A couple of years back I stubbed my little toe, it got wrapped around the ottoman and ended up at right angles to my foot. It hurt a great deal, I hopped around a lot and said some very nasty words. I always wore slippers but that morning I hadn’t had time to put them on before disaster struck. Anyway, since that time I simply cannot wear slippers, a bit back to front but that is how it is. I have two brand new pairs waiting in the wardrobe for when (or if) I feel the need. Sorry, that was a very long winded way of saying have you tried going around the house in bare feet Kitty.
