Do I HAVE To Get Dressed?

I'm loving DAY 2 of my retirement!
It's 2:30 P.M. and I'm still in my nightgown.
I could learn to like this lifestyle!
(This actually might not be a good thing, but don't ruin my 2nd day of
retirement by telling me I should get dressed and comb my hair.)

Not that I've been eating chocolates and napping...nope!
(Okay, so maybe a couple peanut M&M's made their way into my mouth.)

I've been sewing hexies, monkey quilts, and this skirt for my doll..
I was sure she needed a skirt and bow since That Other Lady added one
to hers. Whoops! That sounds a little competitive doesn't it. 
We know I'm not, so this was just a copy cat kind of thing....right?

I think I may have to take up oil painting to fill some of my time...or not!

Less than 5 days until Ho Ho Ho projects start showing up
all over some really cool blogs....can you say
  E-X-C-I-T-E-D!

  1. Doll looks happy in her skirt and bow. But she is asking-why can't she wear her nightie too? She doesn't have to go to work either!

  6. Hi Carol. My retirement motto is If it doesn't HAVE TO be done, then don't do it. Lounging around in pj's and sewing makes a great day. Enjoy!

  7. Just enjoy handing out in your pjs for awhile we all deserve it. I find most of my friends that are retired are busier then ever and I took on looking after my grandson who is blind for three days a week and when I have a day I love to sew in my pyj's. Congratulations on your retirement a d enjoy.

  14. I retired three years ago and had to make a few rules. 1. I had to get up shower and dress no later than 9:30am. 2. I would sew everyday. Those are basically it. I am not a morning person and could stay in bed til noon. Have fun. So far it is a blast.
