Most everyone here has a clothes dryer, so we don't see those too often, and the word is disappearing from our vernacular. I suppose in transferring the term to a human, it would imply that someone wears enough clothes that they could be the drying rack. <br />Happy to hear that your skirt is still being enjoyed!Ann Brodskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08893522256894299340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2990612353550273255.post-349696856255866952015-01-06T09:19:48.409-06:002015-01-06T09:19:48.409-06:00Your amazing industriousness was a primary motivat...Your amazing industriousness was a primary motivator for me to do this, Ruthie!Ann Brodskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08893522256894299340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2990612353550273255.post-34626600023915538622015-01-06T09:19:06.073-06:002015-01-06T09:19:06.073-06:00But you need a variety of coats in Minnesota!

My husband had never heard of it, and he was raised in the southwest, so I thought it might be a regional thing. I'm going to try your mother's trick.

Here in Australia we generally hang our clothes outside to dry. In winter it can take a while so you bring them inside and dry them on the clotheshorse - I just googled it and got pictures of what i am referring to. And to change the subject, today I have on a skirt that I made about 10 years ago that had recently gone into the charity bag but I rescued at the last moment.

Through the last two "purges" I think I got rid of like 3 things each time. Womp womp. <br /><br />Maybe I need to take the "out of sight, out of mind" approach to clear up some space. <br /><br />I have two closets. Ok 3 kinda. No one uses entry way closet but me and I keep coats and jackets there and there are easily a dozen. <br /><br />Sheesh.

I purged some recently and will go through summery things when the weather warms up. I'm sure there are still things I could get rid of but I'm not ready to part with them yet. My mom told me about a trick to see what you're wearing. Put all your hangers backwards in your closet and when you wear the garment turn the hanger around. Interesting thought, huh? Your closet looks great!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16357944348284103102noreply@blogger.com
