We're all familiar with the cotton, loose and baggy boxer shorts that men wear. I never thought about them much until recently and now I love them. They're my new sleeping shorts.

My brother-in-law bought them a few years ago when he had to wear a catheter for a month prior to surgery. My dear SIL found 6 brand new ones when she did a drawer clean out last month and was going to ditch them but I happened to be there and took them for myself.

They were bright and funky ones with designs on them and were cute, the Tasmanian Devil ones being my favorite. I immediately thought of using them with an oversized t-shirt for sleeping in on those hot humid nights when everything feels clammy. They're wonderful, especially because there aren't pj legs or nightie hems that ride up and twist around on me during the night. My legs are free and cool.

I did sew closed the front fly opening but I guess you don't have to.

I'm thinking that the next time I'm home with nobody around to see me and I'm painting, cleaning the floor on my hands and knees or scrubbing down the shower walls, I might take to wearing my new comfortable baggy shorts while I'm doing the job.

My husband has several "banded collar" shirts that he no longer wears. They are still in good shape and I loved the style.

However, they are way too big for me to wear w/jeans or anything else.

If you have kids and you know their winter pajamas won't fit them next season, cut them down for the spring/summer. Cut the pants into shorts and the shirt into short sleeves or even tanks.

With the cost of clothes, I feel it is best to scrimp first on the clothes no one sees you in. This excludes your spouse, of course, who will only care that you're soft and warm!

When your night gown wears out at the top, but the bottom is still OK, cut the top off, and replace it with a T-shirt. Cut the hem off the T-shirt. Put a long zipper in front to keep from pulling it over your head.
