Showering is a big pain in the butt for me regardless of mood. As an older person I don't need to shower every day, otherwise my skin dries out and gets itchy. But even though I love feeling clean, finding the motivation to shower more than twice a week is tough and I just don't. Between showers I keep up on my deodorant and I'm not above doing a PTA bath when needed. I don't want to stink.
