As I tried to cram one more t-shirt into a drawer (and it wouldn't fit so I tried another), the reason why I'm not spending my entire spring break away from home was reinforced!
I have to stay home and organize!
I have clothes that I've had FOREVER! Seriously, I have a smock top that I had as a junior in high school! But every year when I look in my closets at the clothes that are taking up space, I think, "Oh, let me give it one more year."
Then, the way fashion recylcles itself, I think if I hold onto it, I'll be saving money.
I have storage space that make most people envious. I need to be able to utilize it more efficiently.
Plus, there are people who will actually wear what I don't wear if I donate it. It does nobody any good stuffed in a drawer.
It's not as if I'm a "depression" child and grew up without. Sure, I felt as if I was doing without because I wasn't dressed in designer, but that's different. Don't know where this need to hoard clothes comes from. Maybe it's because it's attached to memories. It reminds me of the guy from Clean Sweep when he helps people downsize their stuff. He would agree that it's time to say goodbye!
Another benefit - I won't pull a muscle trying to close or open these drawers!

It's from your Dad...mom
Good idea. I need to do the same thing and get rid of some clothes.
I know you were concerned about the picture I used on my blog but I did get it off of the internet. My dad won't let me use my picture on the internet.
