Eh, I’m dieting so I can fit back into T shirts I gathered since I was in college. They’re currently in boxes since I couldn’t fit in them but didn’t want to toss them. But yes, I am also like Imelda Marcos when it comes to Tshirts.

I did give some away though. I think once I saw a homeless guy in a Catalina race shirt..

I got a shitload in totes I never wear and forget when I even bought them unless there is a date on them. I always where the one at the top of the drawer from 1997, haha, when the wash get done. I need to start wearing
more and re-cycling old ones for garage rags......

When I moved from CA to CO, I cleaned out drawers and box's of t shirts and hats. Put them in a dumpster in my driveway. The following week my gardners showed up. They looked like they were dressed for Desert Storm!!!! DCB shirts etc.

How the hell does one not destroy a tee shirt in less than 6 months. I go through them like crack to an addict. Always seem to stain them somehow then there in the work pile before shortly disposing of them.
Same. I just put on a new one this morning, already spilled coffee on it and snagged it on a toolbox drawer handle putting a nice hole in the sleeve already. lol.

I hit up Big Bend the other day. Bought 8 more T shirts. 6 pairs of Reefs, 4 board shorts and 5 hats.

I think I have 40 pairs of board shorts. From 36s to 42s. Depends on my current weight what ones fit.

They got the Buy 1 get 1 free sale going on for end of summer. Brought my Nieces and Nephews. And taught them how to shop and pay.

to tee shirts.................I just looked in my closet and stopped counting at 100......I think there is at least another 50 on the other side.
I'm probably down to 50 or so. Two piles. Slumming around the house and going out in public.
I must have chucked at least 50 when we moved. All were a size or so two too small but were usually from events/ places we were at when I bought them.
