Things i need to throw away...

So...now that it is Fall and I am changing my closets from summer to fall and really trying to throw away stuff...they say if you haven't worn it for 2 years, or you can't get into it then out it goes into the trash bag. First goes really old sweatpants that make me look like a small tractor trailer hauling pigs to slaughter...a sweater that I used to love that the moths have loved even more...lots of socks that are tight...do feet grow? and how about all of those pants and blouses that shrunk in the back of the closet because they didn't get any sun...oh yes, clothes need sun or they will shrink...that is my story and i am sticking to it...just ask Tina Turner over there...she definitely kept that outfit in a dark closet for too long!

When the closets are completed I am going to continue... I am going to throw away any and all catalogs...they are killing me with new looks, new trends, and new "must haves" for the season...It seems to me I have just emptied my closet of 3 years ago's looks, trends, and "must haves".

I might as well throw away my muffin tins and pie plates...who am I kidding having those in the house. The last time they saw heat was when I let the kids bring them to the beach to use as building blocks in the sand.

Time to get rid of the US and People magazines...Brad and Jen are done, Ben found a new Jen, and Brad and Angelina found ice cream in Africa...who knew...more importantly, who cares...

I am throwing away the guilt I feel every time one of my kids or my husband begins a sentence with, "You should have...(told me, called me, helped me, woken me...fill in your own should have...)"my answer now is get a grip...I lift my eyes to heaven...and the message gets delivered...

I think now I will throw away saying yes to every invitation...even though I don't want to go...I love my friends and family but from this day forward I will not be at jewelry parties or Southern Home Luncheons...ever...

Wow...let's have a contest...old Halloween costumes...who still has their term papers from college?...every birthday card your kids ever sent you?...buttons, OMG the buttons I have...resentments, jealousies, worries...THROW THEM AWAY...

so what do you think...what would you like to throw out?
