Fuzzy Slipper Skates
Wiggling free from the knitted draft stopper, I squeezed flat under the door crack right into the quiet apartment entryway. Sitting right on the polished floorboards was a pair of giant, fluffy fleece slippers! A refrigerator click hummed softly around the corner—and I froze instantly, rigid as an icicle, holding every breath until silence settled down. Snap! I bounded forward and plunged both fuzzy feet straight down into the squishy linings. They swallowed my toes in thick, tickly cloud-warmth! With a breathy gasp—shhh—I shoved one foot forward, gliding smoothly across the glossy timber. Shuffle, scuff, swoosh! Walking in giant woolly sleds is delightfully bouncy!
