...or two. On Tuesdays I work from 11-8, so sometimes I have time in the morning to do a project. That's what I decided to do the other morning. What usually happens is that I look up at the clock 10 minutes before I have to leave, utter the "sh" word, throw everything back where it came from, smear some mascara in the direction of my eyes and stumble out the door. It wasn't so bad yesterday, I actually cleaned out a couple of large drawers, ta-da! One of them was in my dresser, I had pared it down about a year ago and I felt I could part with more of it at this point. That particular one is my pants and nightie drawer. I decided that I really don't need 7 pair of yoga pants (I don't do yoga, but wear them to the gym and on weekends anyway). I kept the best-looking ones and trashed the ones with baggy knees.
The next drawer I was able to pack several things up for the second-hand store. I did find a pair of jeans in there that are a size 8. I have not worn them since 1998 - but you just never know. I gave up that dream and put them in the box with other jeans and a sweater that I couldn't part with until now. While I was strolling down that memory lane, I pitched all of the string bikini and thong panties that had been taking up space as long as the size-8 jeans.
It feels good to purge...sort of.
