Aprons...to wear or not to wear?

As you can tell from my post,I love being home, doing the "nesting" thing as my Mom calls it.

   I have several aprons that I wear. This is something that is from back in the day for a lot of people. If you look for one in Wal-mart, they have some, but generally they are more so for the grilling out days. My sweet Mom in law has passed on some to me, and I occasionally can find them at Estate Sales. I do wear them often. I can go from one mood to another by changing them out. It puts me in that "place", if I have my school apron on, or my cooking one. I also have a cleaning apron. They are like my uniform.

  Susanah Wesley, mother of John Wesley,Father of the Methodist movement, had a total of 19 children. 10 of them never lived past 2 years of age{.You can read about her here.} She had another reason for her apron, when she needed a break, she would sit down and throw her apron up over her head! Then the children knew they'd better leave Mom alone! I haven't tried this yet...

   I have friends that ask, "Why do you wear that?" Well, if all others reasons fail, I can always use the "it saves my tops from stains and me having to scrub them"...they can relate to that!

Do you wear Aprons? If so, where do you find yours? If you have reasons for not wearing one, what is it?
