Too Stuffed

Not talking about me squeezing into my pants!

I'm talking about my closets today.  

Downsize! Organize!

Okay, Monty Hall,  what's behind Door #1

Do you have things blocking your closet?  I do

Move over, you're crowding me!

E-gads, what a mess!

I was here first!

Yesterday I pulled everything out of this closet (everything!) and started from scratch.  Please note: this is only one closet of many....I'm not superwoman!!!

just in case of spiders, grab the broom and sweep out the shoes!

It's raining shoes!!!

What a mess

I tried on clothes and I tried on shoes.  If I didn't like the way they fit or felt, out they went....well, except for the Pretty Woman Brown Polka Dot Dress I'm hoping to get back in to!  That one stays.  She is my motivation piece.

 

Whew! What a morning!  So my Breakfast of Champions was a morning smoothie consisting of blueberries, vanilla shake mix, fat free milk and ice.  WW SP= 6

mmmmmmmmm

Next I checked out the purses, I mean how many purses does one Strawberry need?

 

I love the quirky purses!  And guess what?  I found the purse I have been looking for for well over a year!  It was hiding in another purse!

My Precious

I pooped out after the purse purge.  I brought in 2 Rubbermaid tubs and divided the purses between winter and summer. 

After lunch which consisted of Calabaza con pollo again and crackers (WW SP= 10), I tackled the built-ins.  I have 4 built-in drawers.  They aren't packed to the gills like my closet, but they did need a little culling and organizing.  Boom! Done.

Why mess with a good thing?

Mid-day snack:  fresh from my f-i-l's tree to my freezer mangoes.

I want a mango tree! Moana whines

In the late afternoon, Boy and I left to run some errands and quite frankly I wasn't in the mood to think about or even cook anything.  Chicken, other than Calabaza con Pollo, sounded terrific.

The dinner of a busy, pooped out Strawberry: Kentucky Fried Chicken grilled chicken and a biscuit (I gave "Wisdom Toothless" my mashed potatoes and gravy). 

I was so hungry I forgot to take a picture (you probably couldn't have seen it anyway!). Darn if KFC didn't give me the smallest chicken breast in the lot.  Unfortunately  I was still hungry after eating dinner.  :(

Snack 6 pretzel rods.

WW SP=8

So here's the good news.  Not only is my closet clean, but I found clothes I thought were too small but actually fit now.  Score!

And just so Wisdom Toothless Boy doesn't feel all alone this Christmas season, Master College Girl is now Tonsil-Less.

Not to be outdone by her brother! #allmychildrenaresedated

The new year is upon us, Grainiacs.  Do you have your motto/goal/dream/wish for this coming year?  

Pick a letter!
