So this weekend I took on the daunting task of switching out wardrobes. With the change in weather I thought it would be nice to see some of my favorite types of clothing in my closet. Our house is much too small to accommodate clothing for all seasons in a closet, so we must switch out seasonally and store the out of season clothes in lovely Rubbermaid tubs in the attic. Not my idea of fun having to lug those suckers up and down the attic staircase. But after thinking it through a bit, I didn't even bring down the Spring/Summer clothes from last year. Why bother? I won't be fitting into them anyways.
Luckily I have been able to find some clothes at the local Goodwills, eBay, and some consignment sales at cheap prices. My assistant principal also blessed me with two tubs full of maternity clothing that will come in great use. However, I did splurge and purchase some clothing items from Old Navy online. I received them in the mail the other day and had a fashion show for Mike, my sister, and our friend Brian. I got a thumbs up approval on all of them. It was neat to think about how that extra fabric would soon be filled with my growing belly.
So with all of these maternity clothes that I now have, I decided to put them in the closet rather than lug those tubs down. It's pretty neat to see a closet become quickly filled with clothing that will help see me through the next 5 1/2 months. Oh and I had to go out and purchase new Rubbermaid tubs to stuff my Fall/Winter clothes in because of the lack of empty tubs from a wardrobe switch.
Bring on the Spring and Summer weather. I'm ready for it :)
