What do I do to prepare for spring? I don’t feel I was quite prepared enough for this unusually beautiful spring bank holiday weekend.
I opened my wardrobe and saw too many wool sweaters and cardis, long sleeved tops,Β jersey dresses, and there was not a single pair of shorts!
This weekend has been utterly gorgeous. I had two days in the sun. I had to work on Saturday and I have to work for six hours today. Have to keep thinking about bringing in more pennies towards the Australia fund!
But I have realized I need to finish off packing my winter clothes away (I made a start a few weeks ago). I have already pulled out my storage bags from under the bed and I found some beautiful dresses. I want to fill my wardrobe with floral prints and floaty fabrics.
And I am also finding clothes that will be useful for my trip to Australia.
I also need to sort out my sun-glasses. I broke two pairs last year. I have two other pairs, but where are they? I need to hunt for them because after being out in the sun I had terrible head pain.
Well…I have to make sure I am already for next time we have a burst of beautiful weather here in England.

I love that when weather changes, we get to use the clothes we havenβt used in a few months. Almost like having new books nes!

Iβm not putting the jumpers away just yet. Iβm sure we have a pet that eats sunglasses, canβt think of the numbers Iβve lost.

I found two pairs in my bed-side table the other day and then I noticed a little Chinese bag on the back of my bedroom door that had two more pairs of sunglasses that I can’t remember ever seeing before.
So while your sunglasses are being eaten, mine are breeding.

Unless you are living in Yorkshire – you canβt have too many pairs of sunglasses

Since the injuries I received to my head…sunglasses are a must for me in bright sunshine. I never used to wear them before.

I think that I am more flabbergasted that you have a Winter/Spring collection. I wear the same things whether hot or cold (mind once home when it is winter it is very rare for me to go back out) but I live in yoga pants and shorts with tank tops. I do have some spring/summer dresses but rarely even wear those. Jeesh I have just discovered I am the tom boy who never really grew up lol. Have a good day Mel.

I think I got into the habit of having separate winter and a summer wardrobes when I first became a full-time volunteer. I had the tiniest wardrobe. So it was easier to just have clothes for the season and then I would leave my other clothes at the home of a relative and swap them every six months. I have a fairly small wardrobe now, but it is enough. But there is lots of space under my bed to store things.

I understand. I know others like you having separate wardrobes for seasons. ππ my mom being one
