How long do you stay in your PJs?

No pjs for me , but always put badadas in my bath. Up and dressed before 9 usually.

I can manage 9 am!
Unless I'm washing my hair which takes some sorting out.

Untidy, dirty.
It means nothing to me, in terms of a person's worth.
No point living in a pristine palace being unkind.

I know, but apparently anyone wearing pjs and dressing gown after 6.05 am is untidy and/or slovenly according to this thread.

I'm still fast asleep ?

Anyone who passes judgment on another because they choose for their own reasons to stay in their PJs until whatever time suits them should be ignored. They are saying, in effect, I am virtuous, and you are not because you don't live like me.

Which is a tad on the arrogant side, no?

There are standards in public life - for obvious reasons - but how you dress in the privacy of your own home is no-one else's business and we don't have to justify ourselves with reasons why.

Some people are night owls, others, morning larks. If you are not impacting on anyone else's life, there is no wrong nor right about it.

I don't like staying in PJ's but if I did I would!

? * Azalea* and 4allweknow.

I've never been one for staying in my nightwear. I think it's because of having a husband who worked shifts, and having 5 children. Not disturbing him once he had gone to bed, and years of School Runs probably trained me to get showered and dressed first thing.
My 2 DDs, GD and GS, on the other hand, happily spend all day in them, at the weekends, and change into pjs and dressing gowns as soon as they get home from work.

I have found memories of my daughter's dog getting out of the garden and heading towards the field full of sheep at full speed.

Followed by my girl in a cow onesie!

The average person passes gas 15 to 25 times a day, and this can happen while you're sleeping," says Youn in a short new video. "And a scientific study proved that every time you pass gas, you are spraying a tiny amount of faecal matter. This is true, even if it's not a real shart. And that same study showed that your tighty-whities will catch all of these particles. So for the sake of your bed partner, please sleep with your underwear on."

This made me spit out my gin and tonic! Luckily, I live on my own so my farts, much more frequent than 15 to 25 times a day, do no harm to anyone! I’m sure one of my new medications, ( statins and anticoagulants) are to blame but I just let them rip if I’m on my own, I do show more restraint in company!

But of course, some “ladies” probably don’t fart, not like slovenly slobs like me!

It made me laugh, too.
I had heard the theory that nude sleepers' bedding probably took the brunt of their blow offs before, so I thought I'd include it.

I shower at night and generally wear one of Land's End pima cotton nightgowns, midi length long or short sleeve depending on the temperature. When I drag myself out of bed, if I am staying home, I put underwear on, brush my hair, wash face and hands, resume my nightgown, and do whatever jobs are on the schedule. The nightgowns are quite decent, really more like t shirt dresses and not see through so I don't hesitate to be outside in them, although I change to run errands outside my property. After 40 years of suits, heels and stockings, makeup and fixed hair, this is pure heaven! French women usually do the house en negligée and dress when they are ready to go out. They tend not to wear very casual clothes when out, even in smaller cities. I don't go out in trainers, etc., except perhaps for a long walk in one of our wilder parks.

I'm not even going to say what I do on days I'm not doing anything or expecting anyone. You'd all be disgusted [laugh]

Depends, If it is Thursday and I am working I am dressed as soon as I am out of bed around 7.30 rest of the week I dont change til after breakfast which could be anywhere between 7.30 and 9.30 depending when my husband wants to make breakfast

PJs give me wedgies so I wear nighties. Which I take off when I shower, some time between 6.45 and 7.30. Then I get dressed and go for a half hour walk.

I'm neither dirty or slovenly, and don't suffer from lack of self care, low self-esteem or self-respect, but I sometimes wear my pyjamas all day if I am in my own house, going nowhere and expecting no callers. ... self-respect is gained from how I treat others, not superficial things like clothing

Agree 100%

Ive done more than my share for the community so the most important person I aim to please at my age is myself.

COME ON MaggsMcG you need to share, we won't tell anyone, honest! Do you have a farting contest with yourself and try to beat your previous record, or what ?

Ps you might receive some disapproving comments on whatever your activities are, I mean can they be any worse than dead heading your roses wearing your nightwear ( lol) but I don't care if you do, just please share!

I love it when my partner goes out and I am on a day off! I revel in using the whole bed, drink tea, eat croissants in bed, read gransnet, potter about in my dressing gown till 12.00pm. The postie came to the door recently at midday whilst I was not yet suitably dressed. I pretended I had been on night shift!

I sometimes go to bed in my clothes, just in case someone knocks in the night and realises I wear pyjamas.

When he was a teenager my son would get into his pyjamas in the evening.
Then he'd put his jeans back on to go to bed.
He said he had to be at the paper shop to do his round by 7am and hadn't possibly got time to get dressed in the morning!
