Cleaning the Closets

So this morning I decided to go through some clothes I haven't worn for a while. Well, more than a while. Years. Why have I held on to some of these clothes? Who knows.

My mission today was to determine whether clothes needed: a) tossed because they are falling apart; b) given to charity, or c) kept.

There were a few things for pile A. Including a pair of boxer shorts from college. Yes, back then there was a trend to wear boxer shorts as shorts. Don't ask why. I don't know.

There were a few things for pile B. If they are still in good shape, I love knowing that someone else can use them.

And there were a few things for pile C. And the most exciting thing about that? I haven't been able to wear these for since pre-babies. That, my friends, is a GREAT feeling. I haven't worn shorts in public for at least four years. After Ladybug was born, I started wearing capri pants. I actually found a few cute ones.

But now that I've lost 20 lbs, I feel a little more confident in wearing shorts outside the house. I found a few pair in the drawer that I haven't tried on recently. And they fit!! Can I tell you how exciting that is to me? It's like going on a shopping spree without spending any money!

I still have a few more drawers to go through. I wonder what I'll find.
