26 Going On 70

This climate is making me so much more like my Okie grandmother and great-grandmother...After both of my lukewarm/cold showers every day, I powder up. I see now where I grandma is coming from with this shit. Yes, Shower-to-Shower is old lady-scented, but I don't mind smelling like a sachet when I can be chafe-free and less sticky.

So then once I'm all lavender-ed up, I put on a "house dress" if anything at all. The a/c hovers around 80 degrees, which is comfortable but still a little sweaty. Why bother with real clothes? I was totally wearing this super sexy moo-moo when the maintenance guy came by today to fix some stuff.

I was inspired to buy this polyester beauty at House of Vintage by Tracie, my hero/stay-at-home Jezebel-editor extraordinaire. However, my great-grandma wore the same things everyday while she played solitaire on her coffee table and watched her "stories" or creepy televangelism.
Hmm, I watched True Blood and played Spider Solitaire on my laptop in between unpacking and doing housewife-y stuff today....

So, it's hot. And I am basically a crotchety old lady. As soon as we're mostly unpacked, I'll start looking for age appropriate hobbies/a job. But I'll still smell like a grandma.
