So this
morning I’m “changing out” my closet. Something I never did until fifteen years
ago—when we built our country casa. We knew we wanted our closets to have lots
of storage—shelves, cubbies. Double racks—so we could keep Fall/Winter clothes
easily accessible. Then, like our Fancy Friends, we'd move our Spring/Summer frocks down to the lower racks,
once we felt confident Spring was, in fact, here to stay. Today I feel that confidence
and it’s time to do…
drum roll…
The Switch!
It’s not
a job I love. I truly need to purge like I’ve never purged before. I’m at a
too-fluffy-ish weight, at this point, in my old age. I don’t like it. However, I
find I’m not committed enough to give up my M&Ms, Coke
Zeros, and cupcakes! Still, I have scads of jeans/tops/clothes of various sizes. I must, must, MUST get rid of some/several/lots. Immediately. Period.
I was
also just thinking that you may have wondered where in the heck TLC is! Well,
she’s in the midst of A Big Change
that’s happening in her—and her family’s—life. They’ve sold their home and are
about to be moving into a new one. (New to them!) It’ll be in a different
town—but close by. They’ve got a couple of months to get things organized and
packed. Since it’s also near the end of Little Leighton’s pre-school year, life
will be more hectic than it’s ever been for The Four of Them
(counting Henry—their dog!). I intend to do my best to force, I meant ask, TLC to contribute
a post now and then. She WILL be
back. Trust me on this...
(FYI: TLC is
someone who abhors change. "Spontaneous" is not a word I'd ever use to describe her. I encourage us all to be tres understanding. I
myself intend to coddle and comfort her through the stress. Because let's be honest:
Her stress becomes moi stress. And vice versa. My Sweet Hubby is doing so much better..I feel up to TLC's Moving Challenge. Absolutely. No doubts. No fears.)
First,
however, my closet calls…
Y’all
have a Marvelous Monday, PLEASE,
and Wonderful Week—wherever in the World Y’all are…
