Twirlie - I get it. Had a pair of jeans with holes in the knees and ass before I finally sent them to the great clothes farm in the sky.
I have a long shirt/sleeper that needs to be in the discard pile, and something else that you've reminded me of.....
A pillow case that I swear I slept on when I was about 5. (when I left home for the first time, I stole it from my Mom's dresser drawer) And I bet she had it because her mom slept on it.
It's now in my bottom drawer and is so thin and worn that the flower print on it looks like you need CSI/DNA proof to know what it is....
I've had it for almost 50 years.
But I still miss my khaki pants that made my butt look good......
wombie - I don't care what others say, we know there are memories and feelings woven into some fabrics :)
Hege - I hope you do wear it till it self destructs! Worn comfy clothes are one of life's simple pleasures.
