De-frumping

For the past, oh probably, 3 and a half years I have been in a frumpy state. With some help and encouragement, I'm trying to pull myself out of this and actually care about how I look.

The frumpifying began because getting dressed/ready takes SO much more time and energy than before. All the standing, bending, twisting in the getting ready process means I start out my day in more pain. It's just been easier to put on my jeans and hoodie and not deal with anything. Or gym pants and t-shirt. These clothes also just require moving them from washer to dryer to closet. Nothing extra.

One thing I've noticed is that many of the 'nicer' clothes require hang drying. This is one reason I love our screened in back porch. There are cris crossing clothes lines that make it much easier to hang dry clothes. As an added bonus, the colors don't get bleached out by the sun. Which would be sad because I love color! Also If I hang something out before I leave for work and the weather changes, as it often does, it dosen't get soaked in the rain.
