Day 146/365 It’s time to go, hand-me-downs


    When we were growing up I wasn’t given many hand-me-downs from my sister—wrong size, wrong color, wrong style, worn out? Now, however she is always giving me bags of clothes and they are never the wrong size, color or style and are never worn out. My sister has excellent taste and as the expression goes, she dresses to the current style. She is also a minimalist so the minute she’s through wearing anything, out it go…to me. 

    Many of the clothes I now wear are from her. However, how many white summer pants can I wear in a season? And how much closet room do I have? So, in keeping with my commitment to simplify my life and to get let go of what I don’t need, I’m bagging pants, shirts, sweaters, and jackets with a sign, ‘Church Rummage Sale’ stapled on front. The bag is on the way to the attic waiting for the fall sale.
