Career Milestone

Well, I have to share with you all something amazing that has happened in my career over the last few days. Tadd let me clean out his closet! I know this doesn't seem like a big deal to you all, but to me IT'S HUGE! It is hard to have a career with a very supportive husband, who tells you how fabulous you are, and talented, and great at what you do, but won't listen to a word you say. It makes all of those words seem like they mean nothing if he doesn't trust me. And not that he's a bad dresser...he's not at all. But he his a hoarder, and he had some stuff that needed to be cleaned out. I convinced him of this when I went to get a belt off our top shelf in our closet, and a pile of his clothes fell on my head. So we got rid of: one garbage bag stuffed to the rim for Goodwill, another garbage bag of suits, dress shirts, ties, etc. for consignment, and a smaller bag of stuff to sell at Plato's Closet. Not to shabby! I'm so proud of him! And we both feel better walking into that tiny closet without worrying if we will come out alive!

this comment has nothing to do with your post, but i was thinking that you should do a "bathing suit" post, since we are so close to that dreaded season. and, please, don't do what the magazines do and give you the option of either big boobs, big hips/thighs, OR a big butt!! How 'bout an "all of the above" category?!! and, you don't have to call that figure curvy....they're called rolls, not curves! :) Am I bitter?? Maybe just a little since this is the second post partum summer in a row!

I agree. A bathing suit post would be great. And what about commenting on inappropriate bathing suits...like old men and speedos?? Speedos are back too...blah. Everyone is wearing them for triathlons...scary stuff.

I know you are proud to have cleaned out so much stuff! That says a lot that your hubby would let you take over his closet. Less is more- I am trying to stop hoarding myself!

It's pretty funny when Gavin brags about wearing a T-shirt from when he was 15!
