I have what
some people would call a
fetish...others an
addiction. I
LOVE jackets. No matter what
time of year it is, I'll buy a
jacket.
In fact, I normally buy
more during the
summer than the
winter since they are always on
sale! I have bought so many
jackets over the
years that I have had to
take over one of the hallway closets just to store them. So what happens when closet
#2 gets too full for my
latest purchase
? Now why do I feel the
need to purchase so
many jackets in order to prepare myself for a
season that only lasts for a couple months out of the year
? I have
no idea. BUT, after recently becoming a member of
GWBTMJA (
Girls Who Buy Too Many Jackets Anonymous), I have began the
long journey of overcoming my
addiction.
Step
#1- Admitting
I have a
problem.
Step
#2- It's time to let go of the
past and start cleaning out my closet...
literally.
Here is a before and after. I guess the picture doesn't do much justice... because I got rid of
18 of my
33 jackets!... I told you I have a
problem...

I felt like a
new woman after I sorted through
all of that. haha And it even gave me
space in my
2nd closet for all my skirts/dresses! So why stop there
? Closet
#1 has been pretty neglected lately as well....
Before and After
(
Oh
ignore the
Raja Bell poster on the door...
traitor.)
In the
end... I was left with a
giant pile of give-away clothes (which made some aunts/cousins pretty
happy...) and a lot of
empty hangers. Hopefully they'll stay empty for a while.

Kacey, I am so embarrassed. There are situations that are not to be shared with the general public. Now everyone is in on your ONE and ONLY problem! Why must you air your dirty little secrets to everyone??? Some things are just better left "in the closet":)
(Now come over and do Mommy's closet.)
P. S. I LOVE that jacket you bought on Wednesday!
your strength inspires me! i want to go out and get the world by the tail and wrap it around and pull it down and put it in my pocket! i will NOT end up livin in a van down by the river eating government cheese. thank you for your wisdomous montoring. :)
I want them! I love jackets too, and fortunately I actually NEED them now! I got the cutest one for Christmas! Love em!
So cute! Good job! I have a jacket fetish as well. My dad says he disowns me during the summer cause I will totally walk around in a hoodie while its 110 outside!
