You know what they say about 'clearing out' you make room for more...so just think of all the good things that will be coming into your life.

I recently took a lot of clothes to our local women's shelter. So many of these women have to leave with just the clothes on their backs...it made it easier to give up some of my favorite, nicer things that no longer fit...due to no fault of my own...I'm sure they shrank! LOL

One of these days I'm going to go to my storage unit and get rid of a ton of clothes. It's too cold right now. I think it got up to 17 degrees today. Gads.

Jane, my clothes seem to be shrinking too. Darn that dryer.

Anne, when I first started reading your post, I thought you were kidding. Wow, That's scary. Dianne, warning!

Yikes! 17 degrees....we've got to get you to a warmer climate!

Dotsie,
Now that's a good argument to stop doing laundry!

Yeh, hubby's been doing all the laundry lately and he HAS been shrinking all my stretchy jeans! So many of them had stopped fitting me that I was blaming myself for gaining so much weight. But then when I finally weighed myself, I've actually lost weight - and inches around the waist. So the pants SHOULD be fitting. Then I found out he's been putting them in the dryer, not hanging them to dry like I had mentioned to him. Grrrr. Three pairs no longer fit, I only have two left that do. It's irritating, but not enough to make me ask hubby to stop doing the laundry...LOL.

Eagle,

That's bitter-sweet! Unfortunately, that's not my problem! No Hubby...just Tubby! LOL

Too funny, Jane!

I took that warning VERY seriously! Permanant damage is not an option for The Queen of Shoes! I was going through my shoes and I really don't have as many pointed toe shoes as I thought I did. Good news.

I told the hub he isn't allowed to do my laundry anymore. He puts my clothes in with towels and hot water. I appreciate that he was trying to help but he was ruining things.

Well now....I've been away from the forums a few days and what do I find when I return? Dianne is shoeless and Eagle is nakked? What the heck are you broads doing?

Now the way I see it Dianne, how the heck are you going to kick Mr. Dianne if you don't have any more pointed-toe shoes?

And Eagle, get some clothes on hun....

The next time you all start giving away expensive clothes and shoes, (especially those made by people I can't pronounce), how's bout checking with da Queen first, k? I'm designer shoelss (sad, isn't it?) and clotheless (is that a word?).

The things I have to 'splain around this joint....

JJ, I thought you meant Eagle had a new photo without any clothes on in the forums. I had to quick scroll up to check. Phew, you made me per-spire girl!
