And even if you decide you do want to live everyday like it was mid century you can do so mostly in your home life and still tailor it for your lifestyle and tastes and still feel like your "living vintage". <br /><br />It is difficult in this modern world to do everything exactly as they did back then and like you said some of it wasn't exactly the greatest of mindsets but after reading your Day 1 post, it seems like you are already off to a great start just doing what you can with what you've got! I think people forget just how important a housewife's role is/was then with all there is to be done, especially if you have kids.<br /><br />I am totally jazzed to see how the rest of this week goes for you.

I'm not trying to actually live EVERY day like it's the 40s or 50s but some things about the time were great, other things weren't. But I take and embrace the good of it!Mid Century Pinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14121172283126858494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3121660866664890658.post-91552152324206947632013-06-25T15:51:22.579-07:002013-06-25T15:51:22.579-07:00I think its great that you are at least going to t...I think its great that you are at least going to try just to see for yourself whether or not the lifestyle can help YOU in certain areas of your schedule, fab idea and that is what's most important! How it helps you, not someone who just wants to judge you because you aren't rollin' like some modern day women do. It's interesting how we, as vintage purist, get a lot of wonderful comments on the clothes but also a lot of flack for the LIFESTYLE aspect which seems crazy to me how people can't understand someone who likes to embrace the entire package. They only accept certain aspects of it that only they are comfortable with. Things were a lot simpler and more efficient back then, in some aspects, simply because of the way society operated itself.<br /><br />I'm hoping this experiment will help you find ways to find that happy median with everything you are looking for! Can't wait for the games to begin!Mia Vincenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03492584167956794922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3121660866664890658.post-89035504397121759752013-06-25T14:38:08.721-07:002013-06-25T14:38:08.721-07:00This is so, so exciting!

There's nothing in the universe wrong with being (or taking on the role of) a homemaker, in any era, whether for a day, a couple weeks, or the rest of your life (and if anyone gives you any flack, you just send them my way, I've got your back, dear gal!).<br /><br />♥ Jessica Witchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3121660866664890658.post-90058608014165471192013-06-25T09:48:32.414-07:002013-06-25T09:48:32.414-07:00I'm excited to see how this works out!

Since moving, I haven't been able to find work, and since I'm doing the whole "housewife" thing anyway, it seems fun. Trouble is, my husband is a truck diver and gone all the time...... So mine would be atypical too. Eh, there were people like us then too, so who cares ;)<br /><br />Sent you an Instagram request, I'm looking forward to your adventure!Voodoo Kittenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00387896888899108340noreply@blogger.com
