I am not talking about in listings or client’s homes (you should probably take your shoes off anyway.)   I am talking about taking them off at your own home before you even enter.  Not for the dirt or cleanliness of it…but for the warmth and relaxation of it.  I went through 20 years of hearing my husband’s shoes across the wood floors… for some reason this drove me mad.  Not that I didn’t love him, but here was the sound of work again.  His shoes reminded me of work while I was home dealing with 3 children.  Perhaps I am alone in this…..but I think not.

 This won’t be a long blog because most of you feel this energy when your spouse or parent steps into the house with their high heals or dress shoes…. you hear the “Klunck, Klunck, Klunck,’  which Brings the work energy into the home immediately and puts most family members on edge. (for whatever their reason).   Ditch the work shoes at the door and bring peace in with you…. not klunking or clinking  sets a soothing environment and  “heels”.   Just a thought.
