There is a kind of planning in being under no restraint, or perhaps more properly a gratification of indolence, for instance I can sit down to work in the most perfect negligee in regard to dress or any thing else, nobody knows, & nobody cares.
The children too can take comfort in pouring down to my carpet, as they have just done the little wagon full of dirty playthings of every sort then Lucy Jane & Charlie racing through the rooms with any quantity of mud on their feet drawing the baby about. Such little things would be an annoyance to you somewhat as "it would be to me to sit prink'd up ready to receive and chat in words without meaning with hollow hearted 'Callers,,
