I can’t bear bare feet. I wear slippers, and socks for most of the year as my feet soon get cold.
Since I had plantar fasciitis about four years ago I wear firm shoes or trainers outside but I take them off as soon as I come in. In this heat I have some mules or sandals I wear without socks, but ideally I want to protect my feet as like others, I broke a toe a couple of years ago by stubbing my foot against the bed. It took months to be pain free.
DH wears proper shoes all the time as he is diabetic and feet are a danger area. I do wish I could get him to change when he has been outdoors though.
If we go to a house where you are expected to take your shoes off, he refuses. So he rarely goes to anyone’s house( in normal times).
What time do you get up and go to bed?
