Which is kind of weird (to call a slipper a beddie), because you don't where slippers IN the bed.
She also calls a vaccuum cleaner a sweeper. Which of course makes no sense.
She calls taking the dog out to pee, "watering the dog".
My mother has problems.

LOL. Watering the dog.
Yes, it's a slipper but it's wearing a sign that claims it is a footlet, which, as we have come to understand, is a low sock covering either the whole foot below the ankle or only the toes. I think it's having an identity crisis. I could wear a sign that says i'm a rutabaga but it wouldn't make me one. Seems we always come back to this on these boards. Who gets to say how we identify? We do. If i look at that way, I guess it's a footlet. But I think it might have been coerced. And it looks like a slipper to me.
My mother called them house slippers, I guess to distinguish them from all her other slippers. Her ballet slippers, her ballroom slippers, her glass slippers and of course her ruby slippers. There's no place like home.
