We have a saying here in Texas,
"If the clothes don't fit chunk em." That's just what I've been doing today. This morning I got up with the idea of cleaning out some closet space and as we all know, once you get started, you see articles of clothing that you don't want to throw away. That was the case with me....so I just had to try a couple of on......only they didn't fit.
I don't know who washed them in very hot water and made them shrink......I can't imagine who would be so cruel.....but I couldn't fit into most of them. Boy was I upset....so out came the very large trash bag (the 39 gallon one) and I began to "chunk" things in. I chunked several of my favorite blazers, a wonderful pant suit, several skirts (stupid things wouldn't even zip and I sucked in my tummy until it hurt). I chunked alot of my favorite blouses from my teaching days and a bunch of high heels that if I were to wear them now, I'd break my neck. I chunked sweaters, scarves and a coat or two....it was terrible but someone at the Goodwill store will be very happy this season.......
Tomorrow, I'll start on the next closet, surely there's something in there I'll be able to fit into.....cross your fingers, everyone.
