Last year my wife and I spent the weekend going through the entire house. I ended up taking two car loads of bags of clothes, knick-knacks, etc down to Goodwill. At least one full black bag was from Pat's collection. <br />I remember musing at the time about whether the next owner of Pat's clothes would know, or even wonder, if these items came from a guy's closet. Then I flipped the thought around and pondered the next female owner of my Pat items.<br />So much of being CD plays out in the mind's eye. I smile even now as I relive the irony of the situation.<br />Regards,Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3383236105308499589.post-45977175617366696942010-10-10T13:04:06.093-04:002010-10-10T13:04:06.093-04:00Isn't it "fun" just have a few hours...Isn't it "fun" just have a few hours to just "be girly" looking, checking, and trying on, alone with no cares of the day!<br />I've bought a LOT of stuff at EBAY, problem is sizes suck. An xl from england is a american 14, I need 18 20. So I've learn check size better and if item is xl check measurements(in cm or inch) to be sure. I haven't had as good of success at thrift shops as some put all sizes together. I guess, until we go "full time" we really need to limit oursleves to a few dresses<br />(yeah! like that going happen!) but we can sure try!karen goodgiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05322752675339875643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3383236105308499589.post-75261641054057626262010-10-10T09:12:48.712-04:002010-10-10T09:12:48.712-04:00I loved the encouraging post about cleaning out th...I loved the encouraging post about cleaning out the closet. I'm a bit of a pack rat for the opposite reason as you. My mom threw almost EVERYTHING out. (And I'm not just talking clothes) She kept a few sentimental things and has more now... but when I was young and in school, nothing of mine was "sacred." I struggle with this subject frequently and it's nice to know other people have the same problem. <br />My closet has been filled with clothes that I love but no longer fit for far too long. I went through the first part of the summer and got two large bags ready for goodwill (and by big bags, I mean of the garbage variety). One left, one is still hanging out for no reason. I think I'll take it by tomorrow. I am trying to take the advise I give to Penny "If it fits and you love it and it makes you feel good to wear it, keep it. If not, don't."A.
