- My 87 items
The Final Count
Today I went through my two drawers, two wardrobe shelves, three wardrobe drawers and the rail. I discovered that out I have around one-hundred-and-twenty tops (not including yesterday’s 26 favourites). This includes ponchos/baggy t-shirts/’covers’, strap tops and work/interview/going out tops.
Well, not anymore I don’t. Forty-nine of those are in bags for swish swap/charities.
I’ve almost halved my clothing collection. I have about ten tops in the “maybe” pile, which I may get rid of come Yule/ next Summer. I found three more “I love” tops and added them to yesterday’s 26, and I released ten skirts, a pair of jeans, a bag, five hoodies I’ve not worn in years, 5 smart shirts, a ‘cover’, six items of nightwear, 2 hats, a belt and six dresses.
Overall (minus trousers as I’ve yet to go through that drawer), I’m releasing 87 items for others to love and enjoy. However, I still have sixty-seven tops, nine hoodies, nine shirts, three covers, twelve skirts and 8 dresses. –sigh- I guess I’ll have to review at Yule. 🙂
Universe, I release these items, so others may be blessed; in the hopes that I can welcome into my life more friendships, more loyalty and trust and more experiences with Spirit.
- My Suitcase
I’ve also packed my suitcase (which was yesterday’s chore), so I’ve just got to fill the final two-three boxes and I’m all packed. I kind of thought by now I’d know what to pack but a year on, I’m still kind of lost. Never mind, I’ll survive as I did last time.
Enjoy your week everyone!

Simple Wings 
I’m a notorious clothes-horse myself. Just ask my wife when she berates me again for wearing the jacket I’ve had for about 10 years now. it has sleeves, and a zipper still, but is so threadbare and ripped along every seam it’s held together by willpowr alone. Of course, I have lesser-worn things too, but just can not seem to pass them on. 🙂 Kudos for your efforts. I’m enjoying seeing the results of The Great Cleanup you are doing. Someday I might get off my own butt and follow suit. 🙂
