[quote=Anonymous]Hmm, I have 2young boys and a very clumsy DH. My house was built in the 50's. Due to most of these things we have mostly hand me down or (good-looking) consignment store/yard sale furniture. Our hardwood floors are original, and we painted 5 years ago. Our floors have no noticeable scratches and between our magic eraser and some touch-up paint our house looks great. Honestly, I think this has more to do with OCD (and I am very particular myself) than it does with actual incidents. OP, we don't wear our shoes in the house either, but if we have company or a contractor I just clean up after they leave. Assuming these people arent walking through fields of dirt and mud, maybe you are being so persnickety that they get annoyed at being treated like they are a muddy dog in your house as opposed to a human being and they are being less careful because of that? Try a different, less unfriendly approach and maybe people will be more careful with your things. [/quote]
