It was the 'done thing' to wear your good pearls all the time.
My mother always wore her pearls, every day. Apparently, keeping them against the skin kept up the lustre. Hmmm maybe I should go pop them on.........

We've come a long ways, ladies. June Cleaver needed to get a real life.

If I waited until I was all dressed up and mentally prepared, I'd never sew at all!

OMG that's funny! it's 4:00p and I haven't even brushed my hair yet! I woke up at 3:30 this morning thinking about the quilt I'm working on and couldn't go back to sleep! I have to say I wasn't crazy about the idea of the grandkids all geting hand held video games. Those things are a God send! I haven't had to leave the sewing room all day! Thank You Santa!
