pull 'em off. I'll turn around so he's behind me & lift my leg. A few weeks ago we were at a friend's house & she had a farrier over. DH had never seen a farrier at work, so he'd never seen a horse being trimming/shod. When he saw how the farrier stood behind the horse & lifted the horse's leg by the foot and the horse bend his leg at the knee, DH exclaimed, "Hey, that's how I take off your boots!" So now, when I'm getting help from him on getting my boots off, he says he's unshodding me. LOL
