I work part time (about 15 hrs) and the rest of the time is homemaking and running my 17 year old around wherever he needs to go! I love wearing skirts and dresses but only at the salon (work). At home, my uniform is more Samantha Stevens from "Bewitched", comfy capri's and cute tee shirt. I set Pandora's Bing Crosby station on my computer and do the housework to that, makes it more fun!(?) lol.<br />I have been collectiong Good Housekeeping magazines from the '50's for a couple of months.... at first it was just going to be Jan to Dec of 1952.... but now I'm addicted. Looks like it might be the whole darn decade, I put each months out on my coffee table with my Martha Stewart Living. I'm looking forward to your Housewife updates as well as some of the vintage recipes you will make. Fun stuff for sure!!Lorie ~ Luray Lane Vintagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16244464984450361656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3121660866664890658.post-82255686273044677142013-06-20T09:14:19.220-07:002013-06-20T09:14:19.220-07:00Fabulous post!

One wants to be comfy and warm (or cool, depending on the season), look presentable, but not risk damaging clothes that you really love (and/or decades old). Classic housedresses and shirtwaist dresses are two options that I personally adore (and frequently wear) for days of heavy housework.<br /><br />♥ Jessica <br /><br />Witchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3121660866664890658.post-33894910529102792142013-06-20T07:23:11.887-07:002013-06-20T07:23:11.887-07:00So very funny, though that sounds a lot like my da...So very funny, though that sounds a lot like my day to day...minus the pretty dress as I usually reserve those for weekend outings. I probably don't get quite that much done either and I do spend a fair chunk of the a.m. on this here computer. The rest is kids, cleaning, and cooking with an evening cocktail :)Good luck to you that is quite a list!J.
