caught still in my nightgown at 9 am (on topic)

I decided to try those athletic things once. Bought two. Came home
and started to try on one of them. Over my head. There I was, arms in
air, big elastic band tying elbows to head--immovable. It took me over
10 minutes of real panic to finally get free. The police should consider
using those things for really unruly prisoners.

Oh, Ruth! LOL I can't lift my arms over my head, so I pull the bras on
over my feet. They occasionally get hung up on my butt, but that's not
near as bad as you with your arms stuck in the air.... I could still put
on a shirt before I call 911 with just my hips involved! vbeg Sorry
it didn't work for you--- they are so comfy!

I have a sports bra with hooks and eyes in the front. They are your friends!

Hooks and eyes are our friends. You cant do the houdini trick with a
sports
bra either.
As my shoulders get older they dont want to do the tricky manuevers
either.
Lets save them for more important things like quilting!

You go girl!! Some days I bath and dress just in time before DH gets home.
I actually solved the problem by buying some PJs that can pass for actual
clothing. Now if the unexpected visitor shows up, I can still answer the
door (or I can just not answer and pretend I'm not home, lol).

Yep, rather convinient(sp) to wear PJ's that look like normal clothes.
Some of my PJ's are/were normal clothes!

Yes, my husband and his whole family. Then we listen to how much his mother
must clean to keep the floors clean. I have a hard time getting him to take
them off. It drives me crazy. We were never allowed to wear shoes in the
house. If we did we got screamed at for as long as it took mother to clean the
floor. Go figure.

I figured that I was paying for those horrible gowns whether I wore
them or not, so I wore them. Yes, giving birth and then nursing can be
messy, I let them do the laundry. I never bought those nursing bras or
clothes. Just pull your regular, albeit larger and no under wire, bra
up and let it plop out pull up your shirt and feed that child.

As for staying in my night clothes all day or until late, well I sleep
in the altogether so I grab my clothes and dress (in genes/shorts and
T-shirt) no shoes unless I'm going out side. I once served
Thanksgiving Dinner (to company) in my bare feet and never even
realized it.

I've never been able to understand this business about not wearing shoes in
the house. I need those shoes to support my feet. I have very high arches
& am extremely uncomfortable bare footed. I always wear my shoes in the
house!

That must be the reason. I am TOTALLY flat footed. Hubby does have an arch. Even
tried to switch him to slippers, but he says it's not the same.

I hate to wear shoes - anywhere. At work, I tend to wear clogs or open
backed shoes so I can slip them off under my desk. At home, I take them off
as soon as I get home from work or where ever. I used to wear slippers, but
then we got Kirby............

Now I wear socks.

This 'new' hooligan dog I have doesn't eat shoes but loves
to run around with a sock in her mouth. She likes them
dirty or clean. She is so very odd.
I grew up not wearing shoes much. After moving to the
desert I learned to wear shoes. Too many stickers and the
ground is hot. I still don't like wearing shoes in the house.
