Do you wear jeans and a shirt, or do you stay in your PJs all day long. I stay at home and most of the time im in my PJs and i dont care because whats the point in getting dressed if i never leave my house. I do wish i could get dressed up a little more but as long as i dont see a point i wont waste my time trying to look good. what do you do if you stay home. do you wear PJs all day or do you still get dressed?

I usually just get up in the morning and put on a tshirt and a pair of blue jeans and socks...beacuse i am not a pj kind of person I sleep in my boxers and just get up in the morning and put on my pants shirt and shoes...i do agree with you...no point in getting all dressed up for nothing...because you could use that time in doing something else!!! Besides in my opinion I would rather someone just stay in their pjs all day if thats who they are and just be themselfs around me, instead of getting dressed up for me if they dont want to!

I used to spend alot of time getting dressed everyday, but find in the last few months that I spend more time in my pajamas then I do anything else. Not working is pretty depressing for me and I don't have the energy for getting ready until its time to pick up my son from school. Even then, I usually just throw on a pair of jeans and a sweatshirt and just run a brush through my hair. Makeup optional. LOL.

Don't ever feel worthless. I don't know your situation, but I can say with certainty that you are important to someone you know and therefore, could never be deemed as anything less. As for not doing anything with your life, perhaps you should consider where your interests lie and pursue them. Its just a thought.

Hello libertarianfreedom21, Normally if I'm not going anywhere and I'm not expecting and company, I'll just wear my nightgown and a robe all day, If someone is coming over then I'll put on a pair of sweats and a tee shirt. If I'm not going anywhere, theres no reason to get dressed. Take care, Terry

So do I, I just don't bother to get changed. Instead, I just stay in my PJs all day long while I am at home. Another reason I don't want to get change is normally I will do a bit or chores like clean the house, iron the clothes that I feel comfort with my PJs rather than any other outfits. LOL

I wear my pj's most of the day, but if I have to go to the store or anything I change and then when I get home I put my pj's back on.. mostly because they are alot more comfy than jeans!!

i say it depends on the weather on that day. If it's hot, then i'll take my bath and change my dress. But, if it's cold, then i'll stay in my PJs up till 1 o'clock in the afternoon. Only then i'll take a bath.

I don't usually get dressed, either. I may put on a sweatshirt over my PJs if it's cold out, but that's about the extent of my dressing up on days I don't go out. My hair goes into a pony tail or a clippie and that's about it. I put on my favorite pair of house shoes and then just kick it around the house being comfy as I can be in my PJs. I love those days. I need more of them.

I absolutely love wearing my pajamas when i am home. I know people who actually get dressed, but for what? While i am wearing my pj's i top it off with a comfortable pair of slipper socks...............so so comfortable. I enjoyed this question.

I work at home and I dont dress up unless I go out. I dont wear pajamas when I got to sleep but shirts and boxers, so I basically stay in shirt and boxers when I stay at home.

Sunday is the day just lately where I never get dressed, and I just lounge about all day in my pjs! Its only recently I have started to do this and do you know what, I now look forward to sundays more because I just feel so comfy all day! Like you I just dont see the point of making the effort to look good if I dont even go out of the door. Its great!!

No, I don't wear PJs all day long.....yes, there are certain days when I do...but those are the days when I am harried (usually Saturdays when both the kids are home and hubby's working). But on most days, I dress in something presentable in the morning after my shower...even if I'm not leaving the house and even if I'm not expecting anyone.

When I am at home, which is only on Sundays, I wear my pair of PJs or skirt. I do not bother about my dress at all and all through the morning I am into it. However, in the afternoon after the nice, elaborate wash and shower I slip in a jeans or presentable dress. thanks.

Being a stay at home mom I usually just hangout in either my pjs or my yoga pants and a t-shirt...I see no reason for getting all dressed up and making more laundry for myself if I'm not going anywhere LOL

It's hot here in my country so my "home outfit" consists of shorts and a shirt. That's also what I sleep in. Just like you I'll only dress up if I have to go out.
