Remember when these came out 20 years ago? It was considered a trend and to stay away from these unless you wanted to look like you were chasing trends. Well, 20 years later and they are still around. What are your thoughts on these shirts?

Tomorrow marks the first day with students. Finally! I am going to be having my ap euro kids do an activity where they go around the room to find artifacts that they can then use to create a profile of who I am. One of the artifacts will be a cookie menu that they get to order off. Pictured are said cookies they will get to choose from. Classic chocolate chip, double chocolate, lemon, and red velvet. The goal is to get kids comfortable using sources to create historical arguments, an essential ap euro skill, and to let them get to know me, in a more fun way.

When the time comes, do you lock yourself in the house or head out for an adventure? We are not talking about the movies. We are talking about your closet. Recently, I switched professions. At my old job, I wore a uniform, a navy polo with the company logo. Because I wore a polo to work, I tended to wear t-shirts on days off. Now I'm working a job where I get covered in oil and grease and don't wear a uniform. All my t-shirts got reassigned to work wear along with all my jeans. The uniform shirts went to a thrift store, leaving me with one threadbear polo, a pair of dockers, 2 suits and some dress shirts. The suits don't fit anymore. That leaves me with a few dress shirts and s pair of dockers to wear when I'm not at work. Not your traditional closet purge, but the end result is the same. I'm rebuilding my wardrobe from scratch 🤪 I'm of two minds about this. First of all, I'm excited at the idea of starting over. Each time I do, my wardrobe gets better in quality, versatility and personal image. On the other hand, this is where impulse buying, bad decisions and a fast draining wallet happen. What are some of your experiences with extreme closet purges? Do you love them, hate them? What is your overall strategy? I still have a full range of shoes, outerwear and accessories so it's not completely starting from scratch..
