The “Tidier-In-Chief” has become a verb.

DAMN that would look good on me if it fit. Keeping.

Cute! I totally forgot about this! Joy!

Oh Hell naw. What was I thinking?

Oy, this was expensive. But I haven’t worn it in 12 years. Later.

Oh man, but my sister gave me this.

Ugh. No.

What was I thinking, ordering clothes from Groupon?

WTF am I gonna do with all these hangers?

Dang I wear a lot of black.

Oh wait, this is from Groupon and I love it.

But his heart was in the right place when he gave me this. I just can’t.

Why do I have two of these?

I’m going to force myself to wear everything I keep.

Oh, I like this. Wait, there’s a hole in it.

My God, I loved this. Thank you for your service. Goodbye.

I could sell this on eBay.

Doesn’t spark joy, but utilitarian. Keeping.

That is fuckin’ CUTE!

I need to wear more red.

This will spark joy, after I lose 20 pounds and it fits me again (repeatedly).

Oh geez, this one still has tags on it. I’ll still never wear it. Bye.

Shit, I need new clothes.

I need a drink. Or a nap. Or both.

I hope the Salvation Army will take all these bags.

Oh my Goodness, look at my beautiful and orderly closet.

<preening>

Thank you, Marie Kondo.
