Yesterday I was working around the back yard and was nude. I did some minor things then pondered attacking a major task of disassembling some complicated cabinets that we are going to discard. I know most of us will hesitate to be naked when it is too cold but yesterday it was just too hot. We have had a few days of 103 deg f. weather and from noon til dusk it is not at all comfortable. I know I could have moved the job in to the garage but it was 101 deg f. there. I decided instead to just put off the work until a better day comes along.
Like many others here, I do all my decorating, DIY (not that I do much!) and gardening naked, and obviously cooking etc. as I am always nude when at home. I dress to work in the front garden (although I have nipped out quickly to water a plant or something without dressing a few times). In the past, I have worked naked in the office - in the evening or at the weekend when no-one else was there. Just over 20m years ago I did my degree and masters as a mature (ho ho!) student and did all my coursework nude at home. I once had a job interview naked - but it was a telephone interview!
A couple of years ago I decorated our lounge. It was in the summer and I had to remove multiple layers of old wallpaper and ceiling paper put up by the previous occupants, one or two of which had been painted as well. Using a steamer was a big help but it was a tough job and a hot one! I did most of that naked and it was much more pleasant than wearing clothes.
Edit: I should say that unlike some other ANW-ers, I don't get to be naked around the house very much as it's frowned upon, but in this case I could just shut the door and get on with the job 😃

Definitely a good idea to use a wallpaper steamer naked. Day 12 of Steve's birthday blog for my 50th has me doing this in our home https://anaturistworld.com/member-blog/a-naturist-family-50-years-50-memories and I would not have wanted to do it any other way. It is a nasty job and much nicer naked.
