Just perfect for a 5 yr. old.<br />I know EXACTLY how you felt when that moving van pulled away. When DD moved to Hilton Head (13 hrs. away) with her new husband, I went into a real funk. <br /><br />I'm glad you girls got to spend some quality time together, even if it was spent cleaning out your closet. I soooo need to do that. Ugh! Dreading it. I always have high hopes of fitting back into some of those outfits. :/<br /><br />Thank you for your sweet birthday wishes!<br />Hugs,<br />Rett<br /><br />p.s.

Boohoo. But it did feel very liberating to have nice orderly closets and lots of room. xoxo<br />P.s. I didn't get rid of any black shoes though.

I took several bags to Abilities Unlimited, but need to take more!<br /><br />I looked back on some of your older posts and realized I missed the one of the reception. I don't know how I missed that one!! Everything was just beautiful! Loved the white pumpkins and glittered initials...beautiful!<br /><br /><br />Yes, I am getting ready for market. I'm leaving Thurs. and will be staying with Sherry until Monday I believe, or whenever they decide to come back I guess...lol. I just go with the flow...I am looking forward to cash and carry and getting more ideas for my Etsy store. I am also planning on ordering more beautiful ribbons! I sure wish you were going...would love to see you again! <br /><br />Have a great day!

What do ya think I did for three weeks straight? <br />I am finally done, have things boxed up for a sale I want to have in a few months and now the re-decorating begins! The satisfaction of being tidy is just amazing. The husband said this morning, "Let's keep it this way." Well, he'd better help out on that end! Guess we are both hoarders... LOL Now, if I could just find a good cleaning lady! <br />Thanks for your visit. I am so behind on everything- visits, reading, e-mails... <br />Hope you get over your little sadness about your daughter moving away.

Good for you for purging and kudos to your daughter for her "rules". I follow the one year rule, too, and that's how I go through my clothes every season. Sadly, my hubby does not.
