Clothes and more clothes

[stevewool]

The other day I brought a couple of pack of these vacuum sealed bags where you can put items in then shrink the bag by taking out all the air with a vacuum, I thought it would be a great idea to try to sort out Emma’s wardrobe,  sorry both her wardrobe’s anyway I’m sure I’m not the only one with great ideas that turn into why have I bothered ideas .

Well it all started well out came her cloths , the winter ones , then the ones that may fit if I lose a little weight  one day AGAIN , then the ones with still the price tags on never been worn , and I’m thinking don’t say a word because it’s going to end up with her lip touching the floor but Steve can’t get his brain into gear before his mouth starts talking , it’s surprising how much you can get done when someone’s not speaking back at you .

Anyway 4 packs has been done and her wardrobe is looking a lot better , she has her bags on show , her shoes on show and she is ok with the new space she has , but now I’m thinking why is so happy when a hour or so she was mad , and it’s finally clicked, she has space to buy more cloths now

I'm just glad mine isn't the only one.  My Lyn gets up two hours before work because she changes her "outfit" at least 3 times before deciding on one she likes.  AND it always looks the same as the one she wore the day before.

She’s supposed to be sorting out her clothes as she knows she’s got to many and once we decide where want to be in the next year or so she can’t take it all with her .

My wife loves a bargain and gets most of her clothes from the dig dig shops.  Purses and handbags, well that is a different story.

Same with AM, I have to encourage her to buy clothes for herself... Shoes, handbags or any sort of "bling" on the other hand...

Yes, I hear all the time, I've got nothing to wear but there are that many clothes here she probably won't know if l threw some out. Then a package from Shopee will arrive to add to the overflowing wardrobe.

With all respect to Manny Pacquiao, Jinkee has raised the bar for the rest of us men for our wives' purses.  I may soon support the counterfeiters.
