When you are home from a “crazy” day at work, it’s really nice to climb into your PJ’s, Slippers and Robe yourself for some relaxation time. The Evening is yours and so are most weekends.
Comfort and warmth are so nice after a day of running like the Mad Hatter in Alice in Wonderland. Everyone needs to enjoy their “down-time.”
Working in the world today is a rat race for most people.
Being able to come home, to your own personal space and just relax is a much-needed respite from all the activities of the day. Pour yourself a glass of wine or beer, or a cup of coffee or tea. It’s time to relax and not feel any pressure to accomplish anything. A quick shower, then, change into PJ’s, a Robe and slippers! You just described the perfect downtime!
Kicking off your shoes, dress pants/work attire, it’s like being set free. No more expectations for the day, just relax, refresh and renew.
Being able to put on a comfortable robe, let’s you free yourself of all the restrictions of the day past. A comfortable robe and slippers will let you lounge about in your skivvies, you want to. If someone comes to the door, you are still able to answer it, if you want to.
Some slippers to put on your feet will have you basking in the knowledge that you are warm, toasty, comfortable and above all relaxed.
Sometimes we need to make time for letting down our defenses and just enjoying the moment. It may be a night of watching your favorite TV show, or your taped episodes on the PVR. What is important is the quality of that time spent relaxing. I don’t know about you, but I would not be able to relax completely if I was still dressed to go to work. I want to leave that behind and enjoy “my time.”
A good balance of work and play makes you a much more productive person. All work and no play will make you burn out! Take the time, that is yours to enjoy the comforts of home and family. Relax, refresh and renew, tomorrow is another day.

I love to wear my warm robes on cold winter evenings. I also look forward to getting out of my shoes and into my slippers when I’m home for the day and can relax.
Grammie Olivia says
Me too Barbara, I love getting out of the daily clothes and get those slippers on my feet! I need a new robe though, mine is in tatters….
Dawn Rae says
There’s not much I like better than slipping into my jammies at the end of the day.
Grammie Olivia says
Oh Dawn, I hear you! There is something so wonderful about taking off the clothes of the day in favor of something really comfortable. PJ’s and a robe do it for me too, to the point that I need a new robe. Do you hear me Santa?????
Pamela Arsena says
Relaxing is such an overlooked part of our daily lives. I love lounging around in my robe and reading.
Grammie Olivia says
You are so right Pamela, we have all these devices to do things for us and we forget to relax and enjoy some of our time. I love my robe too, sometimes too much.
Wednesday Elf says
I’m retired, but I DO enjoy working with my online sites at home in my pjs and robe. 🙂
Grammie Olivia says
It is a comfy way to work now isn’t it Miss Elf? There are days when I don’t have to go anywhere in particular, and I will do as you do. Stay in the PJ’s and my tattered robe.
Martie says
I couldn’t agree more, as I sit here in my white, fuzzy robe and memory foam slippers! 🙂
Grammie Olivia says
Martie, I’m glad you are relaxing and comfy too. I need a new robe mine has become tattered from overuse. New slippers are always welcome too.
Cynthia says
There is truly nothing more wonderful than a warm, comfortable robe!
Grammie Olivia says
I so agree, this year I need a new one, mine has become quite tattered. On my wishlist, it goes and the family better check out my wish list or else……just kidding of course.
