Not to stick up for her again,But I have seen Jon's ashy feet on the table too.... If I was chasing 8 kids all day,I think the bottom of my feet might be my least worry..

I'm just shocked that an OCD clean freak would go around putting their dirty feet on a table! But maybe since it wasn't her table...

I was afraid to say anything as it would appear that I am making it personal toward Kate, or people would think it was one more thing to pick on. It wouldn't matter who it was, it is a bit gross to look at. It hasn't made me change the channel, but what it makes me think every time I have seen her do it is that I bet she is going to have a heart attack when she sees this. I run around barefoot all the time and pick up dust and such on my feet and probably don't think twice about having them up on the table or whatever, but if I saw them on video tape I would be mortified. I am betting that it freaked her out, not because it was Kate but because that would embarrass most. I don't put my feet up with thoughts of 9 million viewers that is for sure!

Indeed, Brenda Guess she's only OCD when it comes to her stuff. Filthy habit, dirty feet on furniture.

Huh, I think furniture is there to enjoy and as for the view.. blame the editors, not Kate or Jon or their various feet. If this was the thread for Obsession, it would likely be an exercise designed to help someone get over being overly phobic about germs or feet or tables or.. whatever they obsess about. I don't walk around barefoot at all but when I sit, I flip off my shoes but luckily no cameras in sight.. and I tend to sit cross-legged, not with feet up anyway.

"If this was the thread for Obsession, it would likely be an exercise designed to help someone get over being overly phobic about germs or feet or tables or.. whatever they obsess about." Huh? Absolutely no clue what this means. Translation, please?

Agreed Sea,furniture is for comfort.If it was in a Formal Living Room,it would be one thing.But obviously this set is supposed to be where they relax and reflect on past activities. I can't stand to let my legs dangle personally,and if the bottom of my feet are dirty,avert your eyes elsewhere,like the desk that needs dusting. And since you are over there and notice it,dust it please.

I agree, my feet are up now. I am afraid to look at them now though. I am glad she is comfortable; I just feel for her as I am betting it embarrassed her. It would me.

LOL - Personally, I don't care about Kate's feet or what she does with them. But carry on.

Thank's Stacey & Tishala, I'll get around to watching Monday's episode sooner than later. Still haven't decided if I'm going to watch the motorcycle episodes. Actually Holly I wouldn't be on TV - I'm not worthy. *L* Jimmer, I've yet to see said feet. Knowing me I'd probably not have even noticed BEFORE but NOW I probably will. Oh and BTW to all concerned, I've taken a shower since posting last time and now my tootsies are squeaky clean!

For as clean and neat that kate portrays herself, her feet were never part of the deal. Remember her walking around barefoot at one of the gas stations on their road trip to Florida?

I'm not sure I remember the actual episode, but I do remember a Q&A show where Kate was asked why she would walk around barefoot at a gas station but would not allow anybody to walk barefoot on the motel floor. Her answer was that you didn't know how often the carpet was cleaned and who/what had been on the carpet, but the concrete at the gas station was washed regularly with rain. Or something like that.

I'm a bare-footer by nature and I think Kate is too. She often is seen in the driveway (of their old house) yelling for Jon's help or calling the kids. Some people are just don't bother to slip shoes on...I'm however not sure I'd step down onto the gas staion cement unless as Kate mentined in the interview it had just rained.

I'm a barefooter too. While I'd never walk barefoot on gas station cement, I've probably walked on things Kate wouldn't walk on.

When i was kid we moved to Brisbane Australia. None of the other kids at school wore shoes and the teacher had to tell my mom to quit sending me to school with shoes on. I was the misfit wearing shoes.

Holly .. sorry, not Obsession but Obsessed.. a reality show about people with obsessions, OCD and such and how they do cognitive therapy to be able to deal with their various problems.. in one show it was a guy who was so obsessed with cleanliness that he basically couldn't allow people into his hom.. he was desensitized in some fairly graphic ways. ../156/6597226.html"#E7EFEF"> | Ophiliasgrandma

I'm asking God to bless Kate with the wisdom, strength, courage, and lots of peace to get through this awful time.

If I were asking god to take time out for a reality show broken family I'd ask him for Jon to get those kids and save them from mommy's pimping.

Sea, now that makes sense--thought you were talking about the perfume for a second, lol--I was unaware that there was a reality show about obsessions and OCD folks. Bet it was interesting though. Mgmriver, ROFL. And for all you barefoooters out there...did ya know you can catch hookworm and roundworm from walking barefoot outside? Just sayin', lol.
