Clean out my closet.

I went through the closet ruthlessly .. most of the clothes that don’t fit me or hat i never wear are GONE. I still have a few drawers and shelves to do, then bags, shoes and accessories.

It feels great and I don’t miss the gone clothes at all, in fact, it’s a joy to open the hanging wardrobe and see clearly what is up there to wear. I have much less clothes but to be honest those were the only clothes I was wearing anyway! Incredibly freeing so I’m keeping on with this and hope to be done by month end! Whee!

I’ve gone through everything. All the stuff that doesn’t fit is either given away – or, if it’s something I really love – is on reprieve till March 31st 2009 .. by which date I hope to try them on again and see if they fit. If they do, they can stay, but if not they’re out.

Hope I can stick to this rule.

I keep tidying things up but like all good clutter, it metastasises .. I have made a start. Oh God! I just noticed that it says “this goal takes 2 years to complete”!! Are you serious???? I was hoping it would take like 2 days .. that’s why I added it cos it is a little sad to look at my list and see that I haven’t done anything yet.

I shall get back to work on it NOW. I can’t bear the thought that my closet could be like this for TWO YEARS. Good grief.

I have just one question. About the ‘if it’s not worn in one year throw it out’ rule. WHAT IF IT COMES BACK INTO FASHION THE YEAR AFTER??
