We kept our house as Mom used to say "Clean enough to be healthy, and dirty enough to be happy." My MIL house was a museum where the grandkids could not touch, or even stay (we always got a hotel). Sometimes Moderation is good. Yes, bearisgray I have been the original owner and hope when I donate it someone else appreciates it too. :) :) :)
And, yes, someone has to be the original owner. I donate a lot of clothes just because I'm tired of them or they are out of style/don't fit/just don't like anymore. I always hope that someone else buys them who will appreciate them. |
I think I would bet that a freshly washed garment purchased at a yard sale where the garage is immaculate would be as "clean" or "cleaner" than almost any garment found in a department store.
