So today my wife decided to take on the monumental task of reorganizing my closet.

I'm a pack rat when it comes to clothes. I had stuff in my closet from the 80s (yep I could still wear it, but it was so out of fashion I didn't

). It was haphazardly folded, shirts and shorts and jeans all mixed up.... I sort of had it arranged by color but not really. It was based more on what I wore last

Her process; simple....she held up each piece of clothing and asked me if it made me smile. If the answer was yes it stays, if no, it goes. No suits or dress clothes really to speak of... I'm firmly a jeans, tee shirt kind of guy.

What a feeling it is to have things so organized. Now when I look in my closet, I see a wardrobe I want to wear. My job now is to keep it this way.

Last rule, no more jeans. 16 pair are enough and if I do buy more, its a one in - one out policy

Thanks for making me smile honey ... love you to the moon.

Absolutely

should’ve posted the before picture

Bladeshot · 7 September 2020, 05:24 AM

Wow! That’s wonderful and inspirational. Well done!

Side note: I found a suit from high school at my mom and dads last year. Circa 1987. Wool. I put it on and it fit perfectly. And it would have been back in style (my wife says I have no style, so I cannot confirm it actually would have been back in style

).

But, a couple of small moth holes, so it had to go. I was stunned that it fit. So many years later, I did not recall what size I was and had no perspective to present.

Have a great Sunday.

Looking good! Nice work on her part.

My wife does the same for me. I’m grateful she keeps me organized and allows me to use the closet at all lol.

Patton250 · 7 September 2020, 05:36 AM

Well done. Of course if she doesn’t maintain it then it will be right back to the way it was in about five days. LOL

Haha, just saw your post on IG, turn on my computer and first thing I see on TRF is this thread with the same titile.

That looks great, Brian :thumbs up: You've got a fresh start now and it'll be much easier. This is a great way to start the week ahead.

Dan Pierce · 7 September 2020, 05:54 AM

How good is she with garages? I have a challenge for her

Congrats, my friend!

Great when things are organized.

She did an outstanding job in organizing and cleaning that closet up!!!

A great and efficient way to decide to keep or not keep with the smile or no smile!!!

Now you just gotta maintain it looking that way haaaa!!! Maybe an " after " shot in a week or two!!!

Go take the wife out to dinner for a great job!

That’s too funny Grant

mine was flat front pants. I had the double pleat at one point. No way that’s coming back!!

Cru Jones · 7 September 2020, 07:04 AM

I’m the neat one in my couple. Your wife is making me feel bad, Brian, for not doing the same! We’ll see if this feeling will pass, or if I’ll get to organizing things.

You’re a lucky guy. Choose the right spouse and it pays dividends for life!
