cleaning out our closet

I am a pack rat.
I have all my notebooks from college, 1 million bottles of hair products, I even have month old grocery lists in my purse (you never know when someone will ask you what vegetables you bought in April). Luckily, when I moved out of my parent's house, I was able to leave a lot of junk behind for my sister to deal with. Your welcome, Holly.

Now, on the pack rat scale I am probably about a 7, but my husband is at least a 4. So combined we are about 2 steps away from the TLC show Hoarders. I thought getting married would help me start fresh and become a new woman. A woman who didn't need to keep every card she ever got or articles of clothing from 1999.
I'm working on it.

Trevor and I are going shopping this weekend. we decided that before we go and add more clothes to the madness that is our closet, we needed to weed out all the stuff we don't use. For some reason, this is so hard for me. But I need a little more simplicity in my life and that skirt from Jr. High is the only thing standing in my way. That and my VHS copy of Ever After.
Wish me luck.

  2. Last time I was at your mom's she was using the same comb she did in high school....the apple doesn't fall too far for the tree.
    Good luck.
