Am gonna attempt to have a big clear out of my clothes today. The thought is scaring me! Needs to be dome though as having trouble getting drawers shut and half the stuff I never wear. Some is about 2 sizes too small yet I insist on myself that one day I will fit into it again! Who am I kidding! Am gonna have to be brutal and just grit my teeth and chuck it!


I love Teddy!

Oh, Natnee been there, I'll fit into it again, but we never do. Its the hardest thing, doing a clothes clear out. I hate it. The top shelves in my wardrobe are full of bags, cant part with them. And cant use them all, but keep buying . i'm mad on bags. When i buy a new one, Hubbys favourite expression is, "You really needed that didn't you", men just dont understand. Were doing a clear out of the garage, its not so bad. But its time to get rid of my bike, not happy about that, But just cant use it anymore. so i'm not a happy bunny. Confused Confused

Big Grin Big Grin Natnee hows the clear out going. Or are you doing what i do, Put something in a bag then hoke it out again, thinking, cant get rid of that. Big Grin Go on girl you can do it. Think how much easier it'll be to pick something out to wear. Just you wait untill you start clearing the shoes, Confused Confused What are we like. Razz

Hooray I have done it! 3 bin bags later and a wardrobe that I can actually slide things along in! Trouble is all the spare hangers that are now just in a pile on my bedroom floor, dunno where to put them. I guess they will get occupied quickly enough!
Yes I have one or two (or more!) bags. They are now all in the drawer under the spare bed. Shoes is another thing....
I think I had better give the bedroom a good clean this afternoon, ie move the bed out and stuff. Need a nice clean room to go with my newly organised drawers and wardrobe!

good on ya girl!!!! i LOVE having a clear out.....sad....well we got sliderobes on our bedroom last september and we had to remove the old fitted bedroom and go through our clothes.....hubby had 5 large black bags of his stuff and I removed all the clothes i have not worn for years and also in smaller sizes that if I ever did fit into them again they would never been in fashion for another 50yrs!!I also went up to the attic and said to my self be honest girl you will never wear it again....i matched up outfits and put them on hangers and took them over to the charity shop who put them straight out on their racks.....they sold very fast......

Haven't got to doing the bedroom yet, just had lunch and now watching last weeks most haunted which I taped, with a cup of coffee. Even washed the pillows this morning, and they are drying nicely out on the line. Mind you it's looking a bit hazy and stormy out there, think it will be a big storm later.

Did you get the storm, Natnee? Where do you live? I wish it would rain here - the garden and allotment really need it.

We got a storm here between 7 and 7.30 so that's freshened things up a bit.


CQ forever!

My lovely clean bedroom is now scattered all over the house! We have started decorating our bedroom today so the house is in turmoil - aaaaahhhhhh. We will be sleeping on our mattress on the living room floor for next few nights. Just can't wait to get it all finished and back to normal already!
