I gave TONS of stuff away to a group having a yard sale!

There was a lot already accumulated and sitting in the shop loft.  I hauled it all down this morning- got my exercise there!

I also went through my closets and gave away lots there too!  I have been getting rid of things for the last few years and mostly had favorite stuff left.  But, with many memories, I was brutal in my purging.  The favorite green suit with boxy jacket that I have been told is TOTALLY out of fashion.   The black skirt that is 20 years old but that I really liked.  Couldn’t get in it anymore.  Some nice stuff that I bought with MY OWN MONEY.  Snivel.  Parting is hard to do.  Reality is that I can’t fit in most of them anymore- darn kids!  And that they are not in the current fashion trends.  Sigh.

I even turned down some offered hand me downs the other day.  Ouch.  I am such a mooch, I love hand me downs.

But I plan on filling the nearly empty suit case with clothes- new, not dated clothes that fit while on my trip.  Will wonders never cease.
