No, not diamonds. Although diamond-studded shoe soles would be AWESOME! But, no. If I need to walk on freezey things and I don’t want to slide my brains out, I put on my Yaktrax.

Oh, honey, do they ever! My pal Jane gave me a pair, and I use them to walk back and forth to and from Mom’s when the footing is treacherous, as it is this week.

I am NOT being paid to write about this product, more’s the pity; I just think they’re terrific. If you get a pair and use them and slide anyway, don’t sue me. I’m just saying they work for ME, ‘kayz? And, no, that is neither me nor anybody I know in the picture. I totally ganked it from the Yaktrax website.

While we’re talking about slips and slides, why don’t we kick back and listen to a little Paul Simon. The song? What else but:

A WRITING PROMPT FOR YOU: A character has to cross a treacherous piece of ground. It doesn’t have to be ice.
