When you live in a small space, seasons make it a time for switching, that is in your closet. Not so much woolies, but rain gear, long-sleeved T-shirt, and you know the rest, long pants. Oh yes, don’t forget the toe-socks for your flip flops, and one pair of regular socks for rain boots. This last few days, I have been working on my clothes. The love of my life said, “Whatever!!” I have started living by “His” Mother’s philosophy, “If you have not worn it in six months, get rid of it!” So far, it is working very well for Second Going. RR said “Whatever!!” So, that means to me, I am going to clean out this closet and T-shirt drawer when he is not here. Don’t tell him – LOL.
For me, it is very hard to get rid of some things that at one time I could fit into. Then, there are the items I wore on vacation or a special occasion. Lord knows, these types of items have been in storage since we rented said place. Grandgirl would not be proud of me to say the least.
RR keeps trying to remind me, “remember, next week will be hot, or at best, warmer.” And darn it, he is correct. So then I take out a few of those short sleeved T-shirts that are packed away. I can’t take anything out of the box for Second Going because I have already made one trip there this week. At best, I am weak, because if it don’t make that trip quickly, I’ll dig through the bags.
So, who is the stronger in your family? Have you started missing items that you know you did not get rid of? As RR says, “Whatever!” We will get over it, maybe…..
Have a great week, Life is Short, be kind to one another.
