365 Days of de-cluttering: Day 5

Today was hard. I was going out to run some errands so thought I would go by and take the comforter that I had decided to donate but I wanted to put some other things with it. Since I was going to take it to the Women's shelter I wanted to take some clothes as well. Well, now I remember why all those clothes are still in my closet. Most are some of my Mother's work clothes, which means they are quite old but in very good condition. They don't really have much sentimental value but they are all pretty. I don't work so don't really have much opportunity to wear them but I still hate to get rid of them. I thought it would be easy, but it's not. I picked out 2 blouses that I know I will never wear and a knitted skirt and top that I've worn once but not in a looonnng time. Then it turns out the women's shelter isn't open on Friday so they ended up at Goodwill. I wasn't bringing them back home.

My current plan now is to go through those clothes and pick out 2 outfits that fit and donate the rest or cut them up for a quilt, but that will count for another day.
