AJuff Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 If it's dirty it definitely goes in the washing basket. If something is "partly worn" it goes on a chair in the bedroom - sort of folded but not neatly. I do sometimes end up with quite a few items on the chair. Ditto Snap!! Whilst were on this subject . . . my friend is appaled that I will wear a bra for two days before washing it. She thinks they should be clean on each day! Am I just being smeggy???

Kirstine Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 I'm not going to disclose how long I wear a bra for! I know a couple of women who sleep in theirs, in which case I probably would wash it daily. I wash fancy bras by hand, as well, as it is the washing that wears them out rather than the wearing. I also have a friend who washes jeans after every wearing - she says they don't last very long, and no wonder! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I know someone who buys designer jeans (more money than sense) and has them dry cleaned so they don't fade!!! It's not good to wear a bra at night - a friend who did was lectured by her doc - the lymph on the glands under the arm and around the breast need to be unconstricted at some time in the day so that the fluid can drain away. I have to say that when I get home it's the first thing that comes off! In the summer, the rest of my underwear comes off too - far too hot! I remember seeing some TV programme ages ago where some people were doing a sort of Kim and Aggie thing about peoples' cleanliness; one young lass wore her bra for a month without washing it, they tested it for bacteria and microbe thingies and it was dirtier than a toilet seat!!!!!!

Lesley Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I should hope not! I'd rather wear a straight-jacket - I'm always wriggling mine off under my clothes as soon as we're back in the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I'm not going to disclose how long I wear a bra for! I know a couple of women who sleep in theirs, ooh noo... I could not wear a bra in bed! Is anyone else like me and wears their mis matched old "garden/chook" clothes a few days running?? (hope so!) Work clothes are hung up All casual clothes are folded in the airing cupboard.

The Dogmother Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 You're not alone Chelsea, I leave my chook clothes until they're pretty grubby before they warrant washing. I also have a pair of old tracksuit bottoms which I pull on over my PJs in the morning when I go to walk the dog; they get re-used too.

Plum Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 You're not alone Chelsea, I leave my chook clothes until they're pretty grubby before they warrant washing. So do I but trouble is I wear them most of the time now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 There's quite a demarkation in my life as I have to dress formally for work, so in the morning, the tracksuit bottoms ond big fleece go on top of my PJs for walking the dog and feeding the animals. Then I shower and change for work - very smart. When I get home, the smart stuff comes off and I get into my chicken/casual clothes... far more comfortable.

Valkyrie Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Is anyone else like me and wears their mis matched old "garden/chook" clothes a few days running?? (hope so!) Me too Chelsea. I have found that when I wear something clean it soon becomes chook clothing. Actually I probably have more chook clothes than decent now. And why bother changing when you are getting hot and sweaty with a hoover or cleaning the loo! I added another T-shirt to the rubbish clothes yesterday giving Sioux her first ever bum bath. She wasn't impressed. What made it worse was that she had had a dust bath and so I ended up covered in mud (now well engrained into the fabric by her scrabbling to escape) while she ended up with an even fluffier bottom! I should have changed first, but I didn't want fly strike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
