Got my closet back!

I have a quest to get the clutter out of my house and so far I've got my closet done. This doesn't look like a big task but it sure was! I didn't think to take a before picture and perhaps because it was embarrassingly bad. The closet was chest high full of stuff and became a chore to get, let alone find, what I needed. If you remember, this is a major downsize closet for me considering I previously had a walk-in 8ft x 13ft closet and now a 5ft x 6ft. Yeap, lots of stuff went to D.I.

It sure feels good going into my closet now. Only a couple more thousand square feet to go!

Too Honest, It Hurt A Little

So here's the story. This past Sunday in Relief Society I sat beside a friend. I commented on her hair and she said, "Thanks. New year, new hair." She then looked at me and touching my hair, she said, "Jinky, you need a make-over!" Looking closely at my face, she continued, "... and your eyebrow ... D----- (our friend to my right), she needs a make-over ...". So I'm thinking, not too close. I've got a mustache, ... my finger/toe nails too --yuck! Don't even look at my legs. I haven't shaved in a long time! Just glad it doesn't grow as fast as it used to! My tired face, my Michelin belly, etc. All my physical insecurities came to my mind. Thanks a lot! Sure glad when the class started and the conversation had to end.

She wasn't saying those things to be mean. I really do need a make-over! An overhaul even!! I just really haven't made time for myself. Too busy with the kids and goofing off here, blogging! I suppose I have to put it in my New Years resolution list. That's another thing too. I didn't make one! I better hurry 'cause my BIG 4-0 is around the corner and it'd be nice to look decent by then! Wish me success.
