Daily discussion post: look in your closet

[magnetic_pole]

What's the oldest item of clothing in your closet right now? How old is it? What's the story behind it?

(And we're looking for folks interested in hosting the conversation for a day or two in April! If you're interested, let us know over here.)

Were you young at the time? Is that why it was bought for you?

I hope the question brought up happy memories of her and not painful ones. M.

She had multi-infarct dementia, and she hadn't been 'there' for 6 months before she died. I was 21, my father had died 6 months or so previously, and I just wasn't coping.

That was a really hard time for you, I'm sorry to hear it. *hugs*
