Spring Cleaning!

Ok, so its only February, and Mr. Groundhog said 6 more weeks of winter, but around here its been beautiful and spring-like, so *rasberries*

I had today off for President's day, and decided I wanted to do a little shopping. As I've been losing weight (see below for healthy snacks!) some of my clothes aren't fitting as well as they used to, plus not long ago I had bought some new clothes because I was growing OUT of my old ones.

But I also knew that my dresser and closet were busting full of stuf. So what's a girl to do?

CLOSET CLEANING TIME!!!

I wish I'd gotten a good Before picture, but this is after only about 5 minutes of tugging things out. I had so much stuff piled up that I forgot what was down there, and found my bathrobe in the process!

Kitty says "Um, that looks like more fun that I want to have - you go on without me" he napped.



This is after about an hour of work - Eventually I just pulled everything out into a big pile in the middle of the room, so the inside of the closet was 100% empty except for clothes hanging up.


And the result?


Clothes to go to Goodwill.
Oh, and see that disposable camera? I think that's from San Diego Con 2006. Yeah. I'll be going to CVS shortly!

My awesome boots have a home of their own

I can see the floor!
YAY!

Good for you...cleaning out that closet.

I periodically go through the entire house and toss stuff. It drives my hubby crazy but I have this minor, nutty, quirk that I can't stand clutter. It's on those little freakouts that this occurs. Anyway, I've noticed that I always find little goodies that I've forgotten on these nutty days. It's almost a treasure hunt for me now. Your camera is one of those little treasures - hope there's something good on there!

Hey, does that ever happen to you on your winter coats? I stick my hand in the pocket for the first time each season and pull out all kinds of stuff. Heck, 2 years running I've found $20!
