Actually, my most recent shopping trip for clothes (which I HATE to do BTW), found me in the men's department of Kohl's, purchasing knit & flannel lounge pants, as everything in the women's department was too fussy and more expensive. I just sewed up the flies & they are sooooo comfy. I got a couple pairs that look like denim, but are very soft flannel. I wore them on our vacation to the Endless Mountains, and went back to buy more when we got home. They are my new "jeans". That's all I wear! Lol! I found heavier ones for winter, and lighter ones for summer. And concerning recovery time after social gatherings... I know that feeling too well, and the associated perception problems of "really, yer fine, just knock it off already." The difficulty with MCS is like being deaf- when you look at me, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with me, or different, than anybody else. Walk by me with a light fragrance and watch me wilt. And for family occassions, I'll suffer through a lot more than I normally would, and I'm ill for days afterwards. And I don't complain. My mother used to complain whenever she was on the verge of wilting. She'd always use it as an excuse to martyr herself for perks and to get us to wait on her. Drives me insane,, so I don't want to be like that. -georg |

Wow! I'm so relieved to find out I'm not the only one at home, disabled, and
not getting dressed every day! I've been feeling very lazy, but NO MORE. From now on, I'm going to happily quilt away in my comfy nightgown/robe/jammies or whatever and forget the guilt. Debbie in MN |

That's how I do it. When DD got her first bra, we had a show down to see who
could do it the fastest. Well, poor kid was up against years of experience. -- LN in NH a crazy quilter * hand quilter * & hand appliquér all in all --- a very slow quilter....

Heck, Im as able bodied as they come and I still dont bother getting dressed
for less than a wedding. Why should you be held to different standards? :-) Comfortably dressed quilters unite! Diana -- http://photos.yahoo.com/lunamom44 "DMOscarson" wrote in message ... Wow!

Mine comes off as soon as I know I won't be going out anymore for the
day. I call out "release the hounds!" and off it comes. I also hate wearing a bra, but do so ALL the time except for when bathing. The result? In spite of being "blessed" in the bosom department, I hang no where near my knees..... or even my waist. At 53 and after losing 80 lbs. I could go without in public and no one would know it. There IS a benefit to wearing those darn uncomfy "flopper-stoppers". Leslie who now wears "athletic bras" and looks like a giant speed bump on the chest, but is oh-so comfy! Love 'em!!! The HairyFacedOnes 'N Me- My dogs aren't my whole life... they make my life whole. RCTQ- Houston 2004..... A good friend will come and bail you out of jail.... but, a true friend will be sitting next to you saying, "Damn... that was fun!" |

It is a normalcy for me not to shower and dress until 12pm when the baby is down for a nap. I have had such bad days in the past that my DH will come home from work and I am STILL in my pjs! I am trying to be better about it but is so hard! Janice |
