Well, we were supposed to run a whole slew of shopping errands today, but the weather has caused a change in plans. It’s a bit wet out for being outside. I was out for a whole two minutes to sprint down to the mailbox and back and I got drenched. Made me realize that I need to wash my raincoat because the water is no longer beading up on the Gore-Tex shell. I think that washing is supposed to help renew the water repellency. I’ll probably ask someone in Fabrics when I’m at work on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Coincidentally, today’s entry in my “Simple Abundance” book is about cleaning out your closet. I’ve been contemplating this for a while and what better time to do it than a junky, rainy day? Everything that’s too old and worn, doesn’t fit or isn’t something I really like or would want to wear – goes. I have two piles, one for trash and one for donations. Fortunately, the donation pile is significantly larger than the trash pile. Most of my clothes are in good shape, I just don’t like a lot of them. And I have A LOT of turtleneck and long sleeve shirts on which the sleeves don’t actually manage to make it to my wrists. Plus, a lot of old t-shirts and baggy sweaters and so it goes…<\/p>\n
I figure that this is good time to clean out, since we’re going shopping tomorrow. I’m ready to start adding new clothes to my wardrobe that fit a little more with my internal image. Time for a change!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
