If you don’t hear from me for a few days, please send search and rescue…because in all likelihood I am lost in my closet. Today is the day.  I’m going in.  Let me paint the picture, my clothes seem to multiply if given the space.  Like one of those towels that you add water to and they expand…in my life, if you add space to my clothes, I swear they multiply accordingly.  I have a “chia pet closet.” So, today I’m going in. Here’s my plan.

• For the clothes, Peter’s lesson of does it fit, does it look good, does it get you compliments…or does it hold significant memory enough to keep.  I’m going in with those lessons on a post-it note so I don’t lose focus.
• For the stored items, do they belong in the space and can I find them if I need them?
• For the space, find the balance and respect to make me love my closet again…and for my closet to give back to me what I deserve – a functional space, not a hiding place or a catch-all space.

I am sure there are other things that may come up along the way…but these are the pieces I’m trying to keep in sight.  Wish me luck.  I’m going to need it!
