Monday Teeny Poll
By GlindaNot one single person believed Mel B’s claim of having “relations” with her husband five times a day, thus keeping her in tip-top physical condition. We’re on to you, Mel. Now, if she had said they argued five times a day about whose turn it was to put the dishes away, nary an eyelash would have been batted. Because we all know it’s the bickering that keeps a marriage alive, not the sex.
Today I was finally putting away some of my clothes from our recent move (January, that counts as recent, right?) and I happened upon a much beloved sweatshirt, circa Express, 1991. I still wear it, but make no mistake that I am the same weight I was twenty years ago. Some miracle has occurred that the sweatshirt keeps expanding right along with me.

Wear or have in the closet? I have all sorts of thin clothes waiting for me to fit into them again. Plus I have things that I might need someday, like a long velvet skirt that would be perfect for a Christmas party that I got for $5 at the Junior League Thrift Shop in Memphis. I have nothing to wear with it and I have not been invited to a Christmas party since I bought it, but if I am, I will be ready.

I’m going to say wear, not just in the closet.

I still wear the t-shirt I got in 1988 at a soccer game played at a local high school to break the Guinness record for the longest continuous soccer game. I was 4 years old. The shirt was an adult medium which was of course gigantic at the time but now it fits quite well. Unfortunately it’s a hideous shade of yellow that when placed upon my pasty whiteness does me no favors. But I love it anyway.

However, I am proud to say that I still carry and use daily a credit card holder, checkbook cover and business card holder made by Louis Vuitton and purchased over 33 years ago when I worked at Saks. Now that’s durability!

@Casablanca- That’s awesome, I would have kept it too, even if it didn’t fit!
