Poll question: Home alone: Dressed or not?
Whether you live alone, or happen to be at home without SO or roomies or anyone else, how do you dress (or not) when you're guaranteed to be alone without someone coming in?

I happen to be one who stays in nightshirts or bathrobe when I know that interruption is extremely unlikely (I live alone, regardless). But I've heard some people actually get completely dressed up even if there isn't anyone around.

1. Body paint , a sweatband, and knee socks.
Because it's the way.

2. I never get out of my "street clothes" until just before bed.
And I usually sleep in sweats (I'm VERY cold blooded) or a nightshirt and pants, because I never know when someone will come to the door. I'm never completely "off duty", apparently.

3. sweatpants
or shorts. A t-shirt or sweatshirt, depending on the season.

I have cats with claws who like to get in my lap, I'd be shredded if I didn't have something on. :)

9. Depends on the temperature.
Cold weather: Fleece pj pants with a sweat shirt.
Cool weather: Flannel pj pants with long sleeved t-shirt.
Warm weather: Shorts & t-shirt.
Hot weather: T-shirt only.

The only time I get completely dressed when I'm alone is if I'm feeling down. I fix my hair & makeup then too.
Sometimes looking good makes me feel better, if that makes sense.

14. I'm thinking I'm hanging out where I can find you when it gets
HOT

T-shirt only :woohoo:

so if you don't look all fixed up then one could assume you were feeling pretty good :shrug:

18. LOL
Well when it's hot it's too hot for clothes. So what won't you be wearing? :P

No, I get all fixed up when I'm feeling good too. It just takes more effort when I'm not feeling good.
