Shirley~I,m getting the hang of it Report 26 Oct 2016 14:21

Felt at at last i was ready to clear hubbies wardrobe

i have already passed on his jackets and jumpers and good shoes to the local charity shop ,plus passed on for recycling his jim jams ,undies socks etc .

Couldn't go the whole hog though and empty his wardrobe full of shirts ,trousers , big selection of good ties etc

with the help of grandson we cleared it all out , got 4 black bin bags of manageable weight and have taken them to the local Sense Charity shop

i had signed up with them for gift aid so they can reclaim VAT

I had to wait till I was ready and today was the day .

really felt calm as i sorted and bagged . i know hubby would say "silly cow I cant wear em can I so let someone else get some use out of them"

He was very much into charity , he helped as much as he could afford with collections at his local catholic church which he attended every week

Thanked grandson for helping and told him grandad would be very pleased he had helped me

Feel very much at ease that its all done now , I have kept his dressing gown, hearing aids wallet ,watch and walking stick and these will be kept and not got rid of
