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?
Yeah I go out in the yard with the dog or take out the trash in winter here in Montreal. Granted it’s a minute here or there but it’s true. Not calling anyone weak or anything but it’s just a little snow or cold.
You’re still probably getting frost bite, and yes, the cellular damage caused by frostbite can add up over time making it quite severe even with the ‘casual’ exposure.
There’s no weakness in prudence. being imprudent can lead to it though (or rather amputations, at worst.)
Do you have a source to back that up? I’m having trouble finding anything that says you have to be out less than 15 minutes before frostbite kicks in. It’s like saying you’ll get frostbite in your hands if you hold some ice for a minute.
