The Dederick Family Shoes

A long time ago, I made an impulse purchase at Wal-mart. A pair of slip on Dr. Scholl's. How was I to know that many, many years later these same shoes would come to be known as "The Dederick's Family Shoes"? Well, it's true. We all wear them. We slip them on to run out to the chicken coop, over to Nancy's, up to Grandma's, out to get the paper, etc, etc, etc. If we all need to go somewhere, and the shoes have all ready been taken, we stack up at the door, like pringles...and stare, not really sure what to do. My family members can tell if someone from my family is visiting someone else's house, they just look for the family shoes, kicked off by the front door. We aren't proud...those are awesome shoes, and we all love them! I think everyone else is just jealous. And yes, I have been half way up the street or maybe even farther into town and realized that I forgot to change.
