It had gotten to the point where I could not find anything, so it was in dire need of sorting.  These are the fruits of our labor.<\/p>\n<p>It doesn&#8217;t look like much, but this is a huge improvement from the condition that the closet was in prior to the reorganization.  Trust me.<\/p>\n<p>Brian, who is quite anal, helped me group the clothes into specific sections for dresses (separating dressy from casual), suits, pants, capris, shirts, work blouses (separating long-sleeved ones from short-sleeved ones), everyday casual tops, camisoles, jackets and blazers, polo shirts, work logo shirts etc.  He even grouped similarly-colored articles of clothing in each section.  This made me realize that I have over a dozen black work blouses.  That&#8217;s not counting the long-sleeved ones!<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m actually rather boring and wear mostly whites and blacks and browns.  I really need to inject more color into my wardrobe not be so conservative in my clothing choices.  Brian says I dress like I&#8217;m 50. (I don&#8217;t think I really started dressing this way until about four or five years ago when I started getting fat.)  Hopefully, I can lose some more weight.  Maybe we can change that as I start to feel better about myself and my personal appearance.<\/p>\n<p>P.S. Since we missed Virginia Williams last Thursday at The Shamrock, we are going to try to catch her on <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/#!\/event.php?eid=108277309230115&#038;ref=ts\" >Tuesday at Kelly&#8217;s Irish Pub<\/a>.  We&#8217;re going to be out and about anyway (we have a late night mystery shop that evening) and figured we could hit Kelly&#8217;s before heading home.  I believe there isn&#8217;t a cover charge on this night.  The music starts at 9 PM.  See you all there!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brian and I missed seeing Virginia Williams perform at The Shamrock on Thursday night because we were stuck at home reorganizing my closet.
