4 DAYS AND COUNTING DOWN TO #TRACYWEARSWOOL 100 DAY DRESS CHALLENGE: GETTING READY BY CLOTHES PURGING — CLEARING OUT THE EXCESS CLOTHES IN MY CURRENT WARDROBE!
For those of you who haven’t heard…I have been invited to do a 100-Day Challenge, put on by Wool& — and I am starting on 1/20/21.
Today’s goal:
- COMPLETE inventory of what clothes I have now.
- Clothes purging: get rid of the excess to make way for new wardrobe choices
I started with t-shirts.
This is what I had left… after I got rid of 7 shirts. I felt bad… like I hadn’t accomplished much. So I tossed out (rather put in the donation bag) 17 undershirts. I don’t even know when I last wore one… I kept 2… just because it seemed right.
Next up… pants
This is actually the before photo of the pants. I ended up tossing out 3 pairs of capris, and 2 long pants. And I set aside 4 pairs of long pants that are too small — if they are still too small by March 1st… they will be donated. Oh… and I kept the skirts and shorts.
Moving on to sweaters and sweatshirts.
There are actually more sweaters in the close — but this was just from my bags. And this is a before photo — I ended up keeping 6 of the heavy sweaters, 4 sweatshirts, and 5 of the lighter weight sweaters.
And now the real fun begins… I got my daughter to help via zoom, as I went through part of my closet…..
I FEEL PRETTY GOOD… LIKE I MADE SOME REAL PROGRESS.
AND I ORDERED THESE AWESOME PACKING CUBES SO THAT I CAN ORGANIZE MY CLOTHES BETTER FOR WEEKLY TRAVEL.

day 58 of #tracywearswool: singing in the rain
#tracywearswool and singing in the rain! Which is easy to do in the Pacific Northwest! But really, any reason is a good reason to sing. In 2017, I had spine surgery on my neck. I went in as an alto in a church choir. When I woke up... I sound like a middle-aged,...
day 57 of #tracywearswool: green grow the rushes o
#tracywearswool and songs from our past... I remember this song from childhood. We all seemed to learn it, at they YMCA or scouts, or camp, or someplace like that. So that when you hear the words or the tune... you instantly remember the song... or bits of it. ...
day 56 of #tracywearswool: song sung blue
Song sung blue, everybody knows one. But when you take the blues and make a song, you sing them out again. Song is a wonderful healer. And I thing that everyone is born with the ability to sing. But sometimes it happens, that someone tells us we aren't any good, or...
