I'm Getting Rid of So Much, But Not My Shoes

I have gotten rid of so many things in my closet. T-shirts that I don’t wear. The ugliest of sweat pants. Most of my ‘work shirts’ because honestly, I’m hoping to not do my office job again and by the time I’m allowed to work most will be out of style. I just kept a few of my favorites. We are not bringing anything broken or on the edge of broken. A few things are being replaced but nothing big. I bought 2 new cookie sheets because the two I have, have been around a loooong time, and look it.

You know what is scary? My shoes. During Covid while I’ve been WFH I have exclusively been wearing 1 pair of converse or flip-flops. Many cute shoes reside in my closet. Flats, heels, wedges, sandals, boots, booties, sneakers…. something for everyone. I’m emotionally attached. I can’t seem to part with any. Those turquoise heels with the scalloped edge? I bought them specifically to wear with that one dress that I will never wear again. The shoes are ah-mazing. They make me smile. But where the hell am I wearing them? I’m serious. I’m trying to think of where I could possibly wear them. I’m going to have to start dressing up to go to the grocery store. Or meeting in a park with friends. Ooooh the green pointy toe flats…. I can get away with those with jeans. I’m sure I can rationalize most of them…. they’re coming with me. They’re all coming.
