"TINY HOUSES"....Could this Work for Some?

[IrishAyes]

113. Well, since my income peaked and tanked partly due to one of the businesses I had -

horse ranching - I had to learn to conserve even when things looked flush. The downside to that was a terrible resistance to letting anything go. Now that I'm retired, I'm starting to clean out. Would you please tell me what ANY woman needs with 48 scrub tops, no matter how pretty they are? I never bought the medical prints but some of the others can be attractive for regular wear. Since I'll live here until I die, there's zero chance I'll ever need evening or business clothes again, so what am I doing with that stuff no matter how pretty? With a local clothes closet selling good used donated clothing, some of brand new with tags still on, for 10 cents, I can't even tell myself better keep this because so you'll always have something nice to wear when the other stuff wears out. Can't claim I couldn't afford to replace a decent wardrobe for $10 tops.

After long study about it, here's what I've decided I basically need for my life now: 2 weeks worth of undies, 3 or 4 pair of jeans, 5 or 6 shorts with pockets, 7 winter tops, 7 summer tops, 7 transitional tops, 5 or 6 skirts, and a few casual dressy outfits for church. Plus a funeral dress for winter and summer. 5 pair of sneakers, 5 pair of boots, 5 crocs, and 1 or 2 dressy flats. 2 coats, 2 jackets, assorted winter accessories like hats, gloves and scarves. The list could still be culled.

No way I'm keeping 48 scrub tops, even with a big house.
