    BEFORE I GO ANYWHERE.....

    Some people won't leave their home without full makeup and hair in perfect order, while we know there are many who got out in robe and slippers (and worse).


    What's the MINIMUM for you to leave the house?  I wear clothes I don't sleep in, face washed, teeth brushed, hair combed.  How about you?

    I always try to look like somebody owns me when I leave the house.Without going overboard.

    Not really much fussy, as long as I and my clothes are clean, tops and jeans well ironed mostly.

    You iron your jeans? A well folded pair looks just as good if not more natural……...

    Not from my washer they don't, Mickey had never ironed jeans before she came here.

    You make HER iron your clothes? You can’t make me believe she volunteers. In Texas, jeans are never ironed unless you are Hispanic in which case, you need a beer in you hand……

    I do most of the ironing Julie, it's the only way it gets done properly ;)

    I’ve never been able to iron a shirt quickly, a button down. Know any secrets?

    Other than taking your time and having a good steam iron there's not much to it.

    I have a brand new steam iron....brand new....three years in the box...brand new...if my clothes are wrinkled, people are distracted from my face wrinkles.

    @R...Do you mean in her clothing or on her face?

    Not saying, nothing that an ex-military man couldn't flatten out though.

    I never wear anything but jeans & Maggie wouldn't let me leave the house unless they were ironed.Even my work jeans get the once over.

    Shave,shower,clean teeth, and clean clothes, a dab of deodorant , after shave sometimes,and clean shoes especially clean shoes.

    My father was a fanatic about clean shoes too. He said it was the most important thing to observe, if you want to know how a person really lives. :)

    Yes my father and brother's were like that too Ducky, they certainly influenced me, I think that may have came from them doing National Service.

    I like a man that keeps himself clean and looking nice and smelling fresh. And keeps his shoes clean and buffed, providing he's wearing real shoes,and not just running shoes.....And doesn't look like he balled up his shirt at night and put it on the bed under his balled up other clothes.

    I brush my teeth brush my hair and make sure I'm wearing my over the shoulder boulder holder.

    That's what my mom told me too Tommy. :)

    CB: That is so true!!! Ba-zing

    Showered and wearing casual, clean clothing and make up. Without make up, I get asked if I'm feeling okay?             lol

    Bob/PKB

    I doubt that! I picture you the picture of beauty!
    Ducky

    Moderator
    My "beauty" apparently looks more alive with a little make up. :)
    Bob/PKB

    No one says anything whether I'm made up or "real".

    Darn! I guess you'll have to plaster it on if you want some attention. :)

    Good-bye cruel world; I'm off to join the circus.
    Tommyh

    You are one of the lucky ones Phyl.Like my Maggie.Makeup doesn't matter.

    I try to brush my hair. Whether or not I put my teeth in depends on where I’m going, if I’m leaving the property I put them in……...

    Bob/PKB

    You always look good.
    jhharlan

    You’ve just been blinded by my Texas highlights……...
    Bob/PKB

    Nah, you don't have a "bad" side.

    I'm option # 2 .......like you are, Phyllis---face washed, teeth brushed, hair combed.


    . And my mom too, wouldn't be caught dead without her lipstick on and rings and a necklace that matches her outfit and purse.- - - -     and wearing   an outfit that matches. Young people today wear everything and anything whether it matches or not.

    Bob/PKB

    It's really a mix of stuff with the young....some will go out looking like h*ll and some spend 2 hours before opening the door. I don't know which is worse!

    Minimum on leaving the house, In summer: hole-y-ragget t-shiry and shorts, ID and car keys,  tennis shoes no socks...stinky, sweating, dirty head-to toe with a grim attitude, unshaven for 3 days, and cross manners, cheap sunglasses and a couple of beers hanging off my tool belt.


    I was ticketed twice for driving nude in southern California with several other nude people between sets...years ago. Bathrobes are commonly used these days. 


    Usually fully clothed for the season, in fairly new or freshly laundered clothes clean shoes and socks, clean, shaven and smelling of lavender.

    You;re a hellava guy Rob.LOL

    Well I usually have my face washed and hair combed .


    Sometimes a little perfume and ironed clothes . 


    This is when I go to some important place but if simply out side than anything will work for me under normal circumstances .

    I go to the bathroom.Bugger the makeup.

    If I could mention about how Romos! dressing in iron jean? Hmm? iron kilt would be more like his stile, if you'd ask me? Anyhow to answer your question, my dressing is little more relaxing in my old age, and being clean shave, brush teeth well the fake one that is I've gotten out of jean, never seem to find some that fit right, so went into more a relaxing kind. Oh almost forgot cut and clean finger and toe nail.

    Bravo, Rolly, for keeping your nails trimmed and cleaned
