You know...I am so glad I happened across your blog. You know half my small living room is cluttered with bags of clothes and shoes and stuff from my cleaning my room.....I'm going "French"! I am down to a small closet and dresser and I love it. I only wore about 30% of the stuff anyway and this is so much easier to maintain. <BR/><BR/>I am also resolved to stay out of the discount stores. When the clothes are marked down so low, I buy more and find I don't like them after a while. Bad impulse urges in TJ Maxx. <BR/><BR/>Thanks again for the listing for Beacon's closet, I had been giving my stuff away. I'll be headed over there tomorrow.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2795420044930522716.post-24457353585257421432009-01-08T10:19:00.000-05:002009-01-08T10:19:00.000-05:00@Melissa L. - I didn't stick around for the evalua...@Melissa L. - I didn't stick around for the evaluation because I knew I wouldn't be able to handle their "critiques" of my fashions!!
