I am so close and it seems to be getting harder. I have done a fairly good job of cleaning out the closet. I absolutely got rid of shoes, 12 pairs to go to Working Wardrobes, and several that are too casual and will end up in the Goodwill pile.
I have several beautiful suits in the spare room on hangers and I am still deciding about some tops - whether I should keep them just in case, or have them go to WW along with the suits. I cleared out my sweater bags, have cleaned house in that department and there are beautiful cashmere's along with a couple of gorgeous Eileen Fisher sweater type jackets. I don't think I am going to miss them a bit. I didn't even wear them last winter in WA State in the snow, what makes me think I will wear them in Southern CA in the heat? A benefit to the whole project is I can actually move the clothes around now, I can see what I have and what holes I have in my wardrobe. I am not done. Not by any stretch of the imagination. I still have another whole row of tops to work through.
I need to pull out my old resource manual: Clear Your Clutter with Feng Shui, by Karen Kingston. It is an amazing book about how to clean out the clutter and feel better overall.
I definitely need some inspiration. 52 days, it seems like forever.
Love,

Susan,
ReplyDeleteI have just finished reading all of your posts since last October, and I am inspired! I find myself wanting to do the same thing, but I really don't think I could. For a month or two, yes... but a whole year? Wow!
You are so close. Keep going, you can do it! Very soon it will be the end of October and we will be in Palm Springs, celebrating your last few days of victory!
Thanks for the encouragement, Julie. Now that I am down to the wire, I need all I can get. You know of course, I won't be able to shop while in PSP. My first day is November 1st, Monday and all three of you will be gone!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I am glad you like your Gap Jeans. I love mine. I have worn their jeans for quite a few years and I really love their new 1968 (or whatever year it is) jeans. They fit great!
Love,
S
