Doing stuff in the buff?

I hear that. If we lived in the country I would have no worries about doing all yard work nude, back and front. I hate that winter is coming. Just waiting for my husband to retire and then it will be summers here in IL and winters some place warm that has a privacy fence:cool:
Then you can get rid of most of you cold weather clothes and probably some of the warm weather ones, too!

Someone on this board who hasn't posted for a while said that he and his partner were looking forward to a retirement home that was in a warm location and private enough that they would only need clothes when they had errands to do in town. For further laundry reduction, they were looking into getting a full body blow dryer for the bathroom. How does that life style sound to you?

I recently retired so I'm home everyday. There is nothing more freeing then to be able to walk around naked. My husband leaves for work at 6:15 and from the minute I wake up until until around 3:00 I'm bare assed. I do the housework, laundry, cook and everything else including taking care of the dogs all done totally naked. I have learned that it seriously cuts down on the amount of laundry I have to do. There are only two 2 story homes on my street, the one at the beginning of the street and mine which is in the middle. All of the rest are ranch styles. Last year just prior to retiring I spent about 15K to have a solid pressure treated deck board fence put up to totally enclose the back yard. You can't see between the slats at all. I hated to at first because we are so friendly with the neighbors and at first I think it hurt their feelings, but we've been friends for so long I just told them the truth, I told them when I retire I'm going to become a "home nudist". They laughed and thought that was the funniest thing. They soon realized that I wasn't kidding when the fence started going up. It was so liberating that first time last year when I could spend time reading or watching the news in the morning with coffee just sitting outside naked. With no other two story house where folks could possibly look down into the back of my yard it's wonderful. It's awesome to grill out naked as well standing there sipping on a cocktail. My husband doesn't have as strong a desire to be that free but he does sit out on the screen in porch on the weekends naked while he enjoys his coffee. We have also had some great sex on the deck now that no one can watch.

Yesterday I mowed the backyard, at first I started out wearing only a Bike Throwback Edition jock. It felt awesome. Half way through I took it off and mowed the rest of the yard naked. Then proceeded to weed with the weed eater. Had a near miss when it kicked back a piece of mulch. It hit me in my inner thigh just above the knee. That was it, time to put the jock back on. So mowing nude, totally doable, weed eating nude, not so much...... maybe next week I'll wear a Bike jock with a hard cup for that chore.
Funny 'caught naked story', in May we received a postcard from the power company saying that the tree crews would be coming around sometime in the future to look at the trees in the backyard of every home in the neighborhood to determine if they needed to be cut back away from the power lines. I have since learned that limbs need to be cut 10 feet back and away from all lines. Sometime in late June I had just finished mowing, yes naked, and was relaxing with eyes closed on the deck listening to the water fountain in the garden and kind of halfway stroking my semi. I didn't hear the gate door open because of the fountain but I did hear the voices of the two tree trimmers as they came around the corner and there I was - dick in hand. The first guy immediately threw his arm out in front of the second as if to stop him from moving. He just looked at me and said, "Sorry, sorry, we're the tree crew for the power company, we came to look at the trees,we can come back" His partner looked up and saw me laying naked and just said, 'oh shit man'.
I just said, "go ahead its fine" His reply was "if you're sure". They were in and out in record time. Before they left I asked them when they thought they would be coming back to trim. He grinningly said, "I not sure but we'll mark this address a 'call first' before trimming." They both waved as they left. I told my husband when he got home, he laughed so hard he had tears rolling down his face.
Are you and your husband often nude together after he gets home?
 
was just naked by the pool cleaning the patio and grilling dinner. I did put on apron to grill

He goes in cycles, he's not as comfortable being totally naked as I. When he gets home he strips down to his underwear until we go to bed. On the weekends he gets up earlier than I, and will have his morning coffee outside on the deck naked and will stay nude until usually after breakfast. Then he showers and will come down in boxer briefs or shorts. He does like to lay out and get some sun naked and will be totally nude for a few hours. Some evenings when we start our cocktail hour, around 4pm he will strip down and sit outside. So it varies with him. He gets too worried that someone will drop by. But he has no problem answering the door in his boxer briefs. He does that all the time. I keep a pair of shorts down stairs in the laundry room in the event someone comes a knocking.

So then you are generally nude whether he is or not?
Have you gotten rid of much of your clothing since you retired?
Another man on another board took getting rid of clothes to the extreme. He and his partner are about the same size, and the partner is an occasional nudist like you husband and has quite a bit of clothing. After the nudist partner retired, he gradually gave away or threw out all of his clothes and just borrows something on the rare occasions he needs to wear anything.

Yes I'm generally nude all day even when he is not. He likes it. When he sees me in clothes when he gets home he will always ask "did you just get home?" ...As I think I said earlier, as soon as he gets home, he gets down to his boxer briefs and that's it. He will, if its really hot out and we are sitting either on the deck or the florida room he will take them off and stay nude the remaining part of the night. But its normally always just down the boxer briefs, except for morning coffee which he is full on nude, and weekend cocktail hour where we sit out on the deck. He is afraid of the dogs jumping and making contact I think. Although I can't see either one of our dachshunds could ever make that possible. He doesn't like to have the dogs sitting on his lap when he is naked when they want some 'daddy time' either.
Regarding clothing. I have donated most of my business suits and alike clothing to good will - held back a few nice suits (Armani and Brookes Brothers) in case there is a some social event we need to go to (wedding, funeral, party etc) Kept some ties and I still have a dozen or so dress shirts still in the original wrappers. Now its mostly shorts and tees and jeans and polos for times when I need to go out.
Comment on my husbands clothes: If he ever decided to be a true home nudist - which I doubt, but I will work on him. He has no idea what it feels like to mow or garden bare assed. But maybe he will. When he does mow he wears his favorite Silkies or ranger panties as some people call them. But if he decides to go full nude after retirement, he would need to keep his own clothes. My husband is 6'3" about 190 pounds, size 12 shoe.. His inseam is 35. He is a pretty cool drink of water. I'm 5'9" 170 pounds and size 81/2 shoe with an inseam of 29", we are the same waist size though. So we wouldn't fair well trying to get into each others pants.....no pun intended:eek:
 
I think you got it backward. The one who retired first got rid of his clothes. I should have added that he did keep some footwear and outerwear, because his partner does not have an excess of these.
How long have you been retired? I gradually reduced my wardrobe over a 4 year period. At this point, I am down to one blazer, 2 pair of dress casual slacks, 3 dress shirts and about a half dozen ties, plus a fair amount of collared shirts and true casual wear. My clothes now fit in half my closet and drawer space, an I no longer have to store any out of season clothes and have moved my light outerwear to my closet from the hall coat closet, so I have well less than half the clothes I had when I was working. Probably at the minimum for pants and shorts, but could still have a few too many shirts.

PS. Since you are the same width, even if not height, you could probably pool you shorts and short sleeve and sleeveless shirts.
Do you wear underwear when you dress?

Great idea about the shorts, I never that about that. THX.. I haven't worn underwear since I started college back in 1981. I 've been freeballing every day of my adult life. That has resulted is a few uncomfortable situations - but I do enjoy wearing a jock and will often times start out mowing while wearing one but half way through I take it off. Some of the pouches tend to bunch my nuts too snuggly.

Sorry I totally missed this reply. My closet space has greatly improved since retirement. I still have all of my shoes though,around 40 pair, some I have never worn so I should focus on that I guess. We could probably consider combining closets but just haven't gotten around to it. The only things in my dresser drawers are socks and jocks and a few vee neck tees

Then you keep all of your shorts and ts that are not undershirts in a closet?
 
PS again. I got rid of my undershirts along with my underwear after I retired.
 
I've often done dirty or dusty construction-type work around the house naked. Since I will usually shut off the A/C to keep the dust from being sucked into the system, this helps stay comfortable, besides avoiding soiled clothes. It's amazing how much heat rises up near the ceiling when you're up there on a ladder.

Ironically, I was actually wearing just sweatpants, because I had to step outside for something, the moment the fuckbud showed up unannounced as I was working on the wall around some newly-installed patio doors. I had just mixed about 50 pounds of plaster, which hardens quickly, when he showed up, badly needing some DaddyDick. "But I've got to do this now," I said. "It's going to get hard soon." "Oh," he said. "You mean the plaster?" I climbed the ladder, and started plastering the wall. Not to be discouraged, he went under the ladder, pulled down my sweatpants, and started blowing me as I worked. I hastily finished the plastering, put my tools in water so they wouldn't be impossible to clean later, and took care of him. (And spent hours later fixing the hasty plastering job...) So this is why you should work naked...you never know who is going to show up at the front door.

That sounds like heaven. Some place warm, sunny with access to the ocean. There is a ton of property for sale in St. Thomas USVI, now most of the lots are dirt cheap since the massive hurricane there 2 years ago. We vacation on St. Thomas often and have discussed buying a lot down there and making it totally gated and enclosed. I just shutter at the thought of building another home, especially one so far away. One of us would need to be there on a regular basis to ensure the work was what we wanted and paid for. We built our current home in 2001 and I was constantly having to put the general contractor back on task. I can't imagine how it would be somewhere so far away.
Today is a sad day, I am volunteering at our local food bank, so that means having to slip into some shorts, shirt and shoes. The rest of the week is all mine though so I'll survive.
