I shouldnt be blogging about this

I'm quite embarrased to reveal the patheticness of what our closet had become.
But to give you an image of what I encountered this weekend
I thought it necessary to include these wretched pictures.
I decided that we had WAY too many clothes, and the closet literally looked like it had exploded. Clothes everywhere. As you can see, the shelf above was packed to the ceiling and those shelves extend back intot he closet another 2.5 feet on both sides (so you're not seeing it all). The floor was so packed with clothes that had fallen off the shelf, and that we had simply thrown down that we couldnt physically shut the doors anymore. WOW, all I could think of was, "How am I gonna tackle this?

So yeah... This is our bedroom, and the clothes you see here, came out of the over flowing closet. But just when you think this is outrageous, let me tell you that these were only MY CLOTHES. I had to actually throw all Rick's stuff in Brianna's old room, so that I could try and make sense to it all. (At this point I was thinking, "What have I gotten myself into?)
***
I ended up with 6 of the huge storage boxes plum full of clothes, and again... these are only my clothes, I havent even tackled Ricks mess yet.

Today I finished it up. We can now close the doors to our closet, we can see the floor, we have ample space and It's all stuff that we are wearing now. Makes sense to me :)

So yeah I really felt like I got alot accomplished this weekend, the closet was a huge thorn in my side. I can cross that one off my list of things to do. YIP YIP
